It got better in Beta 2!
I frankly can’t understand how Apple of all companies can design such GUI failure. It looks horrendous and this isn’t the only time it’s horrendous with all this transparency.
Alan Dye has no usability skills.
I know it is only the first development beta, but Apple should not have allowed this to happen at all.
While I want to move away from boring flat designs, usability should not be sacrificed with Liquid gl-ass.
Mein Freund, maybe just follow the slogan emblazoned across your wallpaper?
Actually! Das ist das Albumcover!
I’m also using the iOS 26 beta, when you swipe down from an app that’s light (e.g. a website) and have a dark lockscreen background then the notifications backgrounds can become unreadable since the lock screen background only appears when you finish the swipe down.
Sheeesh I hate that
Occasionally, the notifications switch to have a more contrasty background to make it easier to read. But not always. Which is incredibly annoying!
Settings --> Accessibility --> Display & Text Size --> Reduce Transparency
Like an advent calendar
This is worse than the iOS 7 betas.
This seriously looks bad… Hope they will come back from this before 26 releases.
