Is there a way to completely disable the liquid glass functionality on iOS 26? I'm not going to get into a lengthy diatribe over why it's awful, I just want it gone.
iPhone 13 Pro Max, iOS 18
There's no off switch but however what I did is I went to settings-accessability-display & text size and reduced transparency and if that still isn't okay for you I would recommend scrolling down (same settings) and reducing white points atleast by 50% or however you like. It makes the icons less "shiny" in a way
The transparency and motion recommendations CRIPPLE OTHER THINGS. These are not appropriate responses. The ONLY response I want to see is from Apple with a button to turn this garbage off.
How do you turn it off?

Downgrading has never been supported.
You can't disable your operating system, the phone wouldn't work. And downgrading the iOS isnt supported, you will have to live with it.
Im going in to a Genius bar on Sunday for a battery replacement and will ask them to roll it back to 24 or 25.
I mainly want to disable the shimmer effect on the outline of the app icons. It’s distracting and IMO really ugly.
So, have you done anything yet to minimize the effect?
If yes, what have you tried?
I think it will grow on me, but i wish they had a feature for turn on and off
Thank you so much. Your solution is very helpful. Makes the new OS much more tolerable when using dark mode settings.
I have it on my Mac and my iPhone now, I thought I hated it on my Mac. Even worse on my iPhone. I understand it is personal preference but can not stand this.
I tried those ways to minimize it and it didn’t help.
Why did someone think this was a good idea? Extremely distracting!
Unfortunately, it’s not about liking or disliking; it’s an accessibility issue.
Lol “idle threat”? And if you don’t care, why’d you reply?
