i am really unsure on the ios26 it has completely and utterly drained my battery 3x worse than it was before
In the first 48 hours or so after a major update, your phone is doing a lot of background indexing and housekeeping. The battery will drain more quickly and it will get warmer. This is normal. It should settle down soon.
i hate the design of it and i hate that my keyboard has changed
You should let Apple know your thoughts here:
i want it to go back to the ios18 but my iphone is not fully set up properly is there any other way to fix this problem because i need another way to fix it asap please and thankyou. yours sincerely
It is not possible to go back to iOS 18. I don't know what you mean when you say, "my iPhone is not fully set up properly."

Deleted iOS 26 back to iOS 18
Read through this post, there is no reason to write the answer again.
At this point, there's no point in answering at all. They can just wait and install the final release on Monday.
Very true.
Can you please direct me to where the response is?
Thank you
