WhatsApp Begins Broad Rollout of Liquid Glass Redesign on iOS
WhatsApp has initiated a broader rollout of its new Liquid Glass design interface for iOS users, marking the end of a months-long limited testing period. This update represents the first stage of a comprehensive visual overhaul for the application. Initially tested in October 2025 on a small scale, the redesign now affects key areas such as the bottom navigation bar, the top navigation bar of the main Chats interface, and various in-chat elements. Meta has been progressively adapting this aesthetic to other components, including the voice message player, message reactions, and context menus, although some of these features may not yet be updated for all users. Reports from users on social media platform X confirm the availability of the new look. While the rollout expands access to the modernized interface, reaction has been mixed, with some users expressing dissatisfaction with the changes. The article indicates that further integration of the Liquid Glass style across remaining UI elements is expected in the near future, continuing Meta's effort to refresh the app's visual identity on Apple devices.
