The real reason adoption is slow is that the update is opt-in. Normal people have their phone set up to automatically update, and it works fine as-is.

The only reason I have iOS 26 is because I bothered to go in the Software Update page and saw it was released.

To be honest though, *OS 26 is the worst update yet overall, lots of crashes and the UI changes are not great. If there was an option to go back to the old UI I would use it…
