The Camera app is probably the most-used app on the iPhone. Here's everything you need to know to get started using the Camera in iOS 26.

Apple's latest iOS update doesn't introduce major features, but it does bring one highly-requested tweak: the ability to change the transparency of the translucent liquid glass design.

OS 26.1 beta 4 adds a Liquid Glass transparency toggle, Lock Screen camera control, Apple Intelligence updates, and Apple TV rebranding ahead of public release.

OS 26 gives the Camera app perhaps its biggest overhaul yet, but users might find some of their favorite features missing. Here’s why.

Another change ushered in by iOS 26 is the introduction of an expanded Visual Intelligence tool, part of Apple Intelligence. It leverages AI to analyze what’s on your phone screen, or what your camera is looking at—so you can use it to identify objects, for example, or pick out a date and time from a flyer and add it to your camera.

New features, performance boosts, and privacy updates. Get the full breakdown of Apple’s latest release candidate.

Apple is set to launch iOS 26.1, currently in the Release Candidate phase for beta testers. This update aims to enhance the user experience with design tweaks, improved gestures, and new features like the “Liquid Glass” toggle for interface customisation.

Apple has just released the iOS 26 update, and it brings a bunch of new features to the table, alongside a new tool that lets you escape the effects of Liquid Glass design.
