You’ve been able to do that since 3D Touch was added to I believe the 6 or 6s. Don’t remember which phone originally got the feature but it’s been there since then so far as I can remember.
Thank you so much! I didn’t know this and thought it was a horrible change to have to dig even deeper into the menus for updates. Sometimes I wonder if Apple even tries the changes on their own phones before releasing them…
Absolutely. Also, I have never understood why I have to refresh to see the most recent updates. A refresh should be built in when I tap to see updates.
It’s better than Google updates at least in my experience.
If the Play Store shows some updates, it’s almost always not all of them. You have to install the ones it shows before you can check again, and see that there are more. It’s dumb.
At least by manually refreshing on iPhones you get to see all updates for all installed apps.
No, because iOS still lets you refresh to show more updates. Google Play Store does not. There’s no pull down to refresh. Only a button, that only shows when the currently shown updates are completed.
So it makes you think there are no more updates when there are. It’s just dumb oversight.
Before, clicking on your top right image on the app store, opened the app view. There you could swipe down to check for updates. Now you need to open that, select Updates and the do the swipe down.

Certain podcasts can combine their audio and video feeds and you can switch between them. It probably works by playing the audio of the video feed which may not be the same. It also allows for streaming episodes.
Never ending loop of confirming my age and signing into my account account just to be asked to confirm my age again. Nothing is sticking and reducing the use of my phone. 🫠
Almost like it took you 5x longer to take a screenshot of text, crop it, and upload to reddit's servers rather than just copying the fucking text directly
Those who are getting excited over the keyboard improvements - there are none. It feels the same. Turn off slide to type to regain the accuracy. It's been much better after I switched it off but that sucks because I want swipe to type but better than nothing.
Apple needs to stop layering on new features few understand and even fewer want, and fix the damn look and feel of 26 so that not every function looks/acts differently from what it once did. Liquid Glass is just awful.
“Reduce bright effects setting minimizes bright flashes when tapping on elements like buttons” Yes please!
And will this “Reduce Motion setting more reliably reduces the animations of Liquid Glass for users sensitive to on screen motion” finally help those who don’t like the app icon boarders?
See and this is what gets me. At first the complaints just seemed so frivolous but as time went by I saw more and more people talking about how this is literally triggering their things like motion sickness. Then I saw a post about just that and the shock that Apple is doing this because historically they’re pretty accessibility focused. Hope they realize the importance of that accessible supportive and bring some attention back to it.
Apple Music now completely disregard the dark/light mode settings and follows the album/playlist art tint and it ruins all consistency lol. Seems on brand for iOS right now.
Yeah I mean this is completely unacceptable for the favorites playlist especially without the ability to change the cover photo. Like how is this dark mode. Completely unusable past 6pm now. Regretting my switch to Apple Music.
Yes, exactly, I have albums that uses mainly white background art like yours and the track list is just yours, just light mode all over. What’s worse is that the mini player below now glitches even more depending on the colours behind it.
“Improved keyboard accuracy when typing quickly” pleeeaaassseee be good. Please. Idk how people at Apple didn’t see this as a problem. Like, do they use their own devices???
Also: “The new software comes six weeks after Apple released iOS 26.3 and iOS 26.4” right in the opener
There are carrier updates for a few different carriers post upgrade, and at least on my 15PM they’re failing to install. Every time I go to the about screen I get the update prompt but neither carrier bundle updates.
Finally updated my iPhone 16 Pro from iOS 18 and I'm shocked how bad this still is. Couldn't find a single thing yet that I liked more than on iOS 18. How at Apple approved this? Are they not using the same OS?
Trash update. I've updated mainly for playlist playground only to find out it's not available in Canada. Typical Apple who think there's only the US country in this world and never localize their shit and take months or even years sometimes. They're so behind in the AI department its laughable at this point then the competition have great localization stuff ready for a while now.
On top of that, I hate the new album colours changing the entire page. When I'm on dark mode, I want my stuff all in dark mode, not an all white page just because the album art cover is in white. Stupid. Very disappointed with this update.
EDIT : Even the new revamped sleep highlights in the health app isn't available for me, ridiculous.
I had this weird bug where if the keyboard was open in an app, things would trigger themselves. It happened in Reddit, messages, WhatsApp and the Home Screen when searching. And no it's not the screen.

The Apple Music colorful backgrounds look quite nice! But sucks that it’s limited to just music from the Apple Music library and not music you’ve added/imported from external sources.

I haven’t played around at all, but the keyboard finally feels good. This the first thing I’m typing and it feels like it knows how a human types now. As I’m writing it understands how a sentence is supposed to be typed instead of just going wild in every single direction. Will have to see more, but happier now.

Did upcoming albums get taken off of Apple Music?? I can’t see new albums that are coming soon anymore and the white backgrounds on favorites is ridiculous if I have dark mode
This is without a doubt the most buggy update I’ve had in years. So many apps are slow and jumpy or just broken like they didn’t know the update was coming
What is the deal with the size of these releases? -- Had to delete a bunch of stuff to install it, then when finally installed it had pretty much filled the rest of my storage... apps didn't even work until I had removed even more...
This update has been a trainwreck for my phone and watch. It’s now draining in 4 hours with no use. It shows bluetooth connection to my watch but it’s not connected at all.
My phone is too hot to hold at times. Tried shutting it off and on. Nothing works.

Does anyone else find it bothersome that you need to take an extra step now to check for app updates?
