iOS 26 Beta 1

So far I have have had the beta 1 on my iPad for a few hours now

-Things noticed so far

• little to no glitching for me personally

• every so often there is a glitch (it’s a beta so it’s to be expected)

- Thing I like so far

• the background for iMessage (I personally LOVE this)

•the translucent icons (I was worried I wouldn’t like it so to iOS 18 but I adore this)

• I really like the liquid glass look

I haven’t dug off into it much so really try everything else. It isn’t slow for loading things. The Developer Beta for iOS 26 is by far better than iOS 18 Developer Beta was!

2025/6/12 Edited to

The iOS 26 Beta 1 has created considerable buzz with its fresh features and performance improvements. Users have reported a smoother experience with little to no major glitches, although minor bugs are typical for beta versions. Among the standout features are the revamped iMessage backgrounds, allowing for greater personalization. The translucent icons add a modern flair that many users are finding appealing. Additionally, the 'liquid glass' aesthetic enhances the overall visual experience, indicating that Apple is keen on providing both style and functionality in this update. As more users begin to explore these features, feedback is anticipated to be vital in shaping subsequent beta releases. The community is particularly excited about the potential enhancements to performance and usability that this latest iteration promises. For those considering the switch, it seems like Apple's commitment to improving user experience continues to be a priority with each new beta release.

🫧 Liquid Glass UI: Looks sleek… but feels so inaccessible and messy to use. 👶 New app icons: Weirdly cartoony? Honestly harder to recognize at a glance. 📸 Camera app: Lost all the quick-access goodness. Extra taps = extra pain. 🔊 Volume/brightness popups: Why fix something that wasn’t broken??
