With iOS 26.2, Apple Lets You Roll Back Liquid Glass Again — This Time On The Lock Screen
iOS 26.2 Liquid Glass Update Brings New Control Apple’s iOS 26.2 update answers a question many iPhone users have been asking since September: can Liquid Glass be toned down even more? The short answer is yes. With iOS 26.2, Apple introduces a new control that lets users adjust the transparency of the Lock Screen clock, giving them more control over readability and visual comfort.
