Turning off Liquid Glass

2025-10-15 17:38:39.403069+02 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

How to turn Apple's "Liquid Glass" macOS 26 and iOS 26 into a solid interface.

Aside from the obvious "Reduce Transparency" (and the "Increaes Contrast" which also turns on "Reduce Transparency"), there's also

defaults write -g com.apple.SwiftUI.DisableSolarium -bool YES

and then log out and back in. It also suggests "System Settings > Accessibility > Motion > Reduce Motion".
