ahh my bug report was heard. Check the locked screen phone call answer (slide to answer)
Same here. I think it's like that movie the Hangover which wasn't funny either but for whatever reason everyone loved. I think that the BBT is about out of material so hopefully not much more of that mess.
i was thinking the same thing, it just doesn't look right sitting next to the other icons.
Yes, good point, I was referring to closing ALL apps thinking that they are somehow running and affecting system resources. Apple designed their back grounding specifically so that you don't have to ever do this.
*White on very faint off white lol. For real though they should do it like Splyce. Very thin dark grey boarder. Splyce is just good design all around tbh.
I'm not sure which I like more...
I noticed that upon unlocking the phone, you can touch & open up the apps on the home page sooner. Used to have to wait until the parallax animation stopped before any of the icons would respond to touch, or at least that was my experience on Beta 4.

Thank the LORD! about damn time!
Noticing significant speed increases system wide on my iPhone 5. Animations load quicker and its not as bogged down, getting closer to GM!
If this is the final product (as I expect it is) then it is such a terrible design choice. The same thing happens if you take a screenshot with a white background, look in the photos app, you can barely see the "outline" of the screenshot.
Looks horrible imo.
I do have to say that I briefly went back to iOS6 for a few days and I like iOS7 much more. Although, there are still sorely missing features and strange design decisions.
But Control Center does not go against what Apple preaches. And they preach that Apps do not need closed. So providing a easy way to close 20 apps isn't happening.
You familiar with OS X? Know the little dot that tells you an app is open? Apple wants that dot gone because just like on iOS, in OS X they believe that Apps that are not "in use" are not important.
For all those that could actually care LESS... please do. Your caring level is MUCH too high.
That photos icon was a mock up of what it should look like instead. It still looks like the first one on beta 4.
Thirdly, most of those apps aren't even running. It just shows apps that were recently opened. There is no indication that they are running.
They seem to be updating the UI very slowly to become more consistent with every beta. That way they can change the UI to deal with criticism, but not be seen to be back-tracking...
Yeah Im split on the new setting icons too. I like that control center options had very basic icons within general settings, but I can understand getting some color in there. Do not disturb for example has the same IOS 6 color scheme (if I recall).
Gawd, so does Skype, apparently!the plants vs zombies games now open and play on this beta!
