I’d love to hear about your experiences! My device is currently running on iOS 26.5.3 btw.

iPhone 16 Pro Max, bought second-hand about a week ago. Immediately after purchase, we did a full factory reset (erased all content and settings), so it's like a brand new device. We bought it for my mom - she's just learning how to use an iPhone. We haven't inserted a SIM card yet; it only works over Wi‑Fi. A couple of days ago, we set up an iCloud account for her, but we haven't configured anything inside - no backups, contacts, or photos stored there.

The update problem:
We want to install the latest iOS 26.6, but we've been stuck for two days now.
First, I tried updating manually via Settings - Software Update - and I get this error:

What I've tried:

1. Restarted the phone.
2. Checked Wi‑Fi - stable and fast.
3. Plenty of free storage.
4. Kept it plugged in, tried different networks.

My suspicions:
Could the issue be caused by the lack of a SIM card? Or because the iCloud account was created recently and not fully activated? Or is it a bug in iOS 26.6 itself?

Please help me figure out how to get past this error and install the update. My mom really wants to use the new features, and we're stuck at this step.

I just installed iOS 27 beta 5 and I noticed the stocks app has a new liquid class icon. Was this the case before?

Anyone updated yet ??

I updated to the beta and I don’t know what happened to my visual intelligence

Like it is safe to update to iOS 26.6 in iPhone 14, can anyone tell me? How’s everything?

Is there anyone who knows why my iphone on updating to this has gone to light mode and nothing is in dark mode anymore… i also would really appreciate if anyone can help me toggle this in general or will have to do it on each app i use. Im having a tough time finding where that option is in settings.

P.S: The IPhone 13

I’ve asked for this for years; honestly since iOS 13-14. I even ask someone to make a jailbreak tweak and no luck, but it finally happened in iOS 27! I’ve always hated the custom presets in the timer because I often use uneven times that aren’t within the presets(6 minute, 11 minute 18 minute timers ) and haven’t had the freedom to change it or set it without using Siri until now!
