Apple's iOS 26 beta 6 boasts significantly faster app launch animations. While app content loading speed depends on recent usage, the time between tapping an icon and the app opening is noticeably reduced. This improvement, possibly linked to iOS 26's Liquid Glass redesign, is a key change in the latest beta. Whether this speed boost remains in future releases is uncertain, but current testing suggests it's a deliberate feature.
