• Know exactly how to do it

Apple has released iOS 26.1 update. The company introduced the iOS 26 update a few months back. Now, it’s giving a major update. This update is available for iPhone 11 series and all subsequent iPhone models. Apple’s latest iOS 26.1 update gives users the option to turn off the liquid glass effect. In the new update, users will get a Liquid Glass setting, where they will be given a toggle button to turn it off. The high transparency of the liquid glass design resulted in poor readability, which was a problem for many users. Here, we will explain how to turn off the liquid glass effect.

How to turn off liquid glass effect?

To turn off the liquid glass effect, you need to update your iPhone first. To do this, you need to install the latest iOS 26.1. Earlier, the company had released iOS 26.0.1. After the update is installed, go to your iPhone’s Settings menu. Here, in the Display and Brightness section, you’ll find the Liquid Glass option. You will find two options: clear and tinted.

If you want a liquid glass effect, select the Clear option. If you don’t want this effect, select the tinted option. Selecting the tinted option reduces the transparency of the liquid glass effect. In addition, the glossy effect is not visible. It also improves readability, regardless of your wallpaper.

Options issued after feedback

By Apple This change may seem minor, but in some ways, this update is significant. Apple is very strict in its design approach. This time, the company seems to be taking a step back based on user feedback. The company has provided an option to disable Liquid Glass, a key feature of the new iOS. It also shows how important user feedback is to Apple.

New option focus

This update focuses primarily on the Liquid Glass setting, which adds two viewing styles: Clear and Tinted. The Clear option maintains the transparent look found in iOS 26, while the Tinted option adds a light frosted layer, making the background slightly less transparent. This means text and icons appear clearer and easier to read.

Fitness apps and FaceTime calls will be improved

This update will also be useful for fitness enthusiasts. Workouts can now be manually logged in the fitness app, allowing users to keep more accurate records of their workouts. Moreover, the audio quality of FaceTime calls is improved even on poor network connections. If you want to download the iOS 26.1 update on your iPhone, you can install it by going to Settings > General > Software Update.
