Let's ignore those readability concerns for a second. Look... at these satisfying Liquid Glass animations & visual effects on iOS 26.show more

Let's change a refreshing wallpaper to re-examine the Liquid... Glass of iOS 26.show more

iOS 26.4 beta 4 adds a “Reduce Bright Effects”... toggle to minimize highlighting and flashing when interacting with Liquid Glass elements. You can find it in Settings > Accessibility > Display & Text Size.show more

People tend to push back on visual change. With... Liquid Glass, it’s important to separate knee-jerk reactions from real critique. Contrast, legibility, noise—these are valid, fixable issues. But watch “Meet Liquid Glass” from WWDC. There’s thoughtful, joyful vision underneath. I’m excited for a more dynamic, tactile future of UI. #WWDC25show more

Thank you Apple for doing "Liquid Glass" At least... 3rd party apps on Android are starting to look good 🥰🎀show more

designers love to hate on raw, unfinished things. redesigning... the whole ios/watchos/macos/... ui after a decade is a brutal challenge for any design team! almost impossible to satisfy the expectation. most haters around here have never designed in a large organization like apple and are not aware of challenges such as politcs, opiniated stakeholder, impossible deadlines, the list goes on... i empathise with the ui designers in apple. yes! os26 and liquid glass feels rough at the moment! so did the ios7 at launch. it evolved. this will too. i appreciate the brave direction apple has taken with this liquid glass ui. yes it comes with challenges including readability, compatibility and more... let's stop b*tching about it and contribute to solutionise these challenges.show more

It's wild how these GPU-accelerated, ultra-performant effects have been... available on native macOS/iOS for two decades. Works on top of live UI, works on top of video and complex view hierarchies, ripple effects, glass refraction, pixelation, colors, stacking... the list goes onshow more

This is amazing. iOS 26 renders Liquid Glass UI... in HDR! Taps on bottom nav bars trigger specular highlights, peaking at around 350 nits. Screenshots and recordings can capture the additional luminance data in PQ EOTF with HDR10show more

✈️ FocusFlight 1.4 is cleared for takeoff. Here’s what’s... new in this update: 🌀 New White Noise — even more immersive, even more calming 📱 Fully Ready for iOS & iPadOS 26 — ready for Liquid Glass, stay tuned for our upcoming TestFlight betas! 🌕 Something big is coming!show more

On a mission to make buttons that stand out.... - For this one, I played around with liquid glass mixed with a 3D effect on hover, how's it look?show more

Came up with a real simple way to make... these flasks look like they have liquid! 💦 1. Model glass & invert the normals 2. Model the liquid 3. Rig the liquid with a bone facing up 4. in engine apply "jiggle physics" with negative gravity #gamedev #unity #blender #animation #b3dshow more

The visual effects on OPPO's new ColorOS 16 is... just too good. For example: Look at that lock screen clock transition from 19 59 to 20 00.show more

A memory like this: I’ve been exploring Liquid Glass... for at least one year now, recreating many versions exactly nine all built with totally different techniques. I came to a realization. iOS 26, at least for me, missed part of the purpose. Liquid Glass is often used as decoration, while refraction could become the core of the user experience. Not an embellishment, but interaction itself. By turning a glass panel, refraction reveals something else: another app, another image, another portal. That’s when it clicked. You look through one image, turn slightly, and suddenly you’re somewhere else. Same moment, different feeling. I really hope Apple takes this approach to the next level.

I think Apple’s design direction for the iPhone is... moving away from what I would consider as “simplicity” to “playfulness” lately. I personally don’t think most of these are bad in terms of how they look (they are actually beautiful), but I feel like they just look a little off next to other iOS visual elements. For example: • Action button settings • Dynamic Island animations • Much more bouncy Control Centre animations • Redesigned iMessage attachment/“+”menushow more

Huge tragedy fire. Praying for all those affected. Take... a second to look at the car being pushed 😭show more

1. No, we can't recreate a universally perfect liquid... glass in Figma that will adapt to any UI on the background. 2. Yes, we can create a slightly fake version. The secret is to use 1 additional nested layer that will have 2 effects — blurring the background and deforming it. All additional lighting effects should be used on the main container where this background layer sits. These are my best numbers for it so far.show more

Swapped our custom tab bar for Apple's real iOS... 26 Liquid Glass, fully native, not a React Native re-creation… Powered by Expo Router's native tabs, this renders through UIKit itself, so it gets the actual system blur, materials, and scroll behavior straight from the OS… Scroll down and watch the bar shrink into just the active icon…show more
