(OK wow it autocapitalizes it lol).
I mean is it slow? Yes, currently. Does it have many bugs and glitches? Yes, currently. But does it look fresh? It does thats why Xiaomi etc are already copying it.
Why should the biggest company have to build in public?
Because it's how it performs in a mimetic environment not just with beta testers.
Instead this author just assumes they ship the initial version completely bug free.
I see so many people complaining, but I'm sure they will improve the reduce transparency mode quite a bit, maybe make the glass look blurry without the underlying reflections and in a couple years nobody is gonna want the old thing back, just like how all IOS7 complaints slowly faded.
- leakycap 1y agoDo you think they will change the behavior of buttons morphing as you scroll an app's content? It seems by design liquid glass is moving all over the place while I'm using it ... meaning I have to wait for the buttons to morph into whatever they want to morph into before I can tap one, or I end up tapping where the button I want just was and has now disappeared into a (...) menu. iOS 26 has made me consider giving up the privacy benefits on Apple's ecosystem just so I can have a usable device. For now I'm on 18.7 & hope they build in public quickly. Otherwise, I'll be gleefully typing on a physical qwerty-keyboard Android device when iOS 18 becomes a friction to use.
