Here are the iPads that support iPadOS 26 by Taras Buria iPadOS 26, announced at WWDC 2025 on June 9, introduces many upgrades to the iPad experience, which brings it a few steps closer to the long-promised "laptop replacement." The operating system now has a much better window management system that lets you place any window wherever you like it, a proper menu bar, and the classic window controls straight from macOS. On top of that, iPadOS 26 features the redesigned user interface with "Liquid Glass" elements that resemble the UI of Windows Vista and Windows 7 back in the day. Overall, the update looks promising, but not all iPads will be able to upgrade from iPadOS 18 to iPadOS 26. Here is a list of iPads that are compatible with the new operating system: iPad Pro 12.9-inch 3rd generation (A12X) and newer iPad Pro 11-inch 1st generation (A12X) and newer iPad Air 3rd generation (A12) and newer iPad 8 (A12) and newer iPad mini 5th generation (A12) and newer With iPadOS 26, Apple is dropping only one iPad: the iPad 7 with the A10 Fusion. From now on, iPadOS is only compatible with iPads running an A12 chip (regular or X). The first developer beta of iPadOS 26 is now available. Apple plans to start public testing in July, but exact dates are not available as of right now, so stay tuned for future announcements. You can also check out the full list of iPadOS 26 features on this page. If you have an iPhone and you also want to know what models are supported by iOS 26, check out this article. It lists all the iPhones that can upgrade to the new operating system and those that will remain forever stuck on the current iOS 18. -

iOS 26 Developer Beta is nearly 15GB in size so you must use a WiFi connection to download it as OTA on Cellular Data most likely won't allow it -

Here's what iPhone models support iOS 26 by Hamid Ganji After months of swirling rumors, Apple kicked off its WWDC 2025 event today. The event was mostly focused on a slew of new AI-driven features for Apple devices and the company's new operating systems, which carry the Liquid Glass design. However, iOS 26 was the flagship of the event as it posed to alter the user experience of Apple's best-selling product, the iPhone. During the event, Apple announced the list of compatible iPhone models with iOS 26. Here is the list: iPhone 16e iPhone 16 iPhone 16 Plus iPhone 16 Pro iPhone 16 Pro Max iPhone 15 iPhone 15 Plus iPhone 15 Pro iPhone 15 Pro Max iPhone 14 iPhone 14 Plus iPhone 14 Pro iPhone 14 Pro Max iPhone 13 iPhone 13 mini iPhone 13 Pro iPhone 13 Pro Max iPhone 12 iPhone 12 mini iPhone 12 Pro iPhone 12 Pro Max iPhone 11 iPhone 11 Pro iPhone 11 Pro Max iPhone SE (2nd generation or later) If you own any of these iPhone models, you can expect to receive the first iOS 26 public beta next month via the Apple Beta Software Program. Also, developers can already access iOS 26 beta through the Apple Developer Program. The stable version is expected to drop in September with the iPhone 17 series. The above list of compatible iPhones with iOS 26 also signifies the end of software support for iPhone XS, iPhone XS Max, and iPhone XR. It's important to note that these models might still receive security updates from Apple to safeguard the device against potential threats. Apple calls iOS 26 "our broadest design update ever." It includes significant upgrades and changes compared to the previous version, though the final thoughts about the experience will be determined after the first beta hits users' devices next month. iOS 26 is also heavily focused on AI capabilities as Apple has expanded the footprint of its Apple Intelligence suite to almost every corner of the operating system.
