WhatsApp's iOS 26 Redesign Sparks Mixed Reviews
Some WhatsApp users have been treated to an iOS 26 redesign, but iPhone owners have very mixed reviews.
The update appears to be rolling out gradually. WhatsApp is the most popular messaging service, but has yet to fully embrace the dramatic new appearance included with iOS 26.
Liquid Glass Visual Language
The Meta-owned messenger is slowly adopting the new Liquid Glass visual language rolled out by Apple. Liquid Glass uses see-through visual elements that create a sense of depth and ensures content is always the main focus on-screen.

- Creates a sense of depth
- Ensures content is the main focus
Apple refreshed all of its apps to support Liquid Glass at launch, but third-party developers have taken a little longer to embrace the new visuals.
