Here's how to make the Liquid Glass design in iOS 26 more legible. And don't forget, iOS 26 is still in beta. That means the update might be buggy for you, and your device's battery life may be affected, so it's best to keep those troubles off your primary device. If you want to try the beta out, I recommend downloading it on a secondary device.

You'll need iOS 26 Beta installed on your iPhone to access Liquid Glass icons. Since the feature is currently only available in the public beta, you'll need to download that version first.

With the introduction of OS version 26, Apple streamlined the user interface across iOS, iPadOS, macOS, watchOS, tvOS, and visionOS. Liquid Glass is now the company’s universal design language, borrowing cues from the Vision Pro’s operating system and preparing for a future dominated by mixed-reality gadgets.
