we take a closer look at Apple’s brand new iOS7. It’s cleaner, more colourful and refreshing…but most importantly, it’s very very functional.
Was the risk worth it? What do you think?
Setup
notice the new keyboard UI
Home Screen
it’s like…candies! the clock and calendar [thanks KAC for correcting me] icon is finally live too!
folders now take all the focus off everything else on screen
transition animation, mid-flight.
we all have WebOS to thank for this new multitasking system.
iOS Notification center marries Google Now cards…
The brand new Control Center, accessed ANYWHERE by an upward gesture! very useful indeed.
Spotlight Search also gets a revamp
Settings
Control Center- quite possibly the best thing on iOS7
Spotlight search is actually still here but it’s no longer accessed by swiping left on the Homescreen.
battery drainer?
hello Bing.
search field suggestions and preload
Camera UI and features
plain old camera, but then:
it’s an Instagram-photobooth takeover!
stylised, AND ready for Instagram sharing (@ square)
Photo samples
Apps and other things
new sharing options and UI
it’s no longer green. jonny has done well to remove all the skeumorph UI.
Newsstand
Appstore
Mobile Safari tabs look beautiful
the new Calculator
but Siri doesn’t yet know of McDonalds in my local area…
that’s it for a quick walkthrough. if you’re interested in seeing the rest of the screenshots, then swing by our Facebook gallery!
