Apple has pulled iOS/iPadOS 26.2 beta 1 for C1 devices. This includes: iPhone Air iPhone 16e M5 iPad Pro (Cellular) The update will still show in settings but will fail to install. pic.twitter.com/mcW715tHuJ — Aaron (@aaronp613) November 6, 2025 Marcus Mendes for 9to5Mac: ‎ As noted by Aaron Perris on X, Apple is preventing the iOS 26.2 and iPadOS 26.2 betas from being installed on devices containing the C1 modem, which includes the iPhone 16e, the iPhone Air, and the M5 iPad Pro (Cellular). It is not immediately clear why Apple has pulled the betas for these devices, but it is notable that they all include the C1 modem. We’ve reached out to the company and will update this story if we hear back. Update – November 5, 10:11 p.m. ET: Apple has reissued the iOS 26.1 Release Candidate for the iPhone 16e and iPhone Air, and iPadOS 26.1 Release Candidate for the M5 iPad Pro (Cellular), allowing users running previous betas to upgrade to a more stable version without leaving the beta program. ‎ MacDailyNews Take: Yes sir, the beta program is functioning as designed. ‎ Please help support MacDailyNews — and enjoy subscriber-only articles, comments, chat, and more — by subscribing to our Substack: macdailynews.substack.com.
