iOS 26 to iOS 26.0.1
After updating to iOS 26, many users complained of bugs and battery drainage. It’s common, though, with all the major OS releases, and that’s the case across the aisle with Android too. To redress, Apple has now released iOS 26.0.1.
According to Apple, the update fixes bugs in WiFi, mobile network issues, app icons turning blank, etc., seen on some iPhones.

iOS 26.0.1 fixes
Apple said that iOS 26.0.1 comes with the following fixes and security updates:
- Wi-Fi and Bluetooth may occasionally disconnect on iPhone 17, iPhone Air, and iPhone 17 Pro models
- A small number of iPhone users may be unable to connect to a cellular network after updating to iOS 26
- Photos taken under certain lighting conditions with iPhone 17, iPhone Air, and iPhone 17 Pro models may include unexpected artifacts
- App icons may appear blank after adding a custom tint
- VoiceOver may become disabled for some users after updating to iOS 26
As for faster battery drainage, the issue should subside after a few hours of updating the OS, as the initial hours take more juice in acclimatizing with the phone’s system. Maybe a reboot would do the job.
When Apple releases a major iOS update, it first works with developers, and it takes months before the public release comes out. But still, it becomes normal when users on many different iPhone models see issues. It’s a general practice of releasing a patch to fix things. So, if you suffered any unlikely performance or functionality issues after the iOS 26 update, you may need to download and install the latest patch to solve them.
The update is available to iPhone 11 and later models, including the latest iPhone 17 Series.
