Like It or Not, iOS 26 Is Here. What to Know About the iPhone Update

iOS 26 adds real-time charge time estimates and a screenshot magnifier loupe to improve usability, features discovered by users after the update launch.

  • Apple added several low-profile features in iOS 26, including a restored screenshot magnifier loupe that users are discovering after the update.
  • The reviewer noted Apple did not prominently advertise where to find many of the new features, leaving users to discover them over time in iOS 26.
  • In Settings > Battery, iPhone users see estimated times to reach 80% and 100% charge, updating in real time to help plan quick top-ups.
  • Take a screenshot, tap the preview, open Markup and choose Add Loupe, then drag the circular magnifier and resize it with blue handles while the rest remains normal.
  • Some tweaks in iOS 26 small features are subtle but become indispensable once users find them, and several simplify annoying tasks, Tom's Guide author noted.
