Android phones are starting to look more like iPhones, and some fans are annoyed

A writer at Android Authority says Android phones are borrowing too much from the iPhone, and he is not happy about it. The piece, titled "The iOS-ification of Android is ruining my favorite phones," says Android's "obsession with copying Liquid Glass" is starting to get on his nerves.

What Liquid Glass is

Liquid Glass is Apple's new look for its software. It uses see-through, glassy menus and buttons. The writer says Android makers are now copying that style across their phones.

Why the complaint stands out

The writer is an Android fan. He says he loves Android. His complaint is about a design trend, not a case against the whole platform. That makes it a useful signal of how some longtime users feel.

Who it affects

Anyone who picked Android for its look and feel could notice this first. Your next phone, or your next software update, may feel more like an iPhone than you expect.
