Three Days Until iOS 26 Launch: What Are You Most Looking Forward To?

iOS 26 is coming in just three days, and it brings a new Liquid Glass design with translucent UI elements, rounded menu bars, simplified navigation, pop out menus, and more.

Liquid Glass has been contentious during the beta testing period. Some people don't feel like there's enough translucency, and others think Apple has gone too far, impacting readability. Where do you fall on the spectrum? Let us know in the comments below.

Getting off of iOS 12, finally upgrading from an iPhone 5s. Just don't care much about my phone but excited to see all new features I've missed out on over the decade + since this phone came out.
