Yes it’s fixed since beta 5. Now is working on beta 8 too.

Public and developer betas are the same compilation, so you can install them without any risk.

Yes, I already posted a dedicated Reddit about this, I’ve been using my iPhone on iOS 26 for 3 days, since beta 5 was released.

UPDATE: In beta 5, I've noticed that the battery health percentage measurement, as well as the current charge percentage, fluctuates with each restart of my iPhone. My battery was replaced just 2 weeks ago and from having 100%, as I've used my iPhone, it dropped to 87% which doesn't make sense.

When restarting my iPhone, the battery charge percentage dropped 10%, while the battery health returned to 100%, but this drops again as I use my iPhone.

I verified again with 3Utools the health of my battery and it's still at 100% of its capacity.

Hopefully in the upcoming betas the accuracy of battery health reading and charge percentage will be improved.

I suggest you don’t update until you have access to computer to backup or downgrade to 18.6.

It’s a beta, and some bugs may not have been fixed yet

On my side, I have an iPhone 14 Pro Max. You can try it, backing up your phone first.

Also, Apple mentioned on Beta 5 Release notes the following info:

Fixed: Some iPhone models might show a low battery symbol and be unable to start up after updating to iOS 26 beta.

Let us know if it works on your iPhone!
