Since then, third-party developers have been hard at work rolling out new Liquid Glass versions of their apps.<\/p>\n<p>Now, Apple has debuted a new page <a href=\"https:\/\/developer.apple.com\/design\/new-design-gallery\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">on the Apple Developer website<\/a> offering a visual gallery of how developers are adopting Liquid Glass in their apps.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cExplore a new visual gallery to find how teams of all sizes are taking advantage of the new design and Liquid Glass to create natural, responsive experiences across Apple platforms,\u201d Apple says.<\/p>\n<p>The webpage offers side-by-side comparisons of the iOS 18 and iOS 26 versions of popular apps.<\/p>\n<p>Among the apps highlighted are Crumbl, Tide Guide, GrowPal, Lumy, Sky Guide, Linearity, LTK, CardPointers, American Airlines, Lowe\u2019s, Photoroom, OmniFocus 4, CNN, Essayist, and Lucid Motors.<\/p>\n<p>For example, here\u2019s what Apple says about the new Linearity design:<\/p>\n<p>This vector-graphics design app \u2014 now unified across iPhone, iPad, and Mac \u2014 boasts a stronger iPad experience that makes complex designs easier to understand. On iPad, the new two-column Inspector lets people browse and edit side-by-side, adapting dynamically to window size. And on iPhone, touch targets, spacing, and gestures have been refined for smoother and more comfortable interaction \u2014 even with one hand.<\/p>\n<p>And Crumbl:<\/p>\n<p>The Crumbl app takes advantage of the new design and Liquid Glass to put the focus squarely on its sweet brand photography. The app\u2019s familiar pink branding also moves from the top toolbar into the content layer, letting content shine through the controls.<\/p>\n<p>Even if you aren\u2019t a developer, this page on <a href=\"https:\/\/developer.apple.com\/design\/new-design-gallery\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Apple\u2019s website is worth browsing<\/a>. It\u2019s interesting seeing the different approaches that these developers took when redesigning their apps for Liquid Glass, especially with the before and after comparisons.<\/p>\n<p>My favorite iPhone accessories:<\/p>\n<p>Follow Chance:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.threads.net\/@ChanceHMiller\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Threads<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/bsky.app\/profile\/chancemiller.me\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Bluesky<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/chancehmiller\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Instagram<\/a>, and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/mastodon.social\/@ChanceHMiller\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Mastodon<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t<a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/google.com\/preferences\/source?q=https:\/\/9to5mac.com\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"google-preferred-source-badge-dark\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/1762284008_569_google-preferred-source-badge-dark.png\" alt=\"Add 9to5Mac as a preferred source on Google\"\/><br \/>\n\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"google-preferred-source-badge-light\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/1760573832_833_google-preferred-source-badge-light.png\" alt=\"Add 9to5Mac as a preferred source on Google\"\/><br \/>\n\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"disclaimer-affiliate\">FTC: We use income earning auto affiliate links. <a href=\"https:\/\/9to5mac.com\/about\/#affiliate\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">More.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/4qP0DNG\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1024348\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/nomad-banner2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"205\"\/><\/a>\t\t\t\t<script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Apple launched iOS 26 with its new Liquid Glass design language in September.
