Apple has had two months to refine Liquid Glass since introducing the design language at WWDC. It’s addressed some of the biggest complaints — the Control Center, for one — and left us to live with some of the others. This week on The Vergecast, Victoria Song and Antonio G. Di Benedetto join me to discuss Liquid Glass and all of Apple’s other software updates now that you can finally test them out in the public betas for iOS 26, iPadOS 26, and more. Then Matthew tells us about his experience at the diner, from trying the $12 “Epic Bacon” to trying to use its eco-friendly utensils. We’re talking Faraday’s very questionable new minivan, Amazon’s very questionable AI acquisition, Uber’s very smart safety update, and Apple’s very thirsty new subscription service.
