What's up guys? My name is Brandon and
00:00:01
today Apple released iOS 26.2 beta 2 to
00:00:05
registered developers and soon to public
00:00:07
beta testers. Now along with this
00:00:09
release, we also got the second beta for
00:00:12
iPad OS 26.2, watch OS 26.2, Mac OS
00:00:16
Tahoe 26.2, tvOS and HomePod version
00:00:19
26.2 along with Vision OS 26.2. But of
00:00:23
course in this video we are focusing on
00:00:25
iOS 26.2 beta 2 and everything new in
00:00:28
the software. So let's start by taking a
00:00:30
look at the build number. So if we head
00:00:31
into our settings general about the new
00:00:33
build here is 23C5033H.
00:00:38
And if we go back and check out the
00:00:39
modem firmware version that is 1.20.05
00:00:43
for the iPhone 17 series. All right. So
00:00:46
now what's new here in iOS 26.2 beta 2.
00:00:50
And the very first thing I noticed is
00:00:52
that we have multiple new animations in
00:00:54
this update that make iOS 26 feel a lot
00:00:57
more like the demo that Apple showed at
00:00:59
the Worldwide Developers Conference when
00:01:01
they first unveiled the liquid glass
00:01:03
design in iOS 26. So the first one I
00:01:06
want to show you is on the home screen
00:01:08
right here. If you tap on the edit
00:01:10
button right here, take a look at this
00:01:11
animation. So if we go and tap on edit,
00:01:13
you could see it has that kind of
00:01:15
teardrop, that raindrop style of
00:01:18
animation. Now, if we compare that to
00:01:20
beta 1 and every other version of iOS
00:01:22
26, take a look at this. So, this is
00:01:24
what it looked like in iOS 26 through
00:01:26
iOS 26.2 beta 1. But here's what it
00:01:29
looks like in iOS 26.2 beta 2. You can
00:01:32
see a pretty obvious difference there in
00:01:35
the animation. I think it looks a lot
00:01:36
better. It looks a lot more fluid and
00:01:38
like what Apple showed us to begin with.
00:01:40
Now, this is also not just exclusive to
00:01:43
the home screen. This is throughout the
00:01:45
menus in iOS. So, if we go into photos,
00:01:47
for example, if we go into our photos
00:01:48
application and we tap on the three dot
00:01:50
menu right here, you could see that
00:01:52
animation also happens with this menu
00:01:54
inside of photos. And you will notice
00:01:56
that throughout iOS with the menu
00:01:58
system, they all have this new animation
00:02:00
style. Even in the music application, we
00:02:02
tap on the three dot menu right here.
00:02:04
You can see that the menu comes out with
00:02:06
that new animation style. Now, I do also
00:02:08
just want to clarify that this animation
00:02:10
does not have any lag. As you can see
00:02:12
right here, there is no lag when I pull
00:02:14
out this menu right here. and it has
00:02:16
that animation. So, in the screen
00:02:17
recording that I shared on Twitter or X,
00:02:19
it did look like there was a hitch, like
00:02:21
some type of lag, but that's an issue
00:02:22
with screen recordings. I've been facing
00:02:24
that for years on many iOS versions,
00:02:26
going back many iOS versions, but you
00:02:28
could see there's no lag there. Now, we
00:02:30
also have a few new changes to the
00:02:32
reminders application with beta 2. So,
00:02:34
as you guys know, with beta 1, we saw
00:02:36
the introduction of urgent reminders and
00:02:38
getting alarm for your reminder. So, now
00:02:41
iOS 26.2 2 beta 2 expands on that and we
00:02:44
get a brand new splash screen here. So
00:02:46
it says introducing urgent reminders. So
00:02:48
we have get an alarm, mark a reminder as
00:02:50
urgent and get an alarm when it's due.
00:02:52
We have snooze, snooze your alarm if you
00:02:54
can't get to it right away and also stay
00:02:56
reminded if you choose to snooze or
00:02:58
stop. A live activity remains to let you
00:03:00
open, reschedule, or complete the
00:03:02
reminder. So that's a brand new splash
00:03:04
screen right there. Now in the actual
00:03:06
application, we have some changes as
00:03:07
well. And actually notice this from the
00:03:09
very beginning. So you'll see with 26.2
00:03:12
beta 1 on the left, 26.2 beta 2 on the
00:03:14
right, we have Siri suggestions that now
00:03:16
has a new look and it doesn't actually
00:03:18
say Siri suggestions anymore. It just
00:03:20
says suggested list and it shows
00:03:23
groceries automatically categorize
00:03:24
items. So if I tap on that, it will take
00:03:26
me there. So I'm not entirely sure if
00:03:28
that's the same as Siri suggestions, but
00:03:30
that was showing up in the place of it.
