A couple of months after Apple released iOS 26 to all users, the company is still updating its stock apps with the Liquid Glass design language. The latest first-party app to get the all-new UI experience is the Apple Store app, which even got a new icon. The main change is the new Liquid Glass menu bar, which lets users slide through sections in a more engaging way. The Apple Store app features the For You tab, Products, Go Further, Bag, and Search.
The For You tab highlights trade-in suggestions, AppleCare offerings, Today at Apple sessions, and other details about the company’s products. The Products tab, of course, highlights the latest Apple hardware, in addition to a dedicated holiday picks section. The new Go Further tab focuses on Today at Apple sessions, tips and tricks about Apple products, and suggested services. Finally, you can check the Bag tab to see the products you’re planning to buy.
Apple Stores are also ready for the holiday season
While some reports had suggested that Apple was considering introducing new products this week, the company actually was planning to update its stores with holiday season material. On the online store, users can find a selection of products to gift to family and friends. While Apple only offers discounts through trade-in and education programs, the company highlights other perks of buying in its own store, such as making products more personal by engraving them.
The selection includes the new iPhone models, accessories, and even products that should’ve been updated this year, such as the HomePod mini, Apple TV 4K, and AirTag. At this moment, it’s unclear if Apple plans to update these devices in 2025. Still, reports still suggest the company is readying updates for these devices in the coming months. If you don’t already have it installed on your iPhone, you can get the Apple Store app here.
