Tim Cook: iOS 26 is ‘by far’ Apple’s most popular beta ever

9to5mac.com Ryan Christoffel 2025-12-19 12:37:18

Apple reported huge quarterly earnings yesterday, and on the call with investors, CEO Tim Cook gave an update on how popular iOS 26, iPadOS 26, and macOS Tahoe are proving thus far. Whatever your opinion of the new Liquid Glass design coming in iOS 26 and Apple’s other updates, there’s no doubt it’s sparked a lot of interest. As compelling as new features might be for your iPhone, iPad, or Mac, there’s nothing like a fresh design to spur upgrades. And according to CEO Tim Cook, Apple has seen

Apple's next iPhone operating system is making several big changes to the iPhone experience. iOS 26 will give everything a more transparent, bubbly look in the Liquid Glass design -- and it also adds new live language translations to your calls and offers more protections against unwanted spam. But there are a number of changes that don't make splashy headlines. These include being able to set how many minutes you want to snooze, making an easy control center shortcut for reminders and having t

I tried iOS 26 as an Android user, and my biggest issue has nothing to do with Liquid Glass

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-12-19 14:00:59

Ryan Haines / Android Authority I’m a Pixel guy, have been for years — everyone knows it. So, you can imagine I was pretty pleased when Google unveiled Material 3 Expressive, and it looked like a refinement of the Pixel UI design that I already loved. And then came Apple with its new Liquid Glass interface as part of iOS 26. Simply put, I thought it looked awful. It was hard to read, and the original glass effects looked clunky. Now, though, I’ve given iOS 26 a shot. I’ve loaded it onto my iP

The Apple Watch Series 11 Needs to Catch Up to the Galaxy Watch in One Key Area

I'm nearing the end of my first month with the Galaxy Watch 8 and Galaxy Watch 8 Classic, and for the first time in nearly a decade of reviewing wearables, I'm reluctant to switch back to the Apple Watch. That hesitation comes down to one surprising new addition: Gemini on the watch. Samsung's latest watches were the first to debut with Google's Gemini AI assistant, and the experience has left a lasting impression.

Aamir Siddiqui / Android Authority TL;DR Apple recently announced it has sold over 3 billion iPhone units since its introduction in 2007.

9to5mac.com Marcus Mendes 2025-12-20 04:46:48

Whenever there’s talk of Apple making a big, splashy acquisition to help catch up in AI, someone inevitably points out that “Apple doesn’t acquire big companies like that”.
