Apple improves Liquid Glass in iOS 26 beta 4

Apple’s Liquid Glass (original iteration)
In the fourth beta of iOS 26, Apple refined the Liquid Glass design system-wide, adjusting the appearance of menus and buttons in apps.

In response to criticism about too little Liquid Glass in beta 3, Apple has upped the translucency in several areas.
Navigation bars in apps like Photos, Music, the App Store, Podcasts, are slightly clearer, allowing more of the background color to show through.
Apple cut down on the frosted glass look, but the changes are small enough that text remains readable, so it appears to be more of a balance between beta 2 and beta 3.
Control Center, the Lock Screen, and the Home Screen look largely the same, so most of the transparency changes are focused on app navigation bars and buttons. On the Lock Screen, though, the background darkens as you scroll through notifications.

MacDailyNews Take: Just give us the translucency slider we bet that you already have coded (if you don’t, you should) for the public release, Apple.
