Apple’s iPhone 17 launch event came with eight new gadgets including four new iPhones, three new smartwatches, and the AirPods Pro 3 earbuds. Apple also used the launch to release dates for its upcoming software updates.
The iOS 26 release will see the iPhone 11 or later get an upgrade, and the software will land on Monday, Sept. 15. The same date will see launches for iPadOS 26, watchOS 26, macOS Tahoe 26, and even visionOS 26.
It’s likely your new phone will be able to download iOS 26 from 10 a.m. PT / 1 p.m. ET on Monday, if Apple follows its normal release schedule. You may have to wait a couple of hours for it to become available on your phone.
