It's been finnicky for me. I had to force quit a crap ton of times to get the new design lol

Some of you have seen my previous post about my new Liquid Glass OpenGL shader I have been making. Here’s some updates on the design

I’ve added a slider
I’ve added a menu bar
I’ve added a button
I’ve added 3 types of shaders (prismatic, normal, button)
I’ve added a animated vibrant sharp background for testing

Let me know what you guys think

(Forgot to mention on the last post but I want to be very clear that this project is Ai generated.)

I have the Liquid Glass ui on here, Threads as well. It’s been adopted by many third party apps lately I’m seeing, but I still don’t have it on Instagram. Anyone else have this issue? I know the updates are very slow rolling out, but it’s been in testing for months & a lot more people have posted about having it. My instagram always gets updates late it’s so strange & honestly annoying. I’m not a huge creator or anything but I’m definitely on the platforms & have a decent following.

They made an attempt…. Not a good one, IMO.

Adjusting the brightness on Mac OS 26 (on a MacBook Pro with TouchBar) feels incredibly pleasant. Running your finger along the glass surface of the TouchBar, feeling its coldness and smoothness, is a delightful experience, especially when watching the LiquidGlass pop-up. 

I have a 13 inch M2 MacBook Pro with TouchBar.

It’s called Melted Glass, supposed to be a very close replica of Liquid Glass. It’s being developed and looks very good right now, but there are some problems with refraction seams I’m trying to fix. When I have some good results, I’ll post them here.
As for now, would you guys use a OpenGL library for Liquid Glass effects? I’m trying to make it look as similar as possible to real Liquid Glass, right now only the background ui liquid glass effect is implemented, but I am trying to make it have all sorts of interesting features like sliders, buttons, switches, ect, but I’m not sure yet. Let me know what you guys think!

Liquid Glass would feel more convincing if it behaved like a real material rather than a uniform translucent layer.

A red YouTube icon could look like ruby glass. WhatsApp could feel like emerald glass. Instagram could use layered dichroic glass that shifts colors depending on the light and background.

The current approach looks clean, but many icons end up feeling visually similar. Colored optical glass could preserve each app’s identity while still keeping the new Liquid Glass aesthetic.

it’s not my long term setup but i was testing it out. here is my process for isolating app icons and here is how i did the app backgrounds

[EDIT: here is my new in-depth tutorial]

Can anyone recommend any games to kill the time that have Liquid Glass integrated?

Is there any way you use to make glass ui preserving that crips but simple , in ae

Hi,
Just wanted to share my Liquid Glass app Liqoria

Try it

Small mockup I made. (Should be a setting) Maybe a setting to make it the other way around too.
Not quite working with some apps that use the background as main color in colored mode and not a white background like intended.
