I made a macroumors just to say i miss the ultralight font it was beautiful! and i hope apple add a toggle for regular and ultralight in the next beta.

What does everyone else think?

The beta 1&2 font was Helvetica Neue Light, not UltraLight. UltraLight is so fine you can barely see it at normal size (I was going to use it in an app I'm working on, but ended up going with Light since it's much better). Now they're just using Helvetica Neue Regular.

I preferred Light, myself. I really hope they change it back for beta 4.

Regardless there are already numerous discussions on this though...

My bad, Helvetica Neue Light was just perfect IMO I'm glad I'm not the only one.

Thank you.
 
The fact that the choice of font now appears to be the biggest gripe about iOS 7 is a good sign IMHO. I personally prefered the lighter font, but many people claimed to have trouble reading it. As a result, I believe Apple was correct in changing it.
