Apple on Tuesday released the fourth developer beta of its next big software update, iOS 26, which brings with it slight changes to its Liquid Glass redesign and the re-introduction of AI-powered notification summaries for news, among other updates.
The rollout arrived just ahead of the iOS 26 public beta, which is expected to launch later this week.
The developer betas are meant to give mobile app makers time to test their apps with Apple’s new software so they’re ready for the public launch of the new operating system in the next few months. Because of consumer demand for early releases, Apple for years has been offering public betas following its Worldwide Developers Conference in June. This allows iPhone owners to also get their hands on the updated software before its wider, global launch, but with fewer stability issues and bugs.
The latest developer beta (iOS 26 beta 4) largely reflects what users can expect in the coming public beta.
iOS 26 beta 4 introduces a new “Welcome” splash screen when you first update the software, plus introductory screens for various features, like Siri and its AI-powered notification summaries and prioritization options, as well as for iOS 26’s revamped Camera app.
