Apple Seeds First Betas of iOS 26.4 and iPadOS 26.4 to Developers Juli Clover | usagoldmines.com

Apple today seeded the first betas of upcoming iOS 26.4 and iPadOS 26.4 updates to developers for testing purposes, with the software coming less than a week after Apple released iOS 26.3 and iPadOS 26.3.



Registered developers can download the betas from the Settings app on the iPhone or iPad by going to the General section and selecting Software Update.

iOS 26.4 and iPadOS 26.4 could be significant updates that will introduce several new features. We were counting on the betas to include the smarter, more personalized version of Siri that Apple first debuted at WWDC 2024, but Apple has apparently run into issues that could see some or all ‌Siri‌ features delayed until iOS 26.5 or iOS 27.

We could still get some new ‌Siri‌ capabilities, such as tools for generating images and searching the web.

The update is also expected to include new emoji characters, such as trombone, treasure chest, orca, landslide, and Bigfoot.

iOS 26.4 and iPadOS 26.4 are limited to developers at the current time, but Apple will likely release a public beta in the next week or two.
