So you're basing this all on a grainy photo of what someone claims is new app icons for iOS? :confused:

----------

It looks like its supposed to be a screen shot of a legit phone but then why not just screenshot the actual phone etc.

That said, we'll know in a week but I'm not going to be shocked if they look basically the same as they do now but without the gradient backgrounds.

Considering the newsstand icon is as fugly as ever I call BS on this, or its an early version that's incomplete. But if this is legit it puts to rest this lame idea that iOS icons are going to look like Windows 8.
 
apparently this is a really old pic of iOS 7 which was being tested and a lot has changed since the picture was taken, nothing to worry over yet.
Personally i think these few icons in the pic look great, am super excited for next week

Where did you hear that?
 
Uh yeah whatever. That wouldn't look too bad I guess. I don't understand the obsession with new icons anyway. Can't imagine I'm the only one not staring at my home screen icons all the time though. I wanna see some new functionality and Apple to open up more APIs to devs.

It makes me wonder why a several month old pic of supposed to be iOS 7 surfaces just a week before the announcement!!
 
The same reason why UFO videos are so blurry even though we have the tech to video someone in 1080p no problem.

Ever try to video a UFO, star, moon with your iphone camera? It's Zapruder, Patterson, Loch Ness type of quality. Just sayin'

Low light makes any HD video camera crappy unless you can control the aperture 100%.

I think its really bad. The icons themselves have to change.

Just removing the glare from the current icons is a bad idea and i dont think it will look something like that.

New icons.
 
It's pretty easy to fake...

OMG ANOTHE IOS 7 SCREEENSHOT HOWDYAGET IT EARLY WHERES THE DOWNLOAAD LINK??

But seriously this shows how easy it is to fake these things, and how susceptible some people can be to grainy, unfocused 'leaked' images.
Also, which theme is that?
 
Why the hell is everyone flipping out saying "If this is the only thing thats changing....blah blah"? Of course its not, get a grip. If this IS legit its just a single screenshot. Imagine all the magic one you actually tap one of those new icons!
 
Eh, personally don't find the change any significant or interesting.

Never had an issue with shiny icons and would be disappointed if this was what they spent 50% of their time and resources doing rather than bringing more practical features.

Developers don't "spend time" doing icons. Those are graphical elements a UX team designs and simply hands to a developer to include in the bundle of the OS.

A designer can't develop iOS anymore than a software engineer can spend time developing hardware.

IT'S BLURRY, IT MUST BE REAL! DARN YOU, JOHNNIE IVIES! [insert Steve Jobs reference here] :eek:

At this point, we're a week away from WWDC. I'm not believing any "new images" that are "purported early looks" at iOS7. There are too many Android nerds in mom's basement out there with too much free time and plenty of motivation to troll the Apple community.
