(NEXSTAR) — It's mid-September, which can only mean one thing for holders of Apple technology: a massive iOS update is afoot.

During its highly anticipated Apple event last week, the company confirmed the date in which the next update, iOS 26, would be released.

Apple tends to follow the same release schedule every year. In June, it teases its upcoming devices and software updates, and in September, it makes both available. First, though, it hosts an Apple event outlining all the specs (that's what happened on Tuesday) and then the new tech becomes available the following week.
