Apple Spotlights Third-party Apps Adopting Liquid Glass in iOS 26 and More

Apple launched iOS 26 with its new Liquid Glass design language in September. Since then, third-party developers have been hard at work rolling out new Liquid Glass versions of their apps.

Now, Apple has debuted a new page on the Apple Developer website offering a visual gallery of how developers are adopting Liquid Glass in their apps.

“Explore a new visual gallery to find how teams of all sizes are taking advantage of the new design and Liquid Glass to create natural, responsive experiences across Apple platforms,” Apple says.

The webpage offers side-by-side comparisons of the iOS 18 and iOS 26 versions of popular apps.

Among the apps highlighted are Crumbl, Tide Guide, GrowPal, Lumy, Sky Guide, Linearity, LTK, CardPointers, American Airlines, Lowe’s, Photoroom, OmniFocus 4, CNN, Essayist, and Lucid Motors.

For example, here’s what Apple says about the new Linearity design:

This vector-graphics design app — now unified across iPhone, iPad, and Mac — boasts a stronger iPad experience that makes complex designs easier to understand. On iPad, the new two-column Inspector lets people browse and edit side-by-side, adapting dynamically to window size. And on iPhone, touch targets, spacing, and gestures have been refined for smoother and more comfortable interaction — even with one hand.

And Crumbl:

The Crumbl app takes advantage of the new design and Liquid Glass to put the focus squarely on its sweet brand photography. The app’s familiar pink branding also moves from the top toolbar into the content layer, letting content shine through the controls.

Even if you aren’t a developer, this page on Apple’s website is worth browsing. It’s interesting seeing the different approaches that these developers took when redesigning their apps for Liquid Glass, especially with the before and after comparisons.
