I just mentioned the tabs disappearing is better solved than in Apollo, didn’t say that was mandatory as per guidelines.
As for the frosted glass effect it is UI as well as UX, as UI contributes to the UX. If you personally don’t like it, that’s your thing. It’s especially nice to have the content scroll under the bars, it makes the static boring monotone footers and headers come to life and gives you the illusion of a bigger screen. Take the latest Netflix design on iOS for example. The header is huge, but the video poster moves so nicely under them. All the Apple iOS apps have this effect. And a lot of Apple users care
It doesn’t contribute to UX, it’s purely a visual thing. I’m more interested in design guidelines that pertain to UX and usability.
Maybe we’ll add glassmorphism as an option someday, but the priority to me would be usability issues that go against apple guidelines.
