There have been numerous polls here, each poll giving the same result: 70%+ of people prefer the look of ios7 vs. ios6. And here it's full of people that complain for things like the beta being full of bugs.
The "look" of iOS 7 is more than just the icons. On the whole, I prefer the look of iOS 7, too. I like the translucency (except in the dock), I
love the zoom-in / zoom-out animations and multi-page folders, and I like the minimalistic approach to apps like App Store and Contacts. I even prefer some of the icons (Clock, Weather).
I'm not saying I hope Apple reverts to the iOS 6 icon set. I actually prefer the non-glossy look. I just don't think Apple executed it very well in most cases.
Look at icons like Facebook, Dropbox, and PayPal, to name just three. Those are well done. They have good colors, subtle gradients and shading, and they look terrific. Compare them to monstrosities like the Safari and Settings icons. Can you honestly tell me they're in the same league?
Now, how can you seriously expect to have a point?
I always have a point. I may not always be right, and you may not always agree with me, but I do always have a point.
I'm sincerely sorry that you don't like the new icons, but face the reality, you are the minority.
I'm not sure that I am. Yes, I've seen the polls that show a majority prefer the iOS 7 icon set, as a whole, to the iOS 6 icon set. But I've also seen polls where people voted on the icons one-by-one. Then the results were more mixed. In some cases people did prefer the iOS 7 icon to its iOS 6 predecessor. But in other cases, people clearly preferred the iOS 6 icon.
Again, I don't want Apple to go back to the iOS 6 icons, I just want them to do a better job on some of the iOS 7 icons.
