iOS will now ask you for your iPhone passcode and once you enter, it'll start downloading the update. Your device may restart a few times during the update process and at the end, you'll successfully boot into the iOS 26's Hello screen.

And that's it. Your iPhone will run the latest stable version of the OS that Apple calls iOS 26 and will be opted out of the beta channel automatically. You'll now be able to use all the new iOS 26 features like Liquid Glass, Call Screening, the redesigned Camera app, Adaptive Power Mode and more.
