  Between July 27 and August 6, if your iPhone was already on iOS 18.7.8, Software Update showed "update to iOS 18.7.8" and would install 26.5.2 instead. Several liquid glass haters who were intentionally avoiding iOS 26 got screwed 💀 https://www.reddit.com/r/iphone/comments/1vfw3uk/psa_if_you_have_an_iphone_thats_currently_running/
