Apple has started rolling out the third developer beta of macOS 26 Tahoe, according to Apple’s Developer Webpage. This update come two weeks after the release of macOS 26 Tahoe beta 2. Since its already July, we can expect the Public Betas for this version to be released soon.
macOS Tahoe includes a new design implemented across the system called “Liquid Glass”. This is the second redesign of macOS in the recent times after macOS Big Sur. Everything from icons to the System UI will now adapt to the surrounding elements with the translucent material. According to Apple,” The new material, Liquid Glass, is translucent and behaves like glass in the real world. Its color is informed by surrounding content and intelligently adapts between light and dark environments. Born out of a close collaboration between the design and engineering teams, Liquid Glass uses real-time rendering and dynamically reacts to movement with specular highlights. This creates a lively experience that makes using iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch, and Apple TV even more delightful.”
