"Apple's iOS 26 for iPhone is now available to download. The star of the operating system is the all-new design language known as Liquid Glass, which introduces a translucent layer to various interface elements that mimics the physical properties of real glass-including the way light shines and refracts through the material. But iOS 26 is about more than just a pretty new digital face. The new operating system also adds some compelling new productivity features that make Apple's smartphone a more helpful tool for work"
"Now, with the new operating system, your iPhone gains a feature called Call Screening, which enables your iPhone to answer the unknown call for you by playing a message for the caller, which asks them to identify themselves and state a reason for their call. Once they do this, your iPhone will alert you to their response so that you can decide whether to take the call. If you decline, the unknown caller will be sent to voicemail."
"One of the most common interruptions to our workflow is phone calls. And given that U.S. consumers received over 4.1 billion robocalls in August alone, the chances are good it might be spam. Yet this isn't always the case. One way to distinguish between a call you need to take and one you don't is by glancing at the iPhone's caller ID."
iOS 26 introduces the Liquid Glass design language, adding translucent layers and realistic light refraction across interface elements. The update also delivers several productivity enhancements that make the iPhone more useful for work. One notable feature is Call Screening, which answers unknown calls with a prompt asking callers to identify themselves and state a reason. The iPhone then alerts the user to the caller’s response, allowing a decision to accept or decline; declined calls go to voicemail. Call Screening can be enabled in Settings → Apps → Phone under Screen Unknown Callers, with options: Never, Ask Reason for Calling, or Silence.
