Apple today seeded the second release candidate version of iOS 26.2 to developers and public beta testers, with the software coming one week after Apple seeded the first RC. The release candidate represents the final version iOS 26.2 that will be provided to the public if no further bugs are found. Registered developers and public beta testers can download the betas from the Settings app on the iPhone by going to the General section and selecting Software Update. iOS 26.2 has a Liquid Glass slider on the Lock Screen to adjust the transparency of the clock, plus it brings AirPods Live Translation to the European Union. The Reminders app now supports alarms for when tasks are due, and there are updates to the Podcasts and Apple News apps. Menu animations have been revamped, and CarPlay supports disabling pinned messages in the Messages app. We have a full list of all the features available in iOS 26.2 in our guide. iOS 26.2 will likely see a launch later this week.Related Roundups: iOS 26, iPadOS 26Related Forum: iOS 26This article, "Apple Seeds Second iOS 26.2 Release Candidate to Developers and Public Beta Testers" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums ...read more read less
