Episode notes
Liquid Glass: More Than Skin
- Apple's new 'Liquid Glass' design is more than just a visual skin; it fundamentally changes how the system operates and feels fluid.
- This deep redesign enables improved usability, like the new iPadOS windowing system, by enhancing visual cues and interaction.
iPadOS Windowing Evolves
- The new iPadOS windowing system replaces traditional split view and slide over with a more flexible multi-window setup.
- It works on older iPads (back to A12Z), with the number of windows limited by RAM, signaling a broader availability than previously expected.
Improve Legibility with Steady Opacity
- To address legibility complaints in the Liquid Glass UI, Apple could make windows slowly become more opaque when steady.
- This approach keeps the translucent effect while improving readability during static use.
