Apple's new user interface, Liquid Glass, is being criticized ahead of its official release, particularly for readability issues like hard-to-read notifications and elements in light gray fonts. The beta demonstrated at the Worldwide Developer Conference is considered unfinished, raising concerns about legibility, especially for low-vision users. Although it promises a unifying design across Apple devices and is inspired by the Vision Pro VR headset, many see the initial design as flawed, with users hoping for improvements before the final launch of iOS 26 later this fall.
Some users and designers are already panning Apple's new user interface dubbed Liquid Glass, even though it's a bit early.
There are parts of the interface where various elements are simply too hard to read - and not only for low-vision users (or the middle-aged).
The dramatic refresh to the iPhone's look-and-feel was announced at this year's Worldwide Developer Conference and described by Apple as its "broadest design update ever."
Liquid Glass... would span across Apple's platforms, unifying the experience of using Apple devices.
