I upgraded my phone to iOS 26 and it mostly looks and works fine. Most of the issues with Liquid Glass seem to have been addressed, although I feel like the new UX is a lot less conductive to people learning more advanced functionality... Anyway, why the hell is "Stop timer" a slider now.
@Gargron I'm personally not updating due to iOS 26 having restrictions on JIT access to sideloaded apps. Although some apps support iOS 26 JIT, it's not perfect.
