iOS 26 Quietly Adds Full Per-Contact Call History as Apple Refines Alarms and AirPods

Access the view from a contact’s Recents entry to see a chronological record with timestamps plus call length details.

Overview

  • From Phone > Recents, select a contact and tap Call History to open the extended log.
  • The view lists every incoming, outgoing, and missed call with exact date, time, and duration, often reaching back months or years depending on stored data.
  • Wccftech reports the call history data resides on the device rather than pulling from carrier records or old backups.
  • iOS 26.1 beta 2 changes Lock Screen alarms so stopping requires a Slide to Stop gesture instead of a tap.
  • Apple released AirPods firmware 8A358 for AirPods Pro 3, AirPods Pro 2, and AirPods 4, continuing accessory updates aligned with iOS 26 features.
