Corner radius

Corner radius is how round the corners of a surface or control are. Apple and Material round different things by different amounts, so one value rarely suits both.

What does each system call it?

The same idea under its Apple, Material 3 and Appetite UI name.

What value does it take on iOS and Android?

Read from the kit’s Platform collection and its Material 3 pages, as the docs print them.

Platform variables, variable, iOS, Android
VariableiOS (ios-md)Android
platform/control/corner8Full (9999)
platform/sheet/corner1228
platform/dialog/corner1228
platform/card/corner1212

In practice

Material 3 makes buttons fully round and sheets and dialogs round at 28; the iOS mode of the kit keeps controls at 8 and sheets at 12.

Appetite UI holds both answers as Platform variables: platform/control/corner is 8 on iOS and fully round on Android, platform/sheet/corner and platform/dialog/corner 12 against 28, and platform/card/corner 12 on both.
