iOS 26 is here: Top 5 hidden features you might be missing out on
Apple has finally released iOS 26 for iPhone 11 and later devices, with Liquid Glass design, which aims to provide transparent menus and fluid animations that adapt to the on-screen activities. However, there are some unnoticed key features that provide quality-of-life upgrades to a user. We have now highlighted some of these hidden features to improve your experience with iOS 26.
1/5
Spam filtering
With the iOS 26 update, Apple has introduced a new spam filtering feature that automatically filters out junk or spam calls and messages. This way, users won’t have to install third-party apps to block out junk calls and messages, and the system will automatically stop alerts for suspicious job offers, false security threats, and other common scams.

Custom ringtone
Android users have been able to set custom ringtones on their devices for years now. However, iOS users were required to create custom tracks on apps like GarageBand to apply as a ringtone. Thankfully, with the iOS 26 update, Apple has allowed users to set any track as ringtone by using the Sound and Haptics menu.

Copy a selection of text message
There is FINALLY an option to copy just part of a text in the Messages app, with the latest iOS 26 update. Earlier, users were forced to copy the whole text message, and this feature will now allow users to copy a phone number, address, URL, or a custom part from a message.

Spatial Photos and Wallpapers
Another cool feature in iOS 26 is the ability to turn regular photos into spatial photos with a 3D depth effect and subtle motion. You can even set a spatial photo as your lock screen, and it gives your screen a whole new transition effect while pressing the lock screen button or tilting and moving the device.

Adaptive power mode
In the Battery settings of iOS 26, a new Adaptive Power tool lets you choose between Low Power and Adaptive, which adjusts performance and background activity on an iPhone. So, if you're streaming music at home, the phone will use less power, while during heavy tasks like gaming or recording video, the phone will push performance.
