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.

Also, this is not an opinion forum, like Reddit or Quora. This is a technical support forum where users ask other users a technical question, like the original question of this thread, which was how to remove the Liquid Glass look. This has been answered over and over that you cannot remove Liquid Glass. So whether you or anyone wants to express their opinion, won't change anything, nor will it get anyone's attention at Apple.
