Download: Apple Releases iPadOS 26.1, macOS 26.1, tvOS 26.1, watchOS 26.1, visionOS 26.1

Alongside iOS 26.1 and iPadOS 26.1 that we already detailed, Apple has also released macOS 26.1, visionOS 26.1, tvOS 26.1, and watchOS 26.1 for compatible Mac, Vision Pro, Apple TV and Apple Watch devices.

You can head over to Settings > General > Software Update section of the device itself to grab the OTA Update on your respective devices.

These updates now available, but those hoping for big new features are set to be left disappointed. Instead, these updates are all about fixing bugs and tweaking existing features to fix problems that have been discovered in recent weeks.

Still, Apple did add some changes here and there, such as Liquid Glass setting now allowing you to choose between the default clear look and a new tinted look on macOS and iPadOS. This tinted look increases the opacity of the material in apps and notifications on the Lock Screen. Additionally, Apple Music AutoMix support has been added over AirPlay, and the FaceTime audio quality has been improved in low-bandwidth conditions.

Despite there not being any big new features this time out, we always recommend updating to the latest versions of Apple’s software whenever possible. These bug fixes are always worth having, as are any security fixes and updates that have been added to the mix.

We can also expect Apple to follow up with developer betas of iOS 26.2 and similar soon enough following the final release of version 26.1 for all its platforms.
