iOS 26 is finally here, and in this video I break down 10 features you need to know—quickly. I start with the lock screen customization, because there’s a lot you can tweak now. My favorite part is the big time widget, and the Spatial 3D option that makes portraits look insanely good. I also show the new transparent “glass” icons, how to switch between light/dark, and why I’m personally not a big fan of the fully clear look—I keep it darker because I like having some color on my phone. From there I jump into iMessage backgrounds (the Aurora background is the one I like the most), and the new emoji-combining feature using Genmoji—though it’s limited to iPhones that support Apple Intelligence. I also cover accessibility tweaks like Reduce Transparency and increasing contrast if the glass effect makes things hard to read. Then we get into practical stuff: the new charging indicator that shows time-to-full-charge, Adaptive Power mode for better battery performance (again, Apple Intelligence required), and the refreshed camera interface that makes switching mode/resolution/frame rate way easier. Finally, I show lens cleaning hints and the Spatial Scene effect that makes photos pop.
