The biggest new version of Apple is not a product or even a feature, but what the company calls: liquid glass.
This is not a traditional material and does not actually exist physically. Instead, the idea is behind the software designed for all of its products, and how everything from Apple Watch’s small screen to the big screen of a TV actually looks.
In the simplest, liquid glass is a new look for software. Its main features are that it is more transparent and shiny than the appearance.
But changes are made across the system. They change how controlled the controls on its devices as well as the program symbols, and so they appear in the use of Apple products.
They are part of the new operating system updates revealed at the Apple World Development Conference on Monday. They are released to the public later this year and come to iOS, iPados, MacOS and TVOS iPhone.
The new look at The Vision Pro, the Apple headset, which was first displayed two years ago, is inspired. When launching, the device had a transparent glass, meaning that Windows can be seen through the transparent background of one of the things that were confronted.
But it goes beyond the new software. The glass itself can change as a result of the content around it as well as motion, so Apple claims “behaves like glass in the real world.”
The first place where redesign is likely to be turned on is the new lock screen that uses the glass for time on the screen and other parts of the screen. But Apple has also redesigned its apps to use the new look.
Third -party developers will also be able to use it. Apple said it is making the technology available so that they can easily adopt a new design and refresh their apps with a new look.
As the new “material” introduced, Apple also made it easier to customize the software. This involves changing the color of the folders in MacOS, for example, as well as new colors for the screen and a transparent menu bar.
Liquid glass may also be a reference to Apple devices that are going to come, and Apple explicitly said that the new design of the scene is set for a new generation of products. It is not clear exactly what this means, but it may show that Apple, for example, is to prepare devices that are heavily relied on the glass hardware they are made.
