Of course, you don’t want to forget important appointments. In iOS 26, Apple has included a new feature that can help with this!
This new iOS 26 feature ensures you’ll never forget anything again
Apple has made the Reminders app a lot better in iOS 26. With the new ‘Urgent’ option you will certainly no longer forget appointments. The option ensures that you also receive a reminder when a focus is active or the sound on your iPhone is turned off.
If you set a reminder to Urgent, your iPhone will actually treat it that way. In practice, it feels as if you are giving the important memory a kind of VIP status. This is of course perfect for things that cannot be left behind, such as renewing your passport, a deadline for school or work, or that dentist appointment that you would otherwise have to reschedule.
Setting up is quite simple. While creating or adjusting a reminder, you can set the slider for ‘Urgent’ to on. To do this, follow the steps below:
Set an urgent reminder on your iPhone
- Open the ‘Reminders’ app;
- Tap the plus sign in the blue dot;
- Enter the details of the reminder and set the slider for ‘Urgent’ to on.
Biggest change in iOS 26
The most noticeable new feature of iOS 26 is the so-called Liquid Glass-design. This ‘glass’ appearance gives your iPhone a new look with a modern, transparent appearance.
The effect can be seen, among other things, in app icons, some of which have a transparent or glass-like background. Widgets and notifications have also been updated and given a new look. They have become transparent so that the background remains subtly visible, as if you were looking through it.
