FULL STORY
======================================================================Apples 
iOS 26 update becomes available to download today It will launch at various 
times around the world We'll tell you when you can expect to get the update 
where you are 

The iOS 26 update is the biggest change to Apples iPhone operating system in 
years, brining with it a new Liquid Glass design and tons of new features. If 
you've been waiting to get the iOS 26 update on your phone, nows the time, as 
it will be rolling out to users around the world as the day progresses. 

Apple usually opens the floodgates and makes its annual iOS upgrades 
available at around 10am Pacific Time. The company hasnt officially stated 
that that will be the case with iOS 26, but some careful sleuthing suggests 
that it could be. 

As MacRumors has noticed, Apples Indian website says iOS 26 is coming on 
September 15, while its Indonesian page lists September 16 as the launch 
date. The 10am PT launch time straddles the two dates in those locations  in 
India it falls on September 15, while it comes on September 16 in Singapore  
suggesting that this predicted launch time could be accurate. 

Want to know when youll be able to download iOS 26 where you live? Weve put 
together the following table to help you quickly see when the update should 
be available where you are.

When the time comes, open the Settings app on your iPhone and head to General 
> Software Update (note: we'd always recommend backing up your iPhone before 
installing a major update). Wait for the download to appear, then tap Update 
Now. Its best to do this while your iPhone is connected to a charger and 
using Wi-Fi, as the download can be large and the installation process may 
take some time. 

The download might not appear straight away, and it may be best to wait a 
while before attempting to update your device. Thats because huge numbers of 
people will probably be looking to install iOS 26 at the same time, which can 
put strain on Apples servers, leading to slow download speeds or the update 
being temporarily unavailable. 

If youre in no hurry, it might be worth waiting a few hours before attempting 
to install iOS 26, or even waiting a day or two to be on the safe side. No 
matter how long you give it, though, it wont be long until you get to 
experience the latest iPhone enhancements as part of the software upgrade.
