In iOS 26, there is a new way to configure corner radius using the corner configuration API. This API allows for the customization of shapes, such as the new UI glass effect, which can adapt its corner radius based on its proximity to the container's corner. This is part of the broader design updates in iOS 26, which include features like container-relative corner configuration, allowing corners to automatically adapt to their container. This is discussed in the session Build a UIKit app with the new design (20:38).
