About this listen

 Benjamin and Chance discuss the Liquid Glass design changes that came as part of iOS 26 beta 3, debate whether it looks better, and whether it retains the spirit of what Apple presented in June. There’s also a handful of other interesting changes in these latest betas for iPad, Watch and Mac. Plus, Apple formally appeals the EU on anti-steering requirements, and Jeff Williams announces his retirement in the latest significant shakeup of the Apple leadership team. And in Happy Hour Plus, Benjamin discusses the report that Apple has submitted an official bid in the rights negotiations for streaming F1 in the US. Subscribe at 9to5mac.com/join.
