Hello 👋🏾 Just opened up Scrivener on iOS, and it seems some changes in the new UI (iOS27) is making the button bar difficult to make out. ![image](https://forum.literatureandlatte.com/uploads/default/original/3X/b/b/bb5b51df1c035616ba5b7ad557977ccdbefcd133.jpeg) ---

Nope, it’s the proper release. ---

Thanks. I’ve only been offered 26.7 on my iOS so I can’t check same here, yet. Fresh re-boot of everything doesn’t have an effect? (I know this a stretch, but often works) ---

Reboot didn’t fix it unfortunately. And the same thing happens on iPadOS 27 ---

Agreed, the new UI makes the toolbar icons quite hard to see. Hopefully a future Scrivener update can improve the contrast and readability. ---

Also on the new public release of iOS 27 and seeing the same thing. The new Glass redesign doesn’t like the Keyboard Row. The keyboard looks correct if you toggle it off, but then that loses the functions of the Keyboard Row. Also, it doesn’t matter what opacity you set Glass to. The Keyboard Row remains as shown in the screenshot in this topic. ---

The problem is that at the moment the keyboard row isn’t using Glass at all, and the iOS update has removed the background from the row. I’ve been hard at work on an iOS update for the past couple of months, and was hoping to get it out before iOS 27 but ran out of time. I’m just finishing a few things off, and it should be out in the next couple of weeks. All the best, Keith ---

Thanks for this update Keith and your hard work! Anxiously awaiting this iOS update.
