How do I remove the liquid glass look from app icons on iOS 26?

I think the liquid glass option is ugly and looking at the layout for too long gives me a headache. how do i remove the feature or get rid of the outline on all my app icons? i feel like it should be optional instead of forced.

You don’t need voices here, you need feedback here https://apple.com/feedback

Do we know that can have an effect? What does Apple do with that information? Do they have any process? Are there thresholds for a topic to be considered or talked about? I imagine they have to categorize feedback somehow. I don't see an iOS option there, so maybe the best category is iPhone. But I wonder if they have another category beyond that, such as for iOS.


The community forum is nice because other people can see it. For instance, I'm here, and I've learned some things. And I know I'm not alone. Perhaps there is zero consideration given to forum activity such as this by Apple, but it's still nice to talk about it here.
