Apple's first iOS 26 bug fix update is out now.
A new OS launch always comes with its share of user complaints, and some bugs and battery problems are fairly typical following a big update. As expected, Apple has launched iOS 26.0.1, which includes some minor updates for the new OS. iOS 26 finally brings the new Liquid Glass aesthetic to your iPhone, among other changes.
If you have an iPhone whose software is up to date, you can download it now. Here's now.
Go to the Settings app
Tap "General"
Tap "Software Update"
Hit the big blue button
If you were hoping for one update that would fix all of your problems with iOS 26, that's not likely to happen with 26.0.1.
Per Apple's release notes, this is mostly a series of bug fixes rather than fundamental changes to how iOS 26 works. Issues that received fixes include WiFi and Bluetooth disconnection errors for iPhone 17 models, blank app icons, and unwanted artifacts in photos. That latter fix is likely related to a "rare glitch" some early testers identified while taking photos at concerts. Bright LED lights had been causing square blank spots to appear in some photos, and Apple said the bug would be fixed in an iOS 26 update.
If you don't like Liquid Glass, you can't fully turn it off. Still, bug fixes are bug fixes, so if you're already bought in on iOS 26, you might as well download the new update.
