Liquid Glass Is Back In IOS 26 Beta 4

Apple’s iOS 26 beta 4 brings back a familiar visual element: the Liquid Glass design.

This update increases translucency in key UI components like the navigation bars across system apps including the App Store and Photos.

The translucent effect gives the interface a more layered, glass-like appearance, creating depth while maintaining readability.

The return of this design shift signals Apple’s continued focus on blending aesthetic elegance with functional clarity in its mobile UI.

Developers and beta users have already noticed the subtle yet polished enhancement, marking a nostalgic return for longtime iOS fans and a refinement for the current generation of Apple devices.
