Users can now experience a refreshed look as the new icons are integrated into the system. This change reflects Apple's continued evolution in user interface design.

Apple has released a beta version of iOS 16.6, which includes a fix for the Liquid Metal bug affecting the Control Center. This update aims to improve the user experience by addressing the screen freezing issue and enhancing overall device performance. Users participating in the beta program can now test these improvements ahead of the official release.

Apple has released the fourth beta of iOS 26, introducing changes to the Liquid Glass interface, the return of Apple Intelligence Notification Summaries for news, and updates to the Camera app and CarPlay wallpapers. Additional features include a new toggle in the Weather app, a renamed "Reduce Loud Sounds" option, and enhancements to call screening and the Passwords app. These updates are set to improve user experience and functionality ahead of the public beta release.
