The World Wide Developers Conference (WBC) in 2025, Apple introduced the first major design of its platforms after the iOS7 in 2013. Liquid glass dubbed, new design brings a propaganda material for language elements that behave like glasses in real time. Along with this, the Capartino -based tech -based tech is re -designing iOS 26, iPados 26, Macos Tahao 26, Wachos 26, and TVOS 26. This new user interface not only affects system elements and people on the home screen, but also affects the company’s first party apps.
What is the language of the liquid glass design?
In a blog post, Tech Dev Dev described the new design language in detail and said it was influenced by “depth and dimension of vision”, and it uses new graphics technologies. The main focus of the design is the material -like material, which refuses to color and deny the content that appears in the background.
Apple said the effect was created by the material for background forms and colors in real time and dynamically reacting to movement. It is said that the material, which is molded between the light and the dark environment, is said to have been developed after mutual cooperation between the company’s design and engineering teams.
The company has used liquid glass materials in large elements such as tab bars and sidebers, along with small elements like buttons, switches, slider, text, and media controls. It also appears on lock screen, home screen, notifications, control centers, and more.
The re -design also brings other changes to the user’s interface. Apple has re -confirmed the tool bars, tab bars, sidewalks and app windows with round corners, which digest the previous rectangles. These app controls are also made of liquid glass, and they are positioned above apps. When the user needs more options, these controls also increase.
In addition, the latest iPados and Macos are made of liquid glasses, and as the user scrolls up or down, the rods spread and reflect the material behind them. At the same time, the material around the bar is torn around the edge of the element. New design elements are available on numerous first -party apps, including camera, photo, safari, facetime, Apple Music, Apple News, and Apple Podcast.
Customization has also been increased with the new design language. At Macos Tahao 26, users can customize desktops and dock with widgets and app icons, including new light and dark indicators. In addition, in all platforms, apps are also getting a new, clear look. To complete the appearance, a new transparent menu bar is also being included on the Mac with this upcoming update.
