I just updated to iOS 26 and the App icons look fuzzy. I do not like it.

I think they were going for some kind of underwater effect but for me it’s more distracting than anything. One day we’ll look back and remember when flat designs were cool.

Are the icons from first party apps or third party? I thought I read somewhere that third party apps have to update their icons to be optimized for iOS 26.
But honestly I haven’t seen (or noticed) any blurry app icons myself. Can you give me an example of a common app that I might have?
 
It looks even worse on Apple Watch. Yea.. how to go back to flat UI design.
