Apple has seeded the second release candidate for iOS 26.2, indicating a near-future public release of the software update. This new build brings several aesthetic and functional enhancements to iPhones.
The most visually striking change is the introduction of a Liquid Glass design in the Measure app's level tool, replacing old indicators with fluid, translucent bubbles. This design language is also evident in system-wide menu animations, which now feature quicker, bouncier transitions.
