Apple Shares List of Nearly 200 Changes in iOS 26
After releasing iOS 26 today, Apple has shared a list of nearly 200 changes included in the software update, ranging from new features to minor tweaks.
Keep in mind that 200 changes does not mean 200 new features. The list contains even the smallest of changes across the operating system and Apple's built-in apps.
The vast majority of the changes in the list have already received lots of attention. Here are a few small changes that went somewhat under the radar:
- eSIM Quick Transfer now requires Face ID or Touch ID, with no passcode fallback, when Stolen Device Protection is active.
- In the Messages app, there is now a Drafts folder/filter.
- In the Podcasts app, there are more listening speeds, ranging from 0.5x to 3x. You can save your preferred speed per podcast.
Apple also shared equivalent lists for iPadOS 26 and macOS 26.
Throughout the week, we will be highlighting many of the new features in iOS 26, iPadOS 26, macOS 26, and Apple's other software updates, so stay tuned.
