iOS 26 beta 7 introduced several fresh updates. The standout feature was a revamped Blood Oxygen functionality — also present in iOS 18 — in addition to a new Drafts tab within the Messages app and a fresh toggle for the Adaptive Power setting, along with overall enhancements and stability improvements to prepare the updates for public release.
As the Release Candidate versions approach, users of iPhone and iPad are preparing for one of the most significant upgrades to their devices in years. As we have highlighted repeatedly in recent weeks, iOS 26 represents the most significant enhancement to the iPhone’s software since iOS 7, while iPadOS 26 takes the iPad closer to being a viable laptop replacement.
