iOS 26 app icons are based on the inspiration of liquid glass. Liquid glass and transparency effects were already becoming trendy, and overlapping objects were already being seen in logo and icon design. If you have noticed, clear icons also have a blur filter applied to the area where the icon is placed. This technique is also used in many UI designs to make it look trendy. You can also find transparent mockups and learn the technique. If you would like to create the same icons, then we would suggest you head over to Apple resources, as they have an app icons instructions page on how to create these liquid glass icons. They even have an app icon composer.
In the future, you will get to see new liquid glass app icon designs. We have also designed the iOS 26 style close-up app icon mockup in PSD format. You can change the color of the UI as well as the background.
