Design Videos: WWDC25
#Apple
WWDC 25 brought a visual refresh that’s hard to miss. Apple’s going all in on unifying the look and feel across macOS, iOS, iPadOS, and even watchOS, with consistent UI, icons, and motion across the board.
At the center of it all is the new Liquid Glass design language. It’s glossy, layered, and undeniably Apple. But when I tested it on iPad, I wasn’t sold. Visually slick? Yes. Accessible and usable? Not quite yet. The blur-heavy approach looks good in theory, but in practice, it makes things harder to read, especially in light mode. Fingers crossed it gets better in upcoming updates.
There were some bright spots though. Motion across the system feels smoother than ever, and SF Symbols got a solid upgrade. CarPlay Ultra was also a quiet standout — super polished and very on-brand.
And iPadOS? Finally starting to feel like a real productivity tool. With better multitasking and desktop-like behaviors, it’s no longer just a big iPhone.
