indeed. feel that apple is now at the limit of the new functions can implement...

now started to learn from microsoft to create those totally not important changes such as UI...

windows 10 -> windows 11.

other making all the useless changes, no actual difference.
e.g. when right click on a file or what under windows explorer, by right i can see all options at once one...now need to click 'show more options' to see those other menu options.. which is totally redundant and make it even less efficient.

wish they bring back the Old Photo album , the current one sux

at least they brought back the separate album tab

Has anyone brave enough to install and test yet?

i don't have extra iphone.
so i would not dare to install it on main device.

Read from macrumors feedback quite buggy. The main concern is apps like banking and other important apps might not work.

If you’re using it as main phone , please don’t install it , that’s what been mentioned by some of the websites 🥳🔥

yep. my backup phone is android. might upgrade my phone later next year either 17PM or 18PM so that my 15PM can be backup phone

after the jailbreak era, just update whenever there’s new software for public

in ios we trust 🦾

Noted ✅🍏

i wouldn't dare to take the risk.

the OS itself might not be the problem , the problem is alot of apps stil not compatible to the new OS , remember when android 15 was intro , pixel phone facing banking apps missing the Approval transaction button

Unless u have backup phone , otherwise u might have problem with those apps.

yes, ios 26 will bring back the old photo album

Installed it on my main device. YOLO.

So far it is just laggy. No crashes yet.
Banking apps that work: MAE, myPB, UOB, and RHB.

TouchnGo works too.

How bout cimb octo?

Don't have it on my phone. Sorry.

Ok, btw how did you download the beta, thru phone itself or itunes?

Through the phone itself. It's a developer beta so you have to enroll as a developer (very easy and straightforward), then check for software updates as you would normally do.

do u try doing transaction on those bank apps? can approve SecureSign or not?

Yeap. Works for me.

Ok will try it out tonight 😌

Just to let you know, the whole interface is not smooth at the moment. If you are ok with that, then go ahead.

Still deciding, will see how it goes tonight, might install it or just stick to 18.5 ios

I also thinking wanna update it or not, already downloaded the beta....
saw some utuber mentioned quite many bugs, so I'm waiting for next version maybe

Dont forget to backup your iphone ios18.5 first , before updating to ios26 beta

My 16 pro max didn’t appear for ios26 beta when i check thru software update via settings 🫩

So how do i turn it on under the settings? When i go to the system software updatebit didn't mentioned bout beta

Ur Apple ID needs to sign up with developer and public beta programme to see it.

https://developer.apple.com/

https://beta.apple.com/

Oh no wonder, btw thank you for the link 😉👍

Apple please fix & improve the Smart Invert function, I used it all the time. On current iOS 18.5, the function is abit buggy, example when you open Shopee the app looks like a x-ray image.

Already signed up for the developer and public beta programme , already got the ios26 beta option via system update thru settings

Thank you 🔥💕🔥

no prob bro.

but if it is ur main device, probably suggest not to try the beta especially developer beta which can be buggy.

I would not update to ios26 beta , it just i want to sign up to developer and public beta programme , just wanna to show off only that my phone got the ios26 beta option thru the system update 🤭🔥🤭🔥

Among all the features, I'm interested in Call Screening, as I often receive calls from banks for marketing purposes. I'm looking forward to seeing how it works.

Same here, so this call screening basically works like whoscall app right, when someone call us it will appear info like "coway agent" on screen, then if we not into the call, we can ignore or reject the call right 🤔🔥

I think more than that. It will give you a summary of the call, why the person is calling you etc. It seems the person need to mention the purpose of the call before you pick it up.
Demo:

This is great 👍🏻
been wanting something similar for years, glad apple made it 🍎

Installed on an old iPhone 12 mini for fun.

Damn laggy especially for the keyboard.

That's nice, very useful feature 🙂

It's great, soon say goodbye to spam call 😌

a polite way to avoid harassment 🙊

jailbreak during 3Gs - 8 plus era because of that transparent glass like icons, slammed video wallpaper at the background and customized own video ringtone, those were the good old days
🧑🏻🧔🏻‍♂️👨🏻‍🦳🎅🏻🧛‍♂️

Do you know if this is a US region lock, or is it available globally to all markets?

True 😉

Yes, during iphone 4 era, play all those mods and tweaks 😁

Now with iphone 16 pro max, no more for those things, waiting for ios26 this coming september 2025 😈

ya, not sure how useful for the ai to summary the purpose of the call before we pickup. if not automated call, scammer still can bypass by telling the AI something differently xD

No idea to be honest. I hope it’s for all markets since Apple didn’t mention it’s only for the US.

Yeah if the caller says something differently, this is something cannot be avoided.

call screening feature i hv a feeling won't be available here..

Pixel have a similar function a few gen ago... until now also not available

Oops. That's sad. The only feature that I was looking forward to.

Apple users can still hope.. since we got Apple store here

https://support.google.com/phoneapp/answer/9118387?hl=en

Need telcos to support as well. Well, again, it is something that Pixel already had in the past, but it became famous when Apple repackaged it under its iOS. It could be the norm in the future.

