Steve Jobs would have fired someone for that.
People's taste are different. Luckily Apple has Jony Ive which as Tim Cook put it, probably has the best taste in the world. iOS 7 is amazing.
Nothing beats "Find my Friends" IMO
Everyone cried when they went skeuomorphic.
It doesn't matter. That's what's great about the people getting all upset. I've been on this forum long enough to know that any type of change, the people will hate it for the first 6 months. Then it will become near and dear to their hearts until it's changed again 2 years down the line. It's a cycle of cynical people who can't enjoy anything until they've been given enough time to warm up to it.iOS was and still is skeuomorphic and there seem to be many misconceptions about that term. Skeuomorphism is more than just a leather background. Many people here actually seem to like change, but not just any kind of change.

I'm more concerned about functionality than what a stupid app icon looks like. I'd love to see Apple make iWork a true Google Docs/Office competitor. Take away any advantage Microsoft thinks it has with Office on a tablet.

How did a sunflower indicate photos? Yet I think everyone got along with it just fine for 6+ years.

What about iWork apps? These do look a lot better than some other iOS 7 icons though.
You think Steve Jobs would've fired Jony Ive?
I expect all of iLife and iWork to be updated for iOS 7 (look and icons)
iBooks to FINALLY be updated for iOS 7 (look)
And Find My iPhone should get that iOS 7 look.
Also, I want an ergonomically acceptable musicplayer for iPad. Mr Ive destroyed my Apple experience.
Hahah this is hilarious, especially the storage aspect. I absolutely adore people when they cry about storage. Like seriously? You need more than 64gb? Really? Storage is for those people who have problems where they want a million apps they never open on their device, a million songs they never play on their device (they just want their entire awful library of music on it), and a million pictures they'll never view. Luckily Apple knows this and doesn't care (well, beyond 128gb anyway).

Oh god you are so dead on with the first part. Seriously everyday on my MacBook Pro I'm so excited to see what they're doing for 10.10. I cannot wait to see that UI overhauled just like they did with iOS 7. Everyday I look at it and it's like a glance back at the horrible iOS 6, because the icons are terrible and you still see that linen background on certain things. Oh and luckily you can change the dashboard background because I would literally never have swiped over to that blissfully terrible Lego looking background for it. I am sooooo pumped for 10.10.
Explains why I like them so much. One of my favorite vacation spots!Welcome to hawaii
