>Apple killed Flatshit and brought back Frutiger Aero
Does this mean every company will follow suit now like what happened with iOS7?

It's so ugly, bros.

I hope not. It looks like fucking ass.
Can we have a UI trend that isn't extreme flatshit or extreme skeuomorphism?

frutiger?

Camera and Mail are the only ones that look decent. What the hell are they doing?

colour is important this looks trash

>>105587669 (OP)
Probably. Its ironic how Apple were the last ones to adopt the flatshit last time. Now they're ahead of the curve

the dark logos are one of the ugliest things I've ever seen on a device. gimp logo looks better.

>>105587669 (OP)
Sure thing, Arjun.

>>105587669 (OP)
> every company follow suit
itoddlers really are this mentally deranged and fucking stupid. even microsoft is dunking on you fucking failures for ripping off windows. itoddlers just btfo themselves so easily these days it's just truly unreal to witness.

>>105587669 (OP)
This is obviously because Apple is positioning itself to put its VR fuck up in the past and move on to AR. Glass UI is prefect for AR.

>>105587669 (OP)
yes, but even better, so will gnome and kde, and if you think apple's version looks bad just wait to see the FOSS version

>Can we have a UI trend that isn't extreme flatshit or extreme skeuomorphism?
I wish it was just simple again without extreme bloat

>>105587717
It's because Apple never truly wanted to adopt flatshit. They were the last FAGMAN company to do so. Zune, Windows 8 and Windows Phone was mocked for the flatshit design for years and the only reason it ever took off was because it was easier to scale on smaller devices like smartphones and tablets. Suddenly in 2012, Apple were hit was lawsuits pertaining to retards not being able to follow the maps app properly, licensing issues with the clock app icon, and then Scott Forstall, the software lead at that time was ousted from the company. Jony Ive took over, saw what these other companies were doing, and then decided it was best from a utilitarian perspective if they moved to flatshit. Tim just nodded his head like a good cuck and that was that. It would've never happened under Jobs, but realistically it would've had to happen in order for Apple to remain relevant in the smartphone industry. It was a great sacrifice for the sake of dumbasses and Apple's public image.
Now, all of the designers from Ive-era Apple are gone, Vision Pro is the next big tech leap for Apple and they're dying to finally escape this flatshit purgatory they've been stuck in for 12 whole years.

>iOS 18 just came out
>everyone is talking about ios 26

The fuck happened to 19-25?

>>105587970
>not being able to follow the maps app properly,
their maps were broken
> licensing issues with the clock app icon
didn't apple steal it?
>Apple's public image
their public image isn't worth shit these days
> Vision Pro is the next big tech leap
already taken out of production. what fantasy world did you transport from, rajeesh? you're not fooling anyone here.

>>105588050
apple have decided to name their operating system based on years instead of release.. i assume. i wonder if the industry will start copying them!?!

>>105587669 (OP)
I wish Linux was a viable alternative.

I love it. It distinguishes us from the rando android users. Don't you hate when you are behind some mexican abuelita and she got her a chink-droid with a broken screen. Colorful apps litter her screen.

Now with liquid glass, people will see that I am not some poor.

>>105587742
>an early beta for developers have some unattended issues
NO WAY

>>105587669 (OP)
they already are.
I've seen a bunch of devs UI libraries trying to make similar stuff

>>105587742
Honestly there's many was they can fix this.
increase blur.
Increase background contrast
Tint them and make them more colorful like Windows Vista/7

(people forget windows 7 was quite readable due to the fact that it also did a lot of tinting and darkened/blurred the area behind text in windows/start)

>>105588564
Android users can use custom launchers and many will definitely adopt liquid glass, if they aren't already capable of having liquid glass skins.

>>105588620
Notice how behind the Text area behind the "MSN.com" text there's a white tint.

Microsoft just knew how to design UI better.

>>105588628
You can certainly get a lot of things done with custom icons and custom launchers.

Problem is the UI libraries provided by google are not really designed for this.
Google went all in the material design thing and only recently announced version 3.

That looks like the embodiment of depression. A common symptom of depression is a less vibrant perception of colours.

