Apple in iOS 26.2 will disable automatic Wi-Fi network syncing between iPhone and Apple Watch in the European Union to comply with the bloc's regulations, suggests a new report.

iOS 26.1: Bring Back the Tap-to-Stop Alarm Button

Apple has changed how you dismiss iPhone alarms in iOS 26.1, and your morning muscle memory may have needed tweaking as a result.

Snoozing still works with a simple tap, but turning off an alarm entirely demands the extra swipe motion.... Read more
