In case of emergency, break glass

news.ycombinator.com Riccardo Mori 2025-11-24 02:45:32

A few observations after Apple’s WWDC25 keynote The title of my article obviously refers to the new UI Apple presented on 9 June, which they call Liquid Glass. I won’t beat around the bush: my very first impression is that we’re in UI emergency territory, but we won’t be able to break this particular glass. Only Apple can, and obviously they won’t because they’re very proud of it. I truly don’t know where to begin with my observations, as I’m still trying to rein in my many reactions to what I

iOS 26 proves that Android still has a software update problem

Joe Maring / Android Authority This week’s iOS 26 announcement sure was an odd one, wasn’t it?

Overall reactions to iOS 26 have been a mixed bag so far, and with an update this drastic, that’s to be expected.

As part of visionOS 26, Apple is overhauling the Personas feature for Apple Vision Pro users. Personas are the 3D avatars the system uses during FaceTime calls when the user is wearing the headset.
