Apple’s iOS 26 with the new Liquid Glass design is now available to everyone

Apple’s iOS 26 software update for iPhone is available for iPhone 11, iPhone SE2 and later for users today. IOS 26’s Marquee feature AppleIt includes elements on the screen that is similar to a “glassed” look. Other features include screening assistant, a new gaming and preview applications, translation of applications across the system and updates of genomo and image playground applications.

The operating system update has been through a large number of changes as they jump from Apple iOS 18 to iOS 26 for two main reasons. First, it wanted to bring in all the operating systems in the sync – iOS, iPados, Macos, Watchos, TVOS and Visions. And it also wanted to reflect the number of years where most people would use this update.

Fluid

Liquid glass design has become the most significant visual overhall for iOS year after year. With this re -design, Apple’s purpose was to inspire the Vision Pro interface and apply it to all its operating systems. The elements are meant that they are made of transparent glass. As a result, the background elements as a result of the challenges.

How Apple has changed since June “Glassi” The appearance of the interface Multiple times through beta release. Although the company is releasing a stable version of iOS 26 today, we can expect visual tweets for advanced readability and use in the coming months. This visual change can take some time to adjust the users and they cannot like the specific components right now.

Apple app

The phone app has a new unified appearance where your choice is at the top of a card format with resents and voicemail on the same screen. You can tap the filter button in the upper right and see these categories individually. (If you don’t like the new interface, Apple gives you the option to switch to classic look))

IOS 26 also brings a call screening feature on the iPhones, which is a personal favorite. When an unknown number calls you, the system asks their name and the purpose of the call. Once they give this information, the system requests Ringer and informs you the call. You can see the conversation and interact anytime at any time. The transcript of the voicemail does not work well for all languages, but the call screening has reduced the number of calls I had to pick up.

There is also a holding assistance when a restaurant or helpline holds you; You can use call assistance when an agent starts talking again.

The message app is featured with WhatsApp and Telegrams, the new conversation flow, poles, text selection, picture preview and other chat applications along with other chat applications on groups. Apple is working SMS filtering for years nowThe The agency says it has updated its spam filtering with this publication. Also, it keeps the message of unknown sender in a new folder. I don’t like this update I don’t like one thing that takes several taps to go to the transaction tab.

Overhole of the Games app means that the games you are playing (or played), can see arcade games, challenges and achievements in one place, as well as in addition to the advice of new titles. The app shows you what your friends are playing.

Apple has finally added Mac’s preview app to IOS 26, which means you can easily edit, comment and sign PDFs.

Meanwhile, Apple Music is now automatic for switching to dynamic songs with song translation and pronunciation. What’s more, you can pin your favorite songs and playlists.

With iOS 26, Apple maps allows you to define the preferred routes when traveling. If the choice of your route has a more traffic or an incident, the maps send you a notification as well as advising you alternate route. The app allows you to see the places visited easily through the new place library.

The camera app of iOS 26 only adopts liquid glass design with defaults to video and photo options. You can scroll to the left or right to switch into different modes. Apple has left some control like flash and knight mode in the upper right and you can turn on/off them with a touch. For more options like filters, styles, exposure control and timer, you can swipe from the bottom of the screen.

If you do not like the design of the previous Photos app, The tabs are back In this version.

AI

Unlike Apple Intelligence’s last year’s Grand Launch, this year’s operating system is light on AI features, especially the features launched and delay in rolling out. The company is easily creating AI-driven translations on applications like message, facetime and phone. Currently, this feature supports English (UK, US), French (France), German, Portuguese (Brazil) and Spanish (Spain).

Through iOS 26, the company is also launching live translation on airpods, including Newly launched Airpods Pro 3, Airpods Pro 2, and AirPods 4.

IOS 26 updates visual intelligence to understand the content of the screen. You have to press the Power + Volume Down button to fetch this menu. Apple intelligence can then suggest events to add to your calendar. You can ask questions about the content of the screen using Google Visual Search or Chatzipt. Apple is highlighting its own “Circle to Circle” as highlights.

The most confusing part about this update is that the buttons used to bring on-screen visual intelligence are equal to the screenshot button. Because of this, it takes additional steps to save a screenshot and I forgot to save some important screenshots.

Apple is updating Genmoji with IOS 26 so that lets you merge two emoji with a text prompt and create something new. You can now add an expression to both the genomes and the image playground. Updates on the playground of the image allows you to correct the new style from the chatzPT as well as the hair and facial hair.
