In addition to its new Liquid Glass interface, which simulates the behavior of real glass, and its many other new products, iOS 26, successor to iOS 18, will also integrate safety features intended to protect children. Among these, an option will automatically blur the sexual content, in the shared albums of the photo app, as well as blocking a video call Facetime, if the system detects that one of the participants is stripped.
However, the beta version of the future Apple mobile operating system, expected this fall, reveals a surprise. This protective measure applies to all users, including adults, reports 9TO5MAC. As Idevicehelp noted on network X, Facetime, which will also benefit from real -time translation under iOS 26, automatically interrupts the audio and the video of a call if nudity is detected, regardless of the age of the participants. The user then receives a warning message and can choose to resume or finish the current call.
It remains to be seen if it is simply a bug in this beta version or if Apple ultimately plans to extend this protection of the Communication Safety functionality, to all users, contrary to what had been announced at the start, namely an activation limited to minors.