It genuinely doesn't look that bad. It may look weird on some wallpapers

>>105588059

Then how can I still buy one? Maybe you're just full of shit.

its so fucking frutig AHHHHHHHHH

It was because Scott Forstall left Apple and he was the main proponent of skeuomorphism. They have no choice but to replace it with flatshit

>>105587744
Remember when Samsung 'dunked' on apple for the notch?
and then not 2 years later the Galaxy had its own notch

>>105589167
>t. retard

>>105588663
Man I wanna go back bros

>>105589459
Samsung is the king of dunking on Apple shit and then doing the same exact thing. They also did it for the removal of the headphone jack and the removal of the power brick.

Aero was peak design and I'm glad its coming back

>>105587669 (OP)
I hope so, Aero Glass was peak for me and seeing it comeback as a tendency would be the best.

>>105593864
>Everyone copies crapple.
indeed they did

i quite literally dont see the difference between this 'liquid glASS design' and their old flat design.
shit looks the same (and boring)

>>105594066
Do you not see the glass transparency/blur effects at all, anon?

>>105587669 (OP)
it still looks like flatshit to me. can someone explain?

>>105593347
This is frosted glass, not aero. Aero had little to no blurring. Aero used text shadows.

>>105587744
>even microsoft is dunking on you fucking failures for ripping off windows.
Windows is and has always been a hodgepodge of ideas that Microsoft plagiarized from IBM or Apple.

>>105587669 (OP)
thank god they finally came to their senses...

>>105587669 (OP)
okay the colorized versions actually look good IMO

Love to see it.

i was into frutiger aero before it was cool, now i'm moving to flat design

>>105587669 (OP)
>>105596488
Stop trying to shill your font, fag.

>>105596488
absolutely based

>>105587669 (OP)
Daily reminder that it was never called "Frutiger" Aero.

>>105587669 (OP)
used to have a better version of this on ipod touch from cydia

>>105587669 (OP)
they should make a desktop version of this and make it run proton / gameonlinux / wine bottles by default (and mine tf out of user logs to increase compat / make presets)

why are so many retards calling this fruitger aero when it's still just flatshit but with some reflective material? if this is frutiger aero then so is windows 11 because of its mica material.

>>105595654
>aero has little to no blur
dumbest shit I've read all day

This isn't frutiger aero

>>105595654
>Aero had little to no blurring.
It had pretty much just as much blur, anon.

>Aero used text shadows.
Fair, Apple needs this and I hope it's added..

>>105597543
that pic is offensive to aero

>>105593347
>what if we copied Aero but made it awful to read too

>>105597650
>lets take the glass, but forget the borders, shadows, edges, and contrast to ensure it's impossible to use

>>105597683
ebin :DDDDDDDDDDDDD

Windows 7 was nicest UI, liquid glass is ok concept terrible execution so far

>>105597683
Liguid ass

anything to kill this shitheap flat pajeet design

>>105596488
i was into frutiger aero before it was cool, now im still into frutiger aero

thats not FA thats just glass my guy

>>105597683
iSizters... not lige dis....

>>105589842
Within a year in each case too. Mocked the headphone jack, then removed it by the next model. Absolutely spineless.

>>105587669 (OP)
I remember using a theme on a jailbroken iPhone years ago that looked just like that.

>>105587669 (OP)
Yes. Apple has set UI standards for over 40 years now.

>>105587669 (OP)
Flat design is good design.
Ornamentation is noise.
Only what is necessary is necessary.
Death to Aero. Death to Aqua. Death to skeuomorphism and its abject incest baby neomorphism. Long live minimalism.

>>105587674
anything is better than current aesthetics
>it's so ugly
and what kind of person doesn't like an aesthetic that resembles, even minimally, the frutiger aero

>>105589882
I wish I could get this to work, aero was the peak of UI experience.

>>105598475
sovl

>>105588663

What would a dark mode of this look like? I wanna see it.

>>105587669 (OP)
this is a ploy to kill the performance of older phones and force you to upgrade. What they are doing there is not just a blur effect (which is quite cpu intensive as well). But these are layered blur effects.

You'll need to upgrade your device, goy. Also, battery duration will get recked as well. And also, it looks gay as fuck and is unreadable. I'll tell my parents not to upgrade to this shit, there is no fucking way they can read this.

>>105600166
probably like this?
Idk i found this pic on google.

if only they hadn't implemented it in such a disgustingly ugly way...

>>105587669 (OP)
They introduced a cheap imitation of aero glass.

not like this shit was legible either
