Apple has seeded the first beta of iOS 26.4 to developers, introducing several new customization features for the iPhone. The update focuses on enhancing user personalization options for the Home Screen and system interfaces.
Key new features include the ability to apply color filters to Home Screen app icons independently of system-wide Dark Mode settings. Users can also create more granular custom layouts for the Control Center, rearranging modules with greater flexibility than previous versions allowed.
These changes follow user feedback requesting more control over the visual design of iOS, which underwent a significant interface update with the "Liquid Glass" theme in iOS 26. The beta is currently available for registered developers, with a public beta expected to follow in the coming weeks.
A final public release date for iOS 26.4 has not been officially announced by Apple. The company typically follows a multi-week beta testing period before a general rollout.