Got the same feeling too, we might not get it, lets hope for the best, finger crossed 🤞🙂🤞

no no, they mentioned used live voicemail. It is already available in IOS since 17
no need involve telco one, all you need to do is just change your phone region to US as it is currently support US (English only).

Once done, go to your Setting --> App --> Phone, the live voicemail should be there default on.

IOS26 just use AI to filter spam call only, current live voicemail is directly show you who's calling and for what purpose. Last time got experience it but I find it useless so chg back to MY xD

Another thing I want in iOS 26 is to have call recording conversations recorded automatic without having to press the icon on the top left.

Apple just do it.

No, it won't. This is about privacy issue. China phones don't bother about privacy, go and buy them.

Every company have their persistence of privacy, macam iphone for japan, u cant even silent the shutter sound even in silent mode 🤣

Looks I can't use iPhone as my main Fon if like this

Shutters sound can't shut off is the most annoying function

About not able to shut off the camera shutter sound, it’s by Japan law. Nothing to do with Apple.

When only able to be like this , that sick

Shutter sound can off by putting silent mode right

Not for Japan sets.

Not going to happen for iphone ✅😴

Privacy concerns bla bla bla from the West as usual but their CIA can peek into our Whatsapp chats instead.

As a user we didn’t install such app that can risk our privacy on purpose , that’s why apple didn’t have that feature or apps for their iPhone 🫨😨🥵

Correct also, privacy very important

We can prevent but we don’t search for trouble , biometric security would be the best to prevent phishing 😧😮😧🥵

actually u stil using alot of phone call? Most of the time my customer/family was on Whatsapp/Wechat/Messenger call / Voice record more than regularly call.

Those calling directly to my phone was actually scammer / or bank , unifi promoter

This post has been edited by chongkiatz: Jun 14 2025, 04:05 PM

Have to be careful with privacy cos nowadays scammers everywhere online

Yes, I use phone calling a lot cos my plan got unlimited free calls to any number. Also my Oppo Find X6 Pro can automatically record all the calls for me to replay & refresh my memory if I missed forget what's said during the conversation. That's why for important calls I use phone calling not Whatsapp voice calls

Yes , biometric security does it job to prevent it 🐔🐤🐔🐤

Quite sad… there’s nothing for pro max specific iOS. Like better windowing system or something.

Ipad os 26 is awesome

I’m guessing Apple holding back until foldable comes out.. but now use iPad to test waters

Biometric is necessary if got bank apps inside your Fon

A must for smartphones user , not only for bank app but for your privacy and safety to avoid phishing activity

Last year my honor 90 5g been phishing at the hospital by their staff during my check up and during bariatric gastric bypass surgery , they get into my facebook emails whatsapp to monitored all sorts of communication , even that time already set a passcode , they managed to hack it , then when near the surgery day , set biometric security which required fingerprints , then ive heard they mentioned not able get thru my phone anymore

That’s how you teach those losers 🐔🔥

Don’t hold your breath, judging by how slow Apple with their AI implementation, probably not in our lifetime

tested OCTO, MAE, AEON - all good

Seems like no call screening in MY





https://www.apple.com/os/ios/#footnote-4

Oh no. This is so sad as I was looking forward to this feature.

FYI, biometrics and passcode are different in the eyes of law and passcode holds a higher status.
in US law enforcement can legally forces you to unlock your biometric locks without warrant while pin & password is protected under 5th amendment.

Noted 🤩🔥

Can confirm it doesn’t work here as of now. I received 2 calls from unknown numbers and both came through like normal. Haven’t tried Hold Assist yet.

Change your region to US, Call screening is based on Live voicemail to function.
Not sure about UK/Canada/HK those, as long as you change the region and there is a Live voicemail (Setting --> Apps --> Phone)
This call screening should work once you enable live voicemail

Will I lose out any functionality if I switch region?

just change region only, everything still the same. And you get more functionality compare with MY. Since US have all the function beforehand, except some will not be able to utilize it if network carrier (US) is needed.

For ios26 you can set any song as your ringtones ( no apps required ) source from one of tik tok video https://vt.tiktok.com/ZSksvHLgg/

sounds good, but nowadays lesser people custom their own ringtones compare with years ago....maybe this will revive the trend?

I'm still using standard ringtones and notification tones 😅 for my 16 pro max 😐

Too lazy to use apps just to customise ringtones or notification tones, waiting for ios26 which makes lot easier, i guess 😏.. Definitely i will customise few songs as ringtone / notification tone when ios26 released on september 2025 😎

Bet lots of iphone user will use their custom ringtones & notification tones soon, or some might prefer standard tones, just like you mentioned it will revive the trend 🚀🚀

These days people silent their phones.

Agreed with you, just like my sister and brother in law, silent their phones most of the time, just vibrate when there is a call or any notification from the apps 🤔 How can they live with such quiet environment 😅
