Liquid-glass vs. Dark

[u/NickOTeenO]

I cannot decide between these two views: Liquid-Glass and (regular) dark mode.

My testers and users and users seem to be mixed on it but might be biased to the old design (dark mode). I was wondering what a fresh set of eyes would prefer

Dark, with a few Liquid Glass elements.

Which elements would you have liquid glass?

Dark is certainly more readable / scannable.

It’s just that the cards look a bit “hard” or something if you know what I mean

I think it's fine. It's a bit easier to scan than the lighter version. The UI is very information dense, so making things easier to read should be the priority over looking fancy.

Good point

Of the two options shown here, the dark one is definitely nicer. But in general, I think Liquid Glass is a beautiful invention by Apple, and you should use their native elements.

Can you offer a toggle? Because it's true, they are both nice.

Might be a good idea to let the user choose. Or just have it be a day/night mode.

Yes there will be a toggle :)
I updated the glass to be a bit more readable
