Brace yourself, folks! iOS 26 is about to undergo a massive revamp, making it the most significant refresh since iOS 7 in 2013. Here's what you can expect:

Widgets on iPhone and iPad are in for an adaptation too, keeping the original functionality intact. Even the Safari browser is set for a radiant makeover, with a more transparent address bar.
The Phone app will consolidate favorite contacts, recent calls, and voice messages into a scrollable window. But, fear not! This change is optional, allowing users to revert to the previous design if preferred.
As for the Preview app, it's coming to iPhone and iPad, offering a breeze through PDF files, complete with documentcombining, page adding, content removal, and annotations.
Rumors about app icons moving towards Apple Vision Pro's round design have been quashed, according to Bloomberg. They'll still sport their familiar forms, much to the relief of design purists.
