How can I achieve the result of buttons glass effect like sample videos that was show at de WWDC25? I tried a lot of approaches and I still far a way from the video. I would like something like the pictures attached. Could send a sample code the get the same result?
Thanks
You get the new glass look automatically. Just create normal UIBarButtonItem instances with appropriate images and set them to the view controller's toolbarItems. You automatically get the look in the second picture. You just might need to correctly use fixedSpace or flexibleSpace to get the proper spacing.
See Build a UIKit app with the new design. Jump to the "Navigation and toolbars" section.
If you still need help, post your relevant code to get better help.
I'm also having trouble replicating the appearance of the UIToolbar on colored backgrounds as it was shown in the WWDC presentation.
It is true that it automatically gets the glass look in iOS 26. This requires no special code; just add a UIToolbar to your view. But it looks decidedly different than in Apple's video. Here's what I get:
I tried to adjust the colors using backgroundColor and barTintColor on the UIToolbar. But they have no apparent effect in iOS 26 (unlike in iOS 18).
It's possible that this is just a bug in Beta 1, and I'll file a bug report. But if anyone has been able to achieve the liquid glass effects in UIKit as shown at the top, please share.
@RickMaddy I'm testing with default toolbaritems etc.. but like the other user wrote above @iNick , the effect is far a way that Apple shown at the WWCD
