today,Apple has pushed the iOS 26.1 RC update to iPhone users, build number 23B82.iOS 26.1 RC is the quasi-official version of iOS 26.1. If there are no major bugs, this will be the last update before the official version is released. The official version is expected to be pushed to users next week.

It is understood thatThe iOS 26.1 RC version has a new liquid glass special effect switch, which uses high transparency by default. Users can switch to the "hue" mode in the settings, which can reduce the transparency effect and improve readability.

After the update, the lock screen sliding camera can also be turned off.
Previously, you could quickly open the camera by swiping left on the lock screen. Although it was more convenient, it was also easy to accidentally touch it. Now you can choose to turn it off in "Settings - Camera - Swipe the lock screen to open the camera".
It is reported that the update has also expanded Apple Intelligence to more languages, adding support for Danish, Dutch, Norwegian, Portuguese (Portugal), Swedish, Turkish, Traditional Chinese and Vietnamese.
Unfortunately, Bank of China’s Apple Intelligence is still not available.
It has been previously reported that Apple hopes to expand Apple Intelligence to the National Bank version through iOS 18.6, but has been repeatedly delayed due to regulatory issues.
Now that iOS 26 has been updated to multiple versions, the Chinese version of Apple Intelligence is still far away.
At the Global Wealth Management Forum 2025 Shanghai Suhewan Conference in mid-October, Apple CEO Cook revealed,Apple Intelligence is currently working hard to enter the Chinese market.
