I dislike the glassy search field in Golden Gate. Also the pill shaped toolbar items clash with the straight edge of the sidebar
The sidebar still overlaps the content, if they want it edge-to-edge they should go back to allowing the wallpaper to bleed through and have it be the backing layer
Pick Sequoia or Tahoe. They don’t mix
I had been planning to add whimsical and more 3D-style tabs to my sidebar to switch between sections (similar to Xcode's navigator)
Feels like everything is a bit up-in-the-air now
The same scrolling on iOS 26 works with this design because I spent time building the layers of the UI with the intent for the content (editing surface) to go edge-to-edge
I feel like I need to completely rethink my design after I just spent a year rethinking it for iOS 26
What I mean about scrolling. Here it is on 27. Content "behind" the sidebar fundamentally doesn't work anymore because there is no inset to give the impression of edge-to-edge content
The panel containing the tabs scrolls up behind the sidebar, but it's a vague blur
Pretty disappointed with the sidebar regression in iOS 27
Left is Codea's new editor on iOS 27 (left) and iOS 26 (right)
I'd specifically designed the new collapsable header (where the tabs live) to render under the sidebar
Now when you scroll up a vague blur shifts within the sidebar, but there is no indication that the content is extending behind that area. And for some reason it's rendering glass-on-glass effects which will need a lot of adjustment to look OK
