The Solar Dial Apple Watch face has almost completed a one-year trip around the sun! Very grateful to have had the opportunity to design this watch face, and honored to have worked alongside some really talented engineers to bring this dial to life.

The latest project I’ve been working on is the design of Liquid Glass, alongside an army of designers and engineers. We're designing it to bend and shape light while feeling like an elastic, flexible material that can dynamically shape shift, to make apps feel fluid and organic.

A little side project I worked on this year was the design of this new flashlight UI in iOS 18.

@sdw @chan_k 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

OK this new flashlight UI in iOS 18 beta 3 has absolutely no right to go this hard. Too cool

I contributed this little shockwave moment to the new AirDrop and NameDrop nearby sharing features in iOS 17. Give it a try!

I did a short WWDC presentation where I share some of the thinking behind the design of the Dynamic Island, as well as a bunch of examples and pointers on how to design for it. Check it out in the second half of this talk: developer.apple.com/videos/play/ww…

"The Dynamic Island feels not merely like a shape or dedicated area at the top of the screen, but like a real thing with personality. I have genuine affection for it already." So proud of this feature we worked on getting a really positive response. daringfireball.net/2022/09/the_ip…

The new project I designed arrives today - the Dynamic Island. Its goal is to feel like a living, elastic bubble that can fluidly shape shift into different alerts and experiences. This is just the start, but I’m excited to see it begin its life!

@BCiechanowski You’re genius! Nice work Bartosz! Always enjoy your interactive articles. Miss the days working with you. Hope all is well!

@s4l4x @chan_k Thank you so much Alessandro!

@ms_ccwan @chan_k It’s beautiful and properly contextualizes the range of available daylight. Something we struggled with on the Solar Apple Watch Face. Really nicely done!

@_sferrari Thank you! Glad you like it.

Lovely piece by @Hodinkee on our Solar Dial face. I really loved designing this watch face and it’s amazing to see people resonate with the design details of it. hodinkee.com/articles/the-e…
