Yes, you can change the background color on the navigation bar for Liquid Glass. Liquid Glass allows for custom colors to be applied, but it's recommended to use them selectively. The navigation bar and other small elements adapt their appearance based on the background to ensure legibility, flipping from light to dark as needed. You can specify a different tint color if needed to communicate information about the action, as mentioned in the session Build a UIKit app with the new design.
