Apple Unveils Its New Design Coming With iOS 26: Liquid Glass

The last major iOS design update arrived with iOS 7 all the way back in 2013. Now, 12 years later, the tech giant has pulled back the curtain on iOS 26 and Liquid Glass, a sleek design update that will arrive for all of its devices, refreshing the way iOS users view iPhone, iPad, tvOS, watchOS, and more for the foreseeable future.

New Calling Layout Options With iOS 26

Liquid Glass is changing everything we know about iPhone, and that can be seen in how the high-tech phone’s calling features work. Changes include the freedom to change the layout of your phone app to prioritize how you live your life, a pre-screen feature that has callers leave a message before a call goes through, and the ability to detect hold music.

iPhone Messages Get Updates With Liquid Glass

The phone app isn’t the only social application getting a facelift with iOS 26. When the update eventually launches, users can expect to take advantage of new superficial features like backgrounds for specific conversations and added functionality that will help filter out spam messages. Group messages are getting a few changes, too, including the long-awaited addition of a text bubble indicator that alerts you when a member of your group is in the middle of typing up a message.
