Have you ever noticed how the progressive blur at the top of the iOS Maps app “erases” the labels and icons, and keeps just the base map in the blur, so it doesn’t look “busy”? Has been like that for years, and that’s not how the iOS 26 scroll edge effect looks, so it must be something special…

@vlas It may not be part of blur logic. If you look at the labels at bottom edge, you can see that they fade out near the edge. So at top it probably combination of fade and blur. But the result does look neat.

@allu22 I did wonder if that was the case. They certainly don’t just animate out when near the edge – only the part covered by the blur is faded. But you may be right that it’s not part of the blur itself, and instead the view that hosts the labels and other annotations may simply have a gradient mask at the top.
