Recently, Apple rolled out iOS 26 beta for public testers worldwide. The new OS is expected to be released to users later this year, in September.
The latest iOS 26 comes with an all-new Liquid Glass user interface. It takes from visionOS.
It has a glass-like translucent UI, which promises to create a lively experience and make iPhone usage more enjoyable.
The new UI design extends to all aspects of software from the smallest elements users interact with every day — such as buttons, switches, sliders, text, and media controls — to larger elements, including tab bars and sidebars for moving through apps. It also extends to the Lock Screen, Home Screen, notifications, Control Center, and more.
If you want to experience iOS 26 first-hand before the official release later this year, users can install beta software.
However, it should be noted that only select iPhone models support the iOS 26 update. Users can check if the device is eligible to get the new update below.
