Apple released iOS 26 beta 2 today, and the latest version of the forthcoming iPhone software update adds a brand new ringtone. Here’s what it sounds like.
New iOS 26 ringtone available as alternative to default in beta 2
iOS 26 beta testing is in full swing. Two weeks after the first beta shipped, Apple has just released iOS 26 beta 2.
As happens every summer, Apple has continued adding new features to its software during the beta cycle.
So far iOS 26 beta 2 has included various design revisions, a new Apple Music widget, and some other smaller changes.
Another noteworthy addition is a brand new iPhone ringtone.
Accessible from the ringtone section inside the Settings app, you can now choose an ‘Alt 1’ version of the default Reflection ringtone.
It’s possible the name is only a placeholder, and will get revised before iOS 26 ships this fall. Apple might also end up making this the new default.
In any case, if you want to get a sneak peek at the new ringtone, you can listen to it below.
