Developer Showcases iOS 26’s Liquid Glass Effect on Applications


Apple showcased iOS 26 during the WWDC 2025 keynote. This forthcoming software upgrade unveils Apple’s new Liquid Glass design language. While it has sparked considerable discussion online, this marks the most substantial overhaul to the company’s mobile UI since iOS 7.

Not only is Apple aiming to create a more unified interface across iPhone, iPad, and Mac, but the firm is also broadening this to include the Apple TV, Apple Watch, and Apple Vision Pro. Apple’s “gorgeous, enjoyable, and immediately recognizable” new Liquid Glass design, as the company boasts, is poised to transform the way we engage with its products permanently.

With the public beta of iOS 26 now available, a larger number of users can experience the company’s new outlook on the future. However, the design remains constrained to its own native apps and widgets. While we must wait several more months for the official release of iOS 26, Gentler Streak has been teasing the appearance of the app once this software update is launched. Now, the developer has provided an exclusive preview of its work with BGR.
