The iPados 26 Public Beta is now live, which means that you can check some new features in the best iPads. This is not a small update, so you want to be ready before diving.
I have used iPados 26 for the previous month, and I can tell you that it is a very enough upgrade. Not only does it introduce liquid glass design language which is also coming in iOS 26, Macos 26 and Watchos 26, but it has new features that make your iPad feel like the best MacBook. Other productivity-focused features and Apple intelligence updates toss, and there is much for iPados 26.
If you have signed up for iPados 26 Public Beta and want to know what the new operating system is, then there are some characteristics that you should try first.
Liquid glass
Liquid glass design is the thing that stands the most on iPados 26. This said, the new form does not seem as prominent as it appears on iPhones. It is very difficult to ignore liquid glass later, but I sometimes forget that this is a thing for iPad. He said, you can create liquid glass effects, if you want, you can actually stand out.
In the customized submenu of iPad on the home screen, you can choose a new clear option. Clear apps removes all colors and makes them transparent. If there are bold colors in your background, which effectively make your apps and widgets invisible (as seen in the example above).
With the right background, however, transparent apps and widgets may look great. You should play with liquid glass to see how you like it.
Wind -system
I wrote earlier how the new iPados 26 window system can be a productivity game-changer. Now, I can unevenly say that this Is Extremely useful if you want to use your iPad as a MacBook replacement or even as your main tool for work. This may not be correct, but it is a big step to be productive on an iPad.
The new windowing system offers you off for your choice, at least, shape changing, shaping and tile windows. The latter is designed for an iPad screen, from which you snap windows with a quick swipe. A clean aspect is that every time you will open back to the same place and shape in any app you have earlier.
If you have an iPad, this is a major feature that you need to check!
New apps
You will see some new apps on iPados 26, including games, previews, journals and phones. Before you say this, yes, I realize that apps like journal and phone are not new at all. However, they are new on the iPad, so they count technically.
The game app conducts games that you have established to establish and make it easier to launch. The Journal app from the iPhone is a good addition and can be easier to use on iPad compared to iPhone, especially if your iPad is connected to an apple magic keyboard.
Preview lets you see, edit and mark PDFs and images with apple pencil or touch. You can access all your PDFs and images in the file app from preview, create an empty page, use Apple Pencil to write and write on it, and use autofils to fill the PDF form.
Then we have the phone app, which, as you may have guessed, allows you to call and receive phone calls on your iPad. Old jokes about iPads are just large iPhones that cannot call now only half is true.
menu bar
The menu bar ipados 26 and also works as well as the Macos. It has red, yellow and green circles close, at least and full screen (respectively). You can reach these controls by dropping the cursor down or moving the cursor up.
Mac’s menu bar on iPad is strange and comfortable together. Funny, because I am still not using the menu bar on the iPad, but it is intuitive because it works largely on MACS. This is another great feature that can promote your productivity and is well versed well.
Image playground
The image playground gets a good upgrade on iPados 26. This has expanded features and tasks, such as the ability to generate images to Chatgpt. By doing this you get access to many different visual styles like oil painting, watercolor, anime and more.
Your advantage depends on how often you use AI to create images. He said, this chatgpt-driven image playground quickly generates images adequately, although the images may not be very accurate … such as the image above which reflects a very wrong manhattan horizon.
