Apple has reduced the transparency of its Liquid Glass design in the iOS 26 beta 3 update, but that's probably for the better.

Apple apparently wasn’t satisfied with the Liquid Glass look in beta 2. iOS 26 beta 3 introduces another change, and now the glass isn’t that liquid anymore. The transparency has been reduced even further, giving the overall effect of frosted glass.

Apple's streaming music app's navigation bar now has a more solid white background. Notifications are also slightly translucent because of the increased contrast caused by the darker background behind the text.
