Apple has just dropped the fourth developer beta for iOS 26, giving us a sneak peek into the updated Liquid Glass design and the comeback of AI-powered news summaries. The public beta is expected to follow soon!
Exciting Updates in iOS 26 Beta 4
iOS 26 beta 4 introduces a fresh “Welcome” screen and informative guides for Siri, AI-powered notifications, and the revamped Camera app. Early testers have also noticed refinements in the Liquid Glass interface, with dynamic tints in the Notification Center as you scroll through notifications.
AI Summarization Feature
Apple faced some hiccups earlier this year with the AI summarization feature, but they’re back on track with clear warnings about potential changes to headlines. The setup screen advises users to verify information to avoid misunderstandings.
What Else to Expect in iOS 26
The latest beta includes a dynamic wallpaper that changes colors and new CarPlay wallpapers. While the release notes haven’t been fully disclosed yet, we can anticipate minor bug fixes and performance enhancements. Stay tuned for more updates on iPadOS 26, macOS 26, watchOS 26, tvOS 26, visionOS 26, and Xcode 26 betas!
