iOS 26 has been unveiled at the latest WWDC'25 developer summit, showcasing Apple's most significant software redesign in years. Along with the new Liquid Glass aesthetics, reminiscent of older operating systems, iOS 26 is bringing a game-changing feature that enhances the usability and convenience of Apple devices.
This feature, known as universal captive Wi-Fi sync, allows Apple devices connected to the same Apple Account to sync Wi-Fi login information automatically. This means that if you log in to a Wi-Fi network on one Apple device, all other devices linked to your account will be able to connect without going through the login process.
This feature, available on iOS 26, iPadOS 26, and macOS 26, streamlines the networking experience across the Apple ecosystem, making it more intuitive and user-friendly. Notably, this functionality is something that Google Pixel and Samsung Galaxy phones currently lack.
The introduction of universal Wi-Fi captive sync sets Apple apart in the realm of seamless connectivity and demonstrates Apple's commitment to enhancing user experience with innovative features.
