Prepare your iPhone for iOS 26 - 6 things I do before every update
"Apple's latest mobile operating system, iOS 26 -- yes, if you've not been keeping up, that's what will come after iOS 18 -- is landing real soon (September 15), and it'll be pushed out to hundreds of millions of compatible iPhones worldwide within a few days. For the most part, the vast majority of these upgrades will be smooth and painless. Maybe I'm being overly cautious here, but, as someone who's experienced a painful upgrade,"
"The good news is that if your iPhone is running iOS 18, then there's a very good chance that you'll be getting iOS 26. In fact, everything from the iPhone 11 and iPhone SE 2nd gen onwards will get iOS 26, and the only iPhones running iOS 18 that won't get upgraded are the iPhone XS, XS Max, and XR. Also: Every iPhone that can be updated to iOS 26,"
iOS 26 will be released on September 15 and will be pushed to hundreds of millions of compatible iPhones worldwide. Most upgrades are expected to be smooth and painless, though some users have experienced painful upgrades and prefer taking precautions. Devices running iOS 18 are likely to receive iOS 26; iPhone 11 and iPhone SE (2nd gen) onward will be supported, while iPhone XS, XS Max, and XR will not be upgraded. Before installing iOS 26, free up space by removing unused apps and deleting unnecessary videos and media, and perform backups and basic checks to reduce risk.