00:03:31
And my series suggestions no longer show
00:03:33
up here on my main menu. So that's
00:03:36
interesting. It doesn't seem like it was
00:03:38
the same because it shows something
00:03:39
different in my series suggestions. But
00:03:40
that is something new I noticed here
00:03:42
with beta 2. But the bigger change comes
00:03:44
when we actually go into a reminder. So
00:03:45
if we go into our reminders right here,
00:03:47
we go ahead and to edit one of our
00:03:49
reminders or just create a new reminder.
00:03:50
We'll just create a new one. When you go
00:03:52
to create a reminder, you'll notice that
00:03:53
now with beta 2, you can see the urgent
00:03:56
toggle. Whereas before, you were not
00:03:57
able to see the urgent toggle until you
00:03:59
selected not only a date, but also a
00:04:02
time. only then would the urgent toggle
00:04:05
appear right here inside of your
00:04:07
reminders application. But now you could
00:04:09
see it from the very start. And also if
00:04:11
you just select a date, you could also
00:04:13
have the urgent, you know, reminder go
00:04:14
off at a date and it will choose the
00:04:16
default date for you at 6 p.m. whereas
00:04:18
before you had to manually go ahead and
00:04:20
do that yourself. So in the first beta
00:04:22
of iOS 26.2, we saw that the podcast
00:04:25
application added automatic chapter. So
00:04:28
now if a podcast host does not, you
00:04:30
know, manually enter in the chapters for
00:04:32
that episode, Apple will do it using
00:04:34
automatic chapters, which is extremely
00:04:36
helpful and extremely useful. Now
00:04:38
there's a small change with beta 2, but
00:04:40
if you take a look underneath of
00:04:42
chapters, we now have a little magic
00:04:44
glyph icon to the left of automatically
00:04:47
created right there underneath of
00:04:49
chapters. But the feature itself works
00:04:50
the same. And you can see that when you
00:04:51
scrub across on the little now playing
00:04:54
bar, you can see that all the animations
00:04:56
show up the same. It's just that small
00:04:57
change there with the glyph when you tap
00:04:59
on the chapters. Now, also new in iOS
00:05:02
26.2 beta 2 is a brand new animation
00:05:04
that might be one of Apple's best. Now,
00:05:07
it might not be as practical, but just
00:05:09
looks wise and just how it appears and
00:05:11
how it transitions is amazing. So, in
00:05:14
the measure application, if you go into
00:05:16
the level right here, here's what it
00:05:17
looked like on all of the iOS 26
00:05:20
versions. So, it looked like this. You
00:05:21
have these little, you know, balls and
00:05:22
you can see kind of how it levels out
00:05:24
everything right there. there. So, it's
00:05:25
just using these little circles right
00:05:27
there to do it. But take a look at how
00:05:29
that looks with iOS 26 point to beta 2.
00:05:32
Take a look at the bubbles, the
00:05:34
animation right there. It uses liquid
00:05:36
glass and you can kind of see the
00:05:38
refraction from the numbers inside. So,
00:05:41
obviously, it's not going to be super
00:05:43
readable at some sections. So, hopefully
00:05:45
Apple will fix this and kind of update
00:05:47
that to look better, be more readable.
00:05:49
But, this animation is just top tier.
00:05:51
Like, it's just so fun to play around
00:05:53
with this. And you can see how it goes
00:05:54
side to side. And just these liquid
00:05:56
glass circles are pretty cool, I have to
00:05:58
say. And I'm not sure why it was red
00:06:00
right there, but here's what it looks
00:06:01
like when it's black. And you can kind
00:06:02
of see the numbers are a little bit more
00:06:04
legible when it's black. But you can see
00:06:06
what this looks like now in 26.2 beta,
00:06:09
too. I'm sure Apple will continue to
00:06:11
tweak this to make it a little bit more
00:06:12
readable when it gets to like the center
00:06:14
like this. But I don't think it's too
00:06:15
bad. I just think it's a really cool
00:06:17
animation. Now, we also have a minor
00:06:18
change to liquid glass with beta 2. And
00:06:20
that is if you tap and hold on the X
00:06:22
button for notification center to clear
00:06:24
all notifications. That's now been
00:06:26
updated with the liquid glass design.
00:06:28
So, before if you haptic press on that,
00:06:30
you could see this is the bubble that
00:06:32
you would get. That is not liquid glass.
