Apple has recently rolled out the highly anticipated iOS 26 Beta 3 update, bringing a host of new features and bug fixes to iPhone users. This update addresses a major issue that previously caused ringtones to not work when receiving calls on affected devices. With the latest beta release, this bug has been resolved, offering a smoother user experience.
One of the standout features introduced in this update is Visual Intelligence, which allows the device to recognize screenshots and provide additional functionalities. Users will now see "Ask" and "Image Search" buttons when viewing a screenshot, enabling them to ask questions or search for related information based on the image content.

Additionally, Apple has expanded the color options for the default iOS wallpaper, offering users more choices to customize their device's appearance. The default wallpaper is now available in Shadow, Dusk, Sky, and Halo colors, adding a touch of personalization to the interface.
Improvements have also been made to the battery life of iPhones running the iOS 26 beta, with some models experiencing reduced overheating and lagging issues post-update. These enhancements aim to enhance the overall performance and efficiency of the devices.
The stable version of iOS 26 is expected to be released in September, coinciding with the launch of the new iPhone 17 lineup. Until then, users can look forward to each beta update introducing exciting features and addressing critical issues to enhance the user experience.
