Apple today seeded the second betas of upcoming iOS 26.6 and iPadOS 26.6 updates to developers for testing purposes, with the software coming three weeks after Apple seeded the first betas. Registered developers can download the betas from the Settings app on the iPhone or iPad by going to the General section and selecting Software Update. With iOS 27 set to launch in September, Apple is wrapping up work on iOS 26 . We are not expecting any major new features in the iOS 26.6 update, and it will primarily focus on bug fixes and performance improvements. The update adds new wording around blocked contact limits, letting users know when they have exceeded the maximum number of blocked contacts . The update might also include a new anti-snatching feature that locks your iPhone if it's grabbed from your hand.