00:06:34
And it's also a lot more squared off
00:06:36
than something you'd see with liquid
00:06:38
glass. But now, in 26.2 2, Beta 2. If
00:06:40
you have to press on that same X right
00:06:42
there, you can see you get a liquid
00:06:44
glass design that's circular and it's
00:06:46
also more clear and it just matches the
00:06:48
liquid glass aesthetic. And there's also
00:06:50
a slightly new animation for that as
00:06:52
well. So, we have to press on that. You
00:06:53
could see that's the animation, whereas
00:06:55
now that is the animation. So, it's a
00:06:57
little bit slower and smoother, whereas
00:06:58
this one's a little bit quicker and like
00:07:00
jolty, it seems like, than beta 2. So,
00:07:02
nice update there as well on the lock
00:07:04
screen. This update also brings a new
00:07:06
splash screen for the free form
00:07:08
application. So it says organize your
00:07:10
content, attach objects, flexible
00:07:12
layouts and style your tables. So we
00:07:14
have tables now in free form and I
00:07:17
believe a similar splash screen appeared
00:07:19
in beta 1, but I got this one again here
00:07:21
with beta 2. So of course tables is
00:07:23
something new in free form and they are
00:07:25
highly useful if you're somebody who
00:07:26
uses this application a lot. So you can
00:07:28
go down here and you can go to add table
00:07:30
and you can customize that table right
00:07:32
here. And then taking a look at the
00:07:34
release notes, there's not a lot
00:07:35
mentioned here for the release notes in
00:07:37
26.2 2 beta 2. But there is one that's
00:07:39
interesting here. So, this is a current
00:07:41
bug that does have a workaround. So, it
00:07:43
says devices set to everyone on 26.2
00:07:46
beta 1 are not discoverable by devices
00:07:48
on 26.2 beta 2 when it comes to AirDrop.
00:07:52
But, as you can see, the update is to
00:07:53
just simply update both devices to beta
00:07:56
2 of iOS 26.2. Now, as far as the
00:07:58
performance and battery life goes here
00:08:00
on beta 2, so far so good for me with
00:08:02
performance. I did run a quick Geekbench
00:08:04
6 test. So we scored a 3812 9877. You
00:08:07
can see how that compares to beta 1
00:08:09
right here. So it was higher in the
00:08:11
multi-core slightly lower in the single
00:08:13
core. So obviously not always a telltale
00:08:15
sign of exactly what to expect from
00:08:17
performance, but I would expect the
00:08:19
second beta to be very similar to the
00:08:21
first beta when it comes to performance.
00:08:22
Of course, we should see a gradual
00:08:24
improvement with performance, but it
00:08:26
doesn't always work that way. So I will
00:08:28
keep monitoring the performance on beta
00:08:30
2. I will be running this on my main
00:08:31
device as well. I do run these betas on
00:08:33
my main device, so I will update you
00:08:35
guys, you know, if anything changes with
00:08:37
performance. But so far, everything
00:08:38
looks good to me. I'm not really
00:08:39
noticing any type of issues so far. Now,
00:08:42
as far as battery life goes, I'm
00:08:43
currently at 75%. You guys might have to
00:08:45
go back to the beginning and see what I
00:08:47
started the video with, but so far,
00:08:49
battery life seems pretty good. I mean,
00:08:50
I really had no issues with the first
00:08:52
beta when it comes to battery life on my
00:08:54
main device. It was very similar to 26.1
00:08:56
in terms of beta. So, we'll have to see
00:08:58
if that continues here with beta 2. But
00:09:00
once again, I will give you guys an
00:09:02
update in my Apple Weekly episode if
00:09:03
anything changes for the better or for
00:09:05
the worse. Now, as far as what to expect
00:09:07
next from Apple, so next up is going to
00:09:08
be iOS 26.2 beta 3. Now, we should be
00:09:12
seeing that next beta most likely next
00:09:15
week. So, next week is the week of
00:09:16
November 17th. That is when we should
00:09:18
expect to see iOS 26.2 beta 3. So, after
00:09:22
that, we should be seeing a beta 4 and
00:09:24
then potentially an RC and a final
00:09:26
release at some point, most likely in
00:09:28
mid December. So maybe the week of the
00:09:30
15th is when we could see that final
00:09:32
release for iOS 26.2.
00:09:35
But of course, we'll have to wait and
00:09:36
see on that for sure. Now, in the
00:09:38
meantime, like I mentioned last week, we
00:09:40
should also expect to see a 26.1.1
00:09:43
update before the final official release
00:09:45
of iOS 26.2. That's most likely just
00:09:48
going to be a bug fix update, security
00:09:50
patch update as well. So to patch up
00:09:52
some security issues and also to patch
00:09:54
up any type of bugs that were lingering
00:09:56
after iOS 26.1. So there you have it,
00:09:59
guys. That is iOS 26.2 beta 2. A really
00:10:01
nice update for these new liquid glass
00:10:04
animations throughout iOS. I'm really
00:10:06
digging those new animations. And of
00:10:07
course, the big one for the measure
00:10:09
application as well. When you go into
00:10:11
the level, that's also a really cool new
00:10:13
animation. So glad to see that. Not a
00:10:16
huge update by any means, but of course,
00:10:17
we should continue to see new features
00:10:19
and changes throughout the beta cycle of
00:10:21
26.2. But anyways, if you guys enjoyed
00:10:23
this video, let me know your thoughts
00:10:24
down there in the comment section below.
00:10:26
Let me know your favorite feature and if
00:10:27
you discover anything else, feel free to
00:10:28
let me know down there as well. And I
00:10:30
will cover any additional features and
00:10:32
changes that I missed in my Apple Week
00:10:34
episode on Saturday. So stay tuned for
00:10:36
that. But anyways guys, thanks for
00:10:38
watching and I'll see you
00:10:39
