It does damage control
Just when you thought you got used to the iOS 26 update from Apple and its brilliant new aesthetic in liquid glass, Apple launched people in the form of iOS 26.0.1. The update, officially published on Monday, is Apple’s first attempt to put away the disorder left by the deployment of original iOS 26. And, let’s be honest, some of us already regretted our eagerness to update.

The iOS updates are always a bit of the roller coaster, and iOS 26 is no exception. People have reported all kinds of problems, such as the disappearance of WiFi and Bluetooth connections, virgin application icons and even really strange photo problems. Apparently, taking photos during concerts with bright LED lights could leave your photos as if they had been censored. Apple swears that this rare bug has now been crushed.

Apple says The fact that IOS 26 provides significant bug corrections and safety updates for your iPhone, including fixes for the following problems:
- Wi-Fi and Bluetooth can sometimes disconnect on the iPhone 17, iPhone Air and iPhone 17 Pro Models
-
A small number of iPhone users may not be able to connect to a cellular network after update to iOS 26
-
Photos taken in certain lighting conditions with iPhone 17, iPhone Air and iPhone 17 Pro Models may include unexpected artifacts
-
Application icons may appear empty after adding a personalized shade
-
The voiceover can become deactivated for certain users after update to iOS 26
So how are you on this fix? It’s easy: Open the Settings application, press General, then the software update and press the Big Blue button. Voila, your iPhone is on the way to a little fewer chaos.
Before you excite you too much, do not expect it to be a magic solution. IOS 26.0.1 are mainly bug corrections and minor stability improvements; No new features, no liquid glass overhaul. If you were not delighted with the new brilliant Apple look, well … Sorry, it’s not going anywhere. But if you have already bought iOS26, this update deserves to be entered to smooth some of the rough edges.

Apple has already done so: remember iOS 18.0.1 After iOS 18? Updates like this, marked by the additional decimal, are a definite sign of bug corrections and changes in stability rather than new flashy features.
So if your iPhone 17 or any iPhone running iOS 26 has acted, be sure to update. Your phone and mental health will thank you.
