Apple has released new versions of its software platforms including iOS 26, iPadOS 26, macOS Tahoe, watchOS 26, tvOS 26 and visionOS 26. The updates introduce a unified design called Liquid Glass which adds a translucent look across apps and system controls. A key focus is on Apple Intelligence which now supports live translation in calls and messages, visual intelligence for images, and a Workout Buddy feature that provides spoken motivation during exercise.
iOS 26 adds new customization options for the Lock Screen, call screening and features like polls in Messages. iPadOS 26 introduces a new windowing system, menu bar and an improved Files app, while macOS Tahoe upgrades Spotlight with powerful new actions and a redesigned interface.
Apple Watch gains sleep scores and FDA-cleared hypertension notifications alongside new workout insights. Apple TV now supports sing-alongs with iPhones as microphones, and visionOS 26 improves spatial experiences with new widgets and realistic Personas. Accessibility updates include systemwide reading options, braille access, and live captions. The updates are available today as free downloads, though some features may be limited by region or device.
