Liquid Glass for Android is ‘not happening,’ at least not for Pixels

Google says Apple’s Liquid Glass redesign will not come to Android or Pixel devices.

Android chief Sameer Samat clarified the company will keep using its own Material Design direction.

Android 17 may still add more blur effects, but not an Apple-style visual overhaul.

The comment reinforces Google’s plan to keep Android visually distinct from iOS, even as some makers borrow Apple cues.
