Apple introduces Liquid Glass to make iOS and iPadOS more expressive
Apple’s WWDC is 关键字2underwayand one of Cupertino’s first big announcements is Liquid Glass, which is what Apple is calling its new design language. Yes, it’s the one that has been rumored for monthsand is now official.
Apple describes Liquid Glass as a material that sits above the user interface (UI) on your phone. The material moves based on how you interact with it. For example, if you grab a Liquid Glass window and pull, it’ll jiggle and move with your finger. Liquid Glass UI elements also refract light like real glass and is heavily influenced by whatever is underneath it on the screen.

Liquid Glass is not a massive departure from what was already there, but that’s not the big news. This new design language will be what Apple uses moving forward on all of its major operating systems, including macOS, iOS, iPadOS, and more. It was inspired by visionOS, and it’ll be what you see on everything made by Apple starting later this year.
On top of looking pretty, Apple says that it’s also functional. Liquid Glass UI elements will be able to expand and contract with nice-looking animations to adapt to what the app needs it to do. It also works with light and dark modes along with Apple’s new clear mode, which makes all of your icons look like glass.

With Liquid Glass, Apple aims to make all of its operating systems look more lively. During the WWDC presentation, Apple showed off how responsive the new UI would be to everything from user touch to the background on the screen.

Liquid Glass is the first major overhaul to iOS’s visual design language since its skeuomorphic design was introduced with iOS 7 in 2013.
