Back in 2024, we described how the then-new iOS 18 enabled you to tint your homescreen icons, allowing you to tweak the look of your iPhone's display. Now, with Apple's introduction of its Liquid Glass design for iOS 26, you can make your icons completely clear (assuming you're a fan of the new invisible look).
The process of customizing your icons works exactly the same as it did for the...

Wristy business.
I'm just getting acquainted with Gemini on the Pixel Watch I'm wearing when it tells me that there's a kind of pastry called "nun's farts." This relationship is off to a good start.
"Nun's farts" was a totally appropriate response, by the way. I'd asked it for a list of pastries with silly names, prompted by a question from my 3-year-old. But my first reaction - right after...
Apple has had two months to refine Liquid Glass since introducing the design language at WWDC. It's dialed the effect back, then amped it back up. It's addressed some of the biggest complaints - the Control Center, for one - and left us to live with some of the others. So after all the tweaks, how is everyone feeling about it?
