To add a tint to a glass effect in a UIKit app, you can follow these steps as described in the session "Build a UIKit app with the new design" from WWDC 2025:
-
Create a New UI Glass Effect: Start by creating a new UI glass effect. This is where you can assign a custom tint color.
-
Assign a Custom Tint Color: Set the tint color on the glass effect. This will allow the glass to adapt a vibrant version of the tint color, enhancing the visual appeal and legibility of the content.
-
Animate the Effect: You can animate the changes to the glass effect, including the tint color, to create dynamic visual transitions in your app.
For more detailed guidance, you can refer to the session Build a UIKit app with the new design (21:44) where these steps are discussed.
