Apple Unveils iOS 7 with Major Design Overhaul, Multitasking and Control Center

[Amazing Iceman]

Crap! More waiting to do

 

[Hotboyzz]

Keeping my jailbreak....

A number of these options are available now via Jailbreak.

 

[jamswirl]

Did I see something to do with support for game controllers? That could be big.

the colors for that control panel are terrible. simple black and white would've been much better.

Typical response from the totally uninformed.

Ermmm... okk

 

[Bladers]

I'm sorry but It will take more than a facial lift to make me apart of the flock again.

iPhone 5S ?

Absolutely blown away by Mavericks and iOS 7 ..did I miss an announcement for the 5S ? Was there a hint I missed ?

Hunh?

Finally no need to jailbreak!!!

There absolutely is...to get rid of those hideous "flat" icons to start with!!

 

[igazza]

It's growing on me fast. Best to watch the videos on your iPhone http://www.apple.com/ios/ios7

Um, so your word is the end all be all and anyone who disagrees is a troll?! Why don't your thoughts beyond 92 characters, this isn't Twitter.

Says the person with a sentence for "Location"?

iOS 7 looks phenomenal. There will be people that don't like it, and for the most part, they will be people that I don't like. Because, I typically don't like people that have no taste, or appreciation for intelligent design.

Outstanding features.

Shockingly, mind-blowingly ugly design.

I'm simply stunned that this is Jony Ive's work. It's... Hideous. But I will still upgrade because the functionality enhancements are tremendous.

I wonder how many features are going to be striped from the iPhone 4 and 4S. No surprise that 3GS users won't get upgraded. Shame that Apple still sold that product for so long.

Icon designs suck, and what is that black on white theme for god's sake... I hope we can change it or at least make it white on black theme. Loved the new optimizations on the software though. Some stuff absolutely taken from android, noone can deny that. I see a lot of trials incoming, here we go again..

If changing icons was ever your reason for jailbreaking, then the statement stands.

No reason to jailbreak.

Ooooh new colors and icons. Magical.

Some cool new features. Mostly meh to me.

is that a good thing? i'd rather have them stock than have to continually jb

 

[bad03xtreme]

So how does one obtain the beta version?

I couldn't disagree more - iOS 7 looks stunning and a fine return to form for Apple innovation-wise.

overall review

love the new design - awesome - awesome - awesome

hate a few of the icons - safari

cant wait to get it on the new improved iPhone .....s


best line " you dont need to go round the room bumping your iPhones"

 

[Sedrick]

Notice how even Apple cut off the huge top and bottom bezels for the presentation.

Lot's of cool stuff, though I still can't put icons where I want.

 

[Razeus]

Was there any word of Flickr integration or default apps?

 

[iLoveMyApple]

I'm SO excited to download this in fall. Mavericks too!

It is translucent and showing the background pic...

What was so mind blowing in OS X Mavericks? the fact that they finally added decent multi monitor support? Like us in windows have had since 2001 with Win XP? Or the new and life altering Finder Tags? Because that's basically the entirety of the new upgraded OS X. Hopefully they only charge 9.99 for it. OS X 10.7 was 29.99, OS X 10.8 was 19.99, so OS X 10.9 should be 9.99. And that's still too much for what little new features there are.
