Overview
- Apple seeded seventh developer betas and fourth public betas across iOS, iPadOS, macOS Tahoe, watchOS, tvOS, and visionOS as it nears the fall rollout.
- The latest iOS 26 and watchOS 26 builds re-enable Blood Oxygen for Apple Watch Series 9, Series 10, and Ultra 2 units sold in the U.S., with results viewable in the iPhone’s Health app.
- The reinstated feature follows Apple’s software change that processes raw sensor data on the paired iPhone rather than on the watch, addressing restrictions tied to Masimo’s patent dispute.
- A new Adaptive Power Notifications toggle in Settings lets users know when iOS adjusts performance to conserve battery life, with Adaptive Power supported on iPhone 15 Pro and newer.
- The betas continue refining the cross‑platform Liquid Glass design and Apple Intelligence features, and Apple indicates the final releases are planned for this fall.
