Today, Apple officially released iOS 26.2 for iPhone 11 and newer devices, which includes new Lock Screen customizations for you to adjust the opacity level, as well as the ability to use AirDrop with people who aren't in your contacts by sharing a one-time code with them instead. There are also new updates going out for macOS, iPadOS, visionOS, and watchOS.
The first iOS 26.2 beta came out in early November, followed by beta 2 a couple of weeks later. Things have now progressed past the beta stage and Apple is seeding the second release candidate for iOS 26.2 (the first one came out a week ago).
