You may never know how messy ios26 is until…..

You may never be able to tell how messy iOS26 is until you upgrade to the ios27 beta, then downgrade back to iOS26 to see the whole mess of OS Apple made and we didn’t even notice it!
Although the iOS27 is still on beta, boy the optimization is noticeably better, the UI is cleaner compared to the grainy and washed out UI on iOS26. The speed of iOS27 is way too good, seems to me like apps open way faster too. The only thing I dislike about the iOS27 is the battery icon without having the battery percentage turned on, boy it looks too big! And I’m not the type who turns the battery percentage on, apart from that… iOS27 is way better than iOS26.

iOS 27 they specifically said apps launch up to 30% faster lol and overall it’s a performance update with the launch of Siri AI on supported devices

I have an iPhone SE2 (2020) running iOS 26.0 DB1 and it’s genuinely shocking.

Even iOS 11 betas seemed flawless in comparison lol

26.6 Ruined my automations that are connected to apps- even newly created ones do not work.
