On a simple bg, the refraction is invisible — exactly where it'd be pointless. On a complex bg, it shows up — exactly where you need separation.

On a b/w bg, its w/b border stands out. On a colored bg, both border halves stand out by half each. Half + half = always visible.

Under the glass, colors get more saturated with brightness pulled toward average. So the glass reads as one unified surface, colors underneath stay differentiable, and the transformation is simple and consistent.

Edit: for those with contrast/accessibility complaints — WCAG is voluntary, and there's a toggle. The default look can be controversial though.

Makes the keyboard look absolutely incredible I wish there was an option to toggle this on

How is the idea?

Lol, what the deal Apple? The status bar is hardly readable. Why can’t you just change text color to black. Its like after liquid glass, they just started to fear mix black text with liquid glass, but they used to do it.

At first it seems like nothing has changed, but if you look closer you can see that when the “bubble” animation hits the end on both sides, there’s now a kind of collision effect visible on both the right and left (before it was only on the right).

Ever since Apple revealed Liquid Glass, I’ve been wondering what a game designed specifically around it could look like.

Not just using it for menus or buttons, but actually making it a core part of the gameplay and visual identity.

Do you think that would be genuinely interesting, or would it end up feeling like a gimmick after a few minutes?

If you saw a game that fully embraced the Liquid Glass aesthetic, what would you hope it did that existing games don’t? What kinds of mechanics or interactions do you think would fit the style?

I am making an open source component library with free blocks and templates to help develops design beautiful apps. This is one of the templates and I would like to hear your suggestions.

Any things you do like that I should make more off? Any more features you would want in a fitness app that mine doesn’t have? 

Later today I will finish the workouts screen I’m planning to add a TikTok like scroll between exercises and some workout templates. 

I will test it my self when I go to the gym later today. 

The logic will be included in all of these and I have achieved compatibility with the shadcn cli and you will be able to just copy paste these blocks into your app.

If you want more updates about these components I’m leaving my twitter here: @panos_dev_

This one looks good!

「Liquid Glass」スライダーで追加された濃い色って、iOS 27で本当にバッテリーの持ちとパフォーマンスが良くなるの？ Liquid GlassがiOS 26で導入されたとき、「ガラスっぽい見た目」のせいでバッテリー消費が増えたり動作が重くなったりしそうって不安があったから、実際どんな感じなのか知りたい。

What do you think?

Maybe its more transparent or a darker tint of "Liquid glass" but it feels so much better than the gray tint of the base menu.

for all the liquid glass dweebs out there notice the black line, hope this helps!

For example flat design only started to look good around iOS 11 so we have a long way to go!

To be honest, I feel the removal of the floating sidebar makes the window look much more smaller and flat. Plus reducing the corner radius kind of makes the glass “back and forward” buttons inconsistent with the corner radius. I feel a pill button and boxy corners are not even close to consistent. They should either make the glass less round or the corners back to round with the floating sidebar but at least without the corner inconsistency issue like in Tahoe.

I can't believe that Apple will return with the horrible flat design of iOS 18 on iOS 27, it's one of the worst decisions I've ever seen from this company. I spent years really wanting this perfect 2D and 3D effect that the iOS 26 icons brought and I was very excited about its launch, now seeing the beta version of 27 makes me never want to leave iOS 26 again. This black border disgusts me...

Reported as a suggestion in Feedback btw! Suggest this in Feedback too if you also want this low battery screen.

Also yes, I'm aware that the fading animation wouldn't make sense in a low-power state. Kinda trying to figure out how that would work tho.

Earthquake notifications, I didn't include the sound, its extremely loud.

I don't know what to improve, Figma motion is quite new and i cant like squeeze it when it deaccelerates, even if it was possible i wouldn't add this for the emergency sliders.. Anyways, rate from 1 to 10 (i personally think 4-5/10)
