You can shit on liquid glass all day and night but you can't deny it's just so much more refined than whatever iOS 18 tried to be.

@dimillian Agree 100% I think it’s a really nice step forward. Familiar but fresh. Apps that don’t use iOS 26 controls and Liquid Glass feel very dated.
@dimillian I personally like it. Folks shit on each new version of iOS and have done so for 15 years. I just ignore them.
@dimillian In a screen like the one you shared it really looks good, maybe even better and you did a great job adopting it for ice cubes🧊 But I also agree with that it has a lot of flaws like constantly wanting my attention when it really should let others shine
@dimillian
Refined? You've probably made a mistake in word "ruined"
@dimillian I do appreciate that the toolbar buttons actually look like buttons again, but I absolutely hate the way the interface elements alternate between light and dark modes depending on what’s underneath them. And in your screens, the information density on the bottom part of the view is much better on iOS 18.
@dimillian refined? I mean, it's littered with messy UI, uneven spacing, unreadable text and chaotic overlayed menus. Maybe you mean refined as in "when it works the UI looks classy"?
@dimillian Ice Cubes is the only app I use that actually shows that Liquid Glass can be nice.
@dimillian OK, thank you, I’ll shit on liquid glass all day and night.
