Reddit’s iOS app is adding Liquid Glass soon, here’s how it looks

Apple’s new Liquid Glass design launched last fall in iOS 26, but third-party apps continue to roll out support, and Reddit’s iOS app will do that very soon. Here’s what Liquid Glass in the Reddit app looks like.

Latest Reddit beta for iOS adopts Liquid Glass design

Last week Apple published an extensive developer gallery showing how third-party apps are implementing Liquid Glass. It’s a great overview of how the iOS 26 design has spread widely already.

And now, another prominent iOS app looks on the cusp of adopting Apple’s new design.

The latest Reddit beta, available in TestFlight, adds Liquid Glass to the popular social app.

Christian Selig would've had Apollo fully ready for Liquid Glass prior to iOS 26 coming out of beta. I miss Apollo, but I honestly don't really miss Reddit since greatly reducing my usage after effectively forcing Apollo to shut down. I still pop in once in a while, but mostly for something specific, never to burn time like I used to.

Here are some screenshots, as shared by Aaron Perris on X:

If you’re interested in getting Liquid Glass in your Reddit app, you can find instructions for joining the beta here.

Though it’s unclear how long Reddit will keep the update in beta before launching to all users, after some limited testing I wouldn’t be surprised if it ships very soon. The Liquid Glass implementation seems pretty solid already.

What do you think of Reddit’s use of Liquid Glass in the latest iOS beta? Let us know in the comments.
