iOS 26.1 beta 1 debuted today, and offers big expansions of AirPods Live Translation and Apple Intelligence thanks to new supported languages. Here are the details.

So far, we haven't discovered any brand new Apple Intelligence features in iOS 26.1 beta 1 besides new languages, but we'll keep you posted on anything we find.
