I still don't get why "Songs" is under "More...". They made Radio the first class citizen, and made it hard to get to the actual iPod functionality.

Likely because since most people have hundreds or thousands of songs, it's much easier to select by the other options like playlist, artist, or album first and then select the song you want. And if you know a particular song you want but don't know the artist or album, using the search bar or Siri is much faster than scrolling through hundreds or thousands of songs.
 
Speaking of Music player, cover flow still seems a bit slow on my 4S, however scrolling through things outside of cover flow is super speedy now. In Beta1 I was getting frequent crashes due to freezing in Music player when I scrolled too much.
 
Relax man, this is just the first update to the beta software.

No, I think it's going to be pretty similar to that in the end. How long does it take to make a Safari icon? I could make one now in Photoshop in a few minutes that would look better than this.
 
If you want to see precise timestamps for each message drag left on the message field... pretty solid!!!

+1 The iTunes Store icon hurts my eyes. Neon glow pink, I just can't stand it. Fortunately I don't use iTunes Store on my phone. The others are somewhat better, but too saturated, like a cartoon, and the gradient is too harsh, too overused. :confused:

Maybe I am confused but are the icons not just used to click into the app. How many people are really spending more than 10 seconds at most looking at an icon. It is nothing but the launch link for the app. I really wish people would get over it.

And the guy that posted that they still havent 'fixed' the Safari icon: It's Apple's baby, not ours. Evidently they are not fixing what they feel is not broken.

It would be nice to have the timestamps shown without needing to drag left, especially with the bounce back from dragging.

I'm sure it's been mentioned but not weeding through hundreds of comments, when charging the lighting symbol flashes next to the battery.

The Time stamp is still on the main message feed for every few text messages, if you need more precise time than that you drag left, its not that hard to do, plus it de-clutters the message field.
 
Looks like they're using not only adaptive color technology, but adaptive general taste tech, too. If you pick a butt-ugly wallpaper, it adjusts the OS to be more butt-ugly as well.

ive updated and my dock is changing colour depending on background?..

When are we going to be able to rate our songs again using the Music app???

This is literally killing me! :(
 
Edge? You're seriously suggesting that this design by Aplpe is a new style made by Apple? No edge mate, just a mixture of different styles all-ready been used by several companies years ago.

Edge: give an intense or sharp quality to. A quality or factor that gives superiority over close rivals or competition.

Never said this design was groundbreaking or new to the world. But I would go so far to say that iOS 7 is cutting edge as far as mobil OS designs go. Cutting edge above the competition in terms of visual dynamics, typface, etc. Even compared to iOS 6.

Same here... surprised there isn't more discussion about this. Understood it's a Beta, but it seems like an odd feature to remove.
