Does your dislike of the flat color style mean you also dislike Metro and most Android OS versions? I'm not saying iOS7 is great, far from it, just asking....
Yes, I dislike both Metro and Android.
Android is too cluttered and messy. Metro is just plain dull.
This picture sums it up pretty well

LOL. Way to use screens from years ago.You can have as much info as you want on Android. You can make it cluttered, or you can make it clean. Up to you.
I hope they don't mess up the Garage Band UI. The adverts where they show the guitar strings and drums demonstrate how far computer human interfaces have come via direct manipulation. But iOS 7 is a step backwards.
Apple apologists say that people who don't like iOS 7 just don't just change.
Many people who don't like iOS 7 wanted change, but it had to be good change. I find iOS 7 amateurish, ugly, and awkward to use
The whole "abstract is better than metaphor" argument that seems to go along with the fashionable anti-skeuomorphism stance is crazy... MS DOS was abstract, but I don't think people thought that was better than Mac OS.
The reason to be upset is not about change. It's about how hard to look at the new GUI is, how little differentiation and meaning there is in the new icons, and how unintuitive the controls are becoming. A GUI design that has its origins in minimalism and web design is not a discoverable interface for people unless they're veterans of said design.
Anyone remember the brutalist architecture style? This is it, except it has color barf all over it.
What the hell are YOU talking about? That whole app is the epitome of skeuomorphism. Don't you know what that term even means?
