Basic Apple Guy @basicappleguy.com · Jun 16 Liquid Glass is a very different material in OS 27, offering much deeper icon customization, including control over specular highlights, refraction, and more. It makes the OS 26 icons look blurry and plasticky in comparison.

I'm really beginning to think OS26 was just a really long open beta.
wow that is a crazy level of visual customization for an apple product
So looking forward to this!
Unfortunately all the artistic fun of icons were drained from everything with everyone imitating Apple. Flat, bland, stale and corporate sums up UI and icons since 2012-2013.
Can’t wait for this. All my app icons looking blurry and “bubbly?” has never stopped being annoying. 27 is such an improvement.
How does all this fancy wizardry affect battery life?
OS 26 Icons always looked blurry and plasticky. People with a good eye were already criticizing that long before the new icons appeared
The OSes just look sharper and more legible in general. I’m glad Apple is extending that mentality to the icons as well!
