iOS, Apple and iPhone

Apple is currently testing iOS 26.5. While the update is small, it introduces some notable changes—including ads in Apple Maps.
Apple today released iOS 26.4 and iPadOS 26.4, the latest updates to the iOS 26 and iPadOS 26 operating systems. The new software comes six weeks after Apple released iOS 26.3 and iPadOS 26.3. Subscribe to the MacRumors YouTube channel for more videos.
One of the more meaningful changes in iOS 26.4 is that Stolen Device Protection is now enabled by default, rather than requiring users to opt in. The feature, which adds biometric requirements for sensitive actions when your iPhone is away from familiar locations, is now on by default for everyone.
