macOS 27 will clean up Liquid Glass glitches in Tahoe

Apple will introduce this year macOS 27 with macOS 26 Tahoe most talked about in Liquid Glass He focuses on his flaws. According to information from Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, the company is preparing a slight design refresh that overhauls shadow and transparency effects on the Mac side. This change particularly concerns Mac users who want to read texts more easily in the Finder, Control Center and sidebar applications. Apple also announced WWDC 2026 8-12 June 2026 He announced as.

macOS Tahoe brought the same visual style to Mac as iOS 26 and iPadOS 26. Apple is describing a new interface language for Liquid Glass that refracts and reflects light in real time, but this look doesn’t produce as clean results on Mac screens as the iPhone and Apple Watch. Because while iPhones, some iPad models and Apple Watch use OLED screens, a significant part of the Mac family still comes with LCD screens. The MacBook Air design was introduced to the user in 2022, and the MacBook Pro and iMac design language was introduced to the user in 2021.

The problems that Tahoe users notice most occur in transparency, shadow and textured areas. Especially dense lists, sidebars and text-heavy sections sometimes do not provide the expected clarity. In Control Center, Finder and similar application areas, background effects can overshadow the text. For this reason, Apple wants to make Liquid Glass more balanced with macOS 27, rather than removing it.

The company took the first step in this regard with macOS Tahoe 26.1. In this update, Apple added a setting for Liquid Glass that gives you the choice between the default transparent appearance and a slightly tinted appearance that increases opacity in apps. Thus, users can choose a simpler view on screens where background effects make text difficult. Despite this, according to Gurman’s news, Apple will not leave the solution only to the settings in macOS 27 and will also regulate the general behavior of the interface.

Safari will automatically sort open tabs into groups

Apple is also testing a new tab editing feature on the Safari side with macOS 27. According to Gurman, Safari will be able to automatically divide open tabs into groups according to topics. In today’s version of Safari, the user creates tab groups, names them, and manually moves tabs between groups. If the new feature is included in iOS 27, iPadOS 27 and macOS 27, the browser will offer a more streamlined flow during intensive research and work sessions.

Apple’s “27” operating system releases this year won’t just consist of visual touch-ups. The company also keeps bug fixes, battery life improvements and performance increases among its main agenda items. On the artificial intelligence side, Siri will stand out with its renewed design, separate application and more proactive assistant approach. Apple is working on a more conversational interface for Siri and integrations that bring Apple Intelligence features to more parts of the software.

On the Vision Pro side, the situation progresses more calmly. According to Gurman’s news, Apple does not put closed-head hardware such as Vision Pro at the top of its priority list in the short term. visionOS 27 will follow the lines of support, maintenance and feature parity for existing Vision Pro users. In Apple’s long-term plans, the goal of strengthening the software basis for lighter augmented reality glasses stands out.

macOS 27 shows that Apple isn’t backing away from Liquid Glass, but wants a more readable experience on Mac displays. The company expects this visual language to be better responded to on the hardware side with products such as the OLED touch MacBook that will come later. This year’s software suite follows a pipeline of updates that trim Tahoe’s bugs, introduce automatic tab ordering to Safari, and make Siri more visible. The WWDC 2026 opening will make clear how Apple will communicate these changes.
