iOS 26 Beta 6 Update Is Already Here: Get Set For The Big Release Next Month
Last Updated:
iOS 26 beta updates are coming in quick and it seems Apple has set the deadline to have the full version ready ahead of the iPhone 17 launch.
The iOS 26 beta updates are coming in thick and fast as Apple sets the countdown for the big iPhone 17 launch next month. The latest iOS 26 beta 6 version is rolling out for eligible iPhone users this week, who are again seeing a more stable iOS 26 version along with minor changes/additions to the platform for the users.
With every new beta update we are getting close to the public release which will be confirmed by the company in the next few weeks. If you have downloaded the iOS 26 beta earlier, the beta 6 version will feel iterative but equally important for the evolving nature of the platform.
iOS 26 Beta 6 Update: What It Brings
More Ringtones
Apple continues to sell new ringtones as a big point, so much that people highlight it with the new features. The company has added new versions to the Reflection ringtone such as Buoyant, Tech, Pop and Surge among others. And there is a new Little Bird ringtone added to the mix.
Liquid Glass Effect For More Places
The toggle button and even the lockscreen UI now sees a different shade of the Liquid Glass design that focuses on being more transparent than before. You also see it work on the passcode screen as well as the navigation bar with updated highlights.
More Changes Noticed
There is a new video that explains the iOS 26 Liquid Glass design changes which probably makes sense. The company has removed the toggle button to activate the classic mode for the camera.
It is clear that the beta update 6 is a lot lighter than version 5 which has more significant changes, including battery alert on the dynamic island, new AirDrop icon and new Wi-Fi labels.
