Apple attempted to change the Liquid Glass design
Apple has reduced the transparency of navigation panels, buttons, and tabs, which previously allowed users to clearly see the content beneath them. The new Liquid Glass design language from Apple has become slightly matte. This concerns the third beta version of iOS 26 for developers. Apple has already softened the glassiness of Liquid Glass, as noted by https://xrust.ru/. This change came in response to user complaints, claiming it was too transparent and made viewing certain options, such as icons within the Control Center, difficult. The latest beta version makes Liquid Glass elements even more solid, likely as a way to improve readability. Analysts wrote that iOS 26 beta 3 completely tones down Liquid Glass. Now everything looks much cheaper, giving the impression that Apple is stepping back from its original vision. However, there are those with a more radical opinion who suggest Apple should “stop ruining” Liquid Glass.
Some beta users have noticed that the level of transparency can vary depending on the app they are using. Developers, of course, have read all the opinions and have stated that this is still just a beta version for developers. Therefore, it is quite likely that Apple will continue to make changes before releasing iOS 26 to the general public in September.
