  "textContent": "In his _Power On_ newsletter today, _Bloomberg_ 's Mark Gurman said the latest internal version of iOS 27 does not have major Liquid Glass design changes, but there might be a new system-wide setting for precisely adjusting the look of the interface.\n\n\niOS 26.1 lets you choose between \"Clear\" and \"Tinted\" options for Liquid Glass, with the \"Tinted\" look adding more opacity to user interface elements. And with iOS 27, which is expected to be released later this year, Apple might go even further.\n\niOS 26.2 introduced a slider that allows you to manually adjust the opacity of Liquid Glass, but only for the Lock Screen's clock. Starting with iOS 27, Gurman said the setting might be expanded to the entire operating system.\n\nApple was initially working on a system-wide Liquid Glass slider for iOS 26, but it ran into engineering challenges when trying to extend it across the entire system, according to Gurman. However, he said Apple could go back to the drawing board and manage to get the system-wide slider working in an iOS 27 version.\n\n\"Apple is trying again now for iOS 27,\" said Gurman, in a social media post referring to the system-wide Liquid Glass slider. \"TBD if it lands.\"\n\niOS 27 beta testing should begin in June, ahead of a September release.\n\n\n\nRelated Roundup: iOS 27\n\nTag: Mark Gurman\n\n\nThis article, \"Apple is Aiming to Add a System-Wide Liquid Glass Slider to iOS 27\" first appeared on MacRumors.com\n\nDiscuss this article in our forums\n\n",
