Is there a way to completely disable the liquid glass functionality on iOS 26? I'm not going to get into a lengthy diatribe over why it's awful, I just want it gone.
iPhone 13 Pro Max, iOS 18
There's no off switch but however what I did is I went to settings-accessability-display & text size and reduced transparency and if that still isn't okay for you I would recommend scrolling down (same settings) and reducing white points atleast by 50% or however you like. It makes the icons less "shiny" in a way
Yes please help apple. This new figure is horrible
Just wanted to say those are some really cool icons
Yes most of them are from an old theme called buuf by mattahan.And some I modified or made myself.

It was installed last night. It is wretched and will likely be what finally drives me off of iPhone.

Thanks for sharing.
Yeah but in this case the Liquid Glass effect truly is ugly. Programmers with too much time on their hands, doing something that doesn’t increase functionality at all.

Well, the analogy fails because I can always go to a different dealer and buy a different car

And you can go buy a different kind of phone, too.
horrible idea for UI. Please listen to your users and give us an option to disable this and revert back. I’m sure your feedback loop is blowing up on this.
Except it does kind of diminish those getting headaches and nauseated by these changes which seem pretty ugly and lame (illness inducement aside).
This issue needs to be fixed, asap. All this advice about changing all these settings just to get it to look halfway decent again is not a solution.
You have to fix this and let us take off Liquid Glass. I no longer can see my phone without glasses.
User to user site. Apple is not here, they will not see your post or reply.
If you want to provide feedback to Apple, you can do so here:
