Apple Seeds Second Public Betas of iOS 26.6, macOS Tahoe 26.6 and More

Apple today provided public beta testers with the second betas of i OS 26.6, i Pad OS 26.6, mac OS Tahoe 26.6, watch OS 26.6, and tv OS 26.6, with the software coming a day after Apple seeded the betas to developers and three weeks after the first public betas. After signing up to beta test the software updates on Apple's beta site, public beta testers can download the new software using the Software Update section in the Settings app on each device. i OS 26.6 has a feature that will let you know when you have blocked too many contacts, but the limit is in the thousands so most users may not ever see the messaging. There are also signs of a new iPhone anti-snatching feature that locks a stolen iPhone when it's grabbed from your hand. No other major new features have been found in any of the software updates, with Apple likely focusing on bug fixes and security improvements. We're nearing the end of the "26" software cycle, with Apple planning to release iOS 27, iPadOS 27, macOS Golden Gate, and more this fall.
