Apple's 2026 operating systems will be unified and see a major visual upgrade called the Liquid Glass design language.

New touch-responsive Liquid Glass interface design "dynamically reacts" when you touch it, according to Apple.

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.
