My work mac got upgraded to Tahoe and I must say — it overall sucks. Inconsistent borders (and the new borders are way too large, it’s idiotic — stay with how it was) and the liquid glass is visual clutter that decreases legibility in general. I tried increase contrast but the overall effect is less than desired. The new tiling is okay, but I largely got by with rectangle anyways so I’m really not seeing much there either.

I’m largely fine with it on Mac.

But on iOS I despise the 100% transparent top bar. Text keeps hiding behind the icons, and the text for battery percent is fucking transparent so if there’s something behind it there’s almost no contrast. It definitely needs some work.

Same on my M4 work mac. Tahoe has annoying graphical glitches in several liquid glass modals and the damn calendar app wont scroll through my weekly meeting schedule properly anymore. The UI overall feels half baked and far less customisable than the marketing otherwise suggests.

Also, if anyone knows how to shutoff that god awful ‘bounce’ animation on every damn tooltip that fucks with my eyes while I’m trying to write code, it would be greatly appreciated.

I just updated my phone and now emails take a minute to load. Like not joking at least a full 60 seconds after freshly opening the app.

It’s terrible on iOS, so I will not be doing this on my mac.

We gladly welcome informed whining at !saltycaramelapple@sh.itjust.works !

Subbed. I’m so disgusted with iOS 26. It’s by far the worst update Apple has ever released. 🙏

I didn’t want to arrive at this conclusion. I wanted to stay positive. I am forced to agree with you. It’s a constant source of frustration.

If you don’t have this year’s phones, what exactly does this update do?

The link provided has release notes.

Yes; and they cover issues with the iPhone 17 and iPhone Air, and something about cellular networks that hasn’t affected me.

They don’t, however, answer my question.

They cover plenty of issues with iOS 26, which affects all iPhones going back to the iPhone 12 models, Apple TV devices, apple watch devices, homepod devices, macbooks, etc
