iOS 26.4 brings a surprise twist for app lovers! The latest beta update introduces a design change that will make some users happy and others scratch their heads. But here's where it gets interesting: two apps are now sporting an iOS 18-inspired look, and it's a design choice that might divide opinions. iOS 26.4 beta 2 has arrived, and it's not just about the search bar's new position. Let's dive into the details and explore the controversy that might unfold. iOS 26.4 makes two app updates that bring back iOS 18 designs. iOS 26.4 beta 2 arrived today for developers, with two app changes that reverse iOS 26 search designs to be more like iOS 18. Last week, iOS 26.4 beta 1 debuted with some peculiar design quirks in the App Store app. The beta revised the search design in two ways: the search button was integrated into the tab bar, and the search bar was moved to the top of the screen. These changes were a direct nod to the iOS 18 design, where the search bar was a standard navigation tab at the top. But here's the twist: in beta 1, only the App Store app showed this old-school iOS 18 look. It raised questions - was it a bug or a deliberate design choice to highlight the App Store ad? Beta 2 puts an end to the speculation. Now, the Apple Games app has also adopted these iOS 26.4 changes, bringing the iOS 18 design back to life. So, are you a fan of the search bar at the top or bottom? Share your thoughts in the comments!
