A couple of weeks after seeding beta 2, Apple is now releasing iOS 26 beta 3 to developers. Here's what you need to know.
A couple of weeks after seeding beta 2, Apple is now releasing iOS 26 beta 3 to developers. With that, if Apple follows the trend, we expect the first public beta of iOS 26 to be available as soon as this week. At this moment, it's unclear what's new with the latest iOS 26 beta 3. Still, you should expect more bug and battery-draining fixes.
One of the new design changes include a new clear look for iPhone icons. For the Messages app, iOS 26 beta 3 adds customizable backgrounds for the chats and polls. Regarding Apple Intelligence features, iPhone 15 Pro or newer can take advantage of Live Translation, a new AI-powered Shortcuts app, and improved Image Playground and Genmoji functionalities. Beta 3 of iOS 26 is available alongside the third testing versions of iPadOS 26, macOS Tahoe, watchOS 26, tvOS 26, and visionOS 26.
