Apple is preparing to roll out iOS 26.2 in mid-December, with the update currently undergoing testing, according to reports from MacRumors. While the release includes notable changes aimed at users in Japan, it may also introduce a range of features and refinements that will be available to iPhone owners everywhere. Here is a full look at what could be coming in the next iOS update.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n According to the MacRumors report, the <\/span>Reminders app<\/span><\/a> could receive one of its most significant enhancements in years. A new alarm option lets alerts behave more like traditional clock alarms. Toggling the new <\/span>Urgent<\/i> setting when creating a reminder activates this mode. When the reminder goes off, users will likely see options to snooze or stop it, with snoozed items showing a countdown on the Lock Screen. Apple differentiates these alerts with a new blue hue and provides an introductory splash screen after updating, along with an in-app banner to highlight the feature.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n iOS 26.2 could reportedly expand<\/span> Lock Screen personalisation<\/span><\/a> with a new Liquid Glass slider for the clock. Using the Glass style, users may fine-tune the appearance from almost fully transparent to a more frosted look. A Solid switch remains available for those who prefer an opaque clock, and colour customisation continues to be supported.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\nReminders gains alarm-style alerts<\/strong><\/h2>\n
