New versions of iOS are always a source of excitement for me, but iOS 26 has been even more so than usual. After the disappointment of Apple Intelligence last year, iOS 26 has more new features and improvements that I find genuinely useful.
It’s not without its irritations and disappointments either, as personally I’m still not sold on the Liquid Glass design it has introduced. But some of the other additions more than make up for that – particularly when it comes to calls and battery management.
