Comment on iOS 26 Beta 2 tones down the Liquid Glass effect

Date-based versioning sounds great in theory, but if you have more than one version in support at once then it can get ugly quickly

What do you mean?

Say you released version 2023, 2024, and 2025, all of which are in support at the same time. It’s 2025, but your latest release might be 2023.2, which looks like it’s out of date to a user.

Apple bumps the version number for everything every year nowadays, so not a problem for them.
