Woah, iOS 7 actually looks pretty sweet. Not gonna lie, I was worried.

Also, DAT Mac Pro.

 

[Smiles and Cries]

hey what is this dev stuff I want in I want some iOS7 love

paypal

who do I gottah pay lol

 

[captainwhat]

inject ios7 into my veins

 

[An-Det]

IOS 7 looks fantastic, can't wait for them to release the iPad 4 in a few months with it. Was really hoping for a retina Haswell Air though.

"can't innovate my ass" - Well fucking done, you designed a new case.


iOS7
-I like the ideas of categorisation in iOS7 (the photos especially).
-The translucency looks distracting.
-Control centre while nice functionally looks a mess
-The whole thing looks cramped on the iPhone
-This will be initially confusing to a lot of people when they update
-Lack of live icons is disappointing (at least they got rid of 72degrees)

Not one single chance my friend, so much so I feel like you didn't even watch the keynote.

 

[biosnake20]

apple.com has been updated with the conference video and all the new info.

 

[KingKong]

iOS 7 looks like a very pretty jailbreak

 

[layzie1989]

Typography and layout in iOS 7 is good but jesus christ is it gaudy...

 

[Heel]

All these shots fired today. Wow.

We ran out of felt. Removing wood is good or the environment. I'll just boot up Chrome.

lol

 

[Aldebaran]

iOS 7 looks amazing, sure, but what about functionality? Sharing options are still ludicrous compared to Android and we still can't change default applications.

 

[Troll]

iOS 7 looks extremely feminine. I'm pretty disappointed personally.

 

[tci]

iOS 7 looks great. But I wish they would stop talking during these demos. Feel like vomiting each time they open their mouth.

 

[POWERSPHERE]

Looks incredibly minimal to me?

And that Mac Pro... Holy moly.

 

[Sirolf]

I'm in too for the beta !
Will paypal a fee

I completely agree, you're talking out of your arse Nero.

And who's that Craig fella? He was brilliant. Get him to do every keynote please.

 

[GWX]

Very impressed with what Apple showed today. Can't wait for Mavericks, really impressive feature set and performance improvements. iOS 7 is simply amazing, although I still have to get used to the new interface. Mac Pro looks gorgeous, and 12-hour battery Macbook Air is impressive, although it needs at least an IPS display. It was worth the hype, at least to me.

yeah, it looks nice but at the end of the day it's still iOS and i won't come back. good job tho.

iOS 7 is a fantastic looking skin over the same tired functionality save for a feature or two like the control center. If they would allow you to choose default apps like browsers and maps and allow the user a little more (not even a lot) customization then it would have been a home run.

 

[tim.mbp]

Love the new IOS 7 look. Glad they added all your cloud purchases to the music and videos apps. Love it on Apple TV.

 

[Majine]

One thing I'm concerned about is how much physical space things take up on the screen. Notification Center for example clearly holds less objects on the screen at the same time as before.

 

[Nero3000]

Not one single chance my friend, so much so I feel like you didn't even watch the keynote.

Admittedly i did have split attention between the Xbox conference and the jumpy stream on an iPad.

I may be wrong, and it might be completely like being in a newly painted home, but i did say initially for a reason. I have have no doubt that it'll be easy once you get used to the change.

Edit: after seeing the website, looks a lot more familiar (and less cramped) than when watching the keynote.

Exactly. "The world’s most advanced mobile OS" lacks some pretty basic features.

 

[Liu Kang Baking A Pie]

A lot of this looks butt ugly right now, but I appreciate them going all in on this. They're confident, and they nailed a lot of the usual iOS complaints.

 

[Ken Masters]

no haswell retina, what the hell apple

 

[Air]

Those asking for total control over the default apps probably aren't the people apple is trying to sell to.

I loved everything I saw besides the air share feature or whatever it's called, only because I have a 4s

 

[reKon]

dat roboto type font

 

[Nori Chan]

Is the rumor about the screens looking diffferent if you have either a white or black iphone true?

They mostly showed the white iphone for the pics

 

[SuluDance]

I'm willing to chip in for a developer account license.

 

[Killthee]

Jesus fuck at that Mac Pro O_O

 

[drspeedy]

Was more impressed with IOS7 than I expected... still not everything I wanted, but I'm glad to see a lot of the improvements they made.


Not digging the color scheme, personally, maybe it'll grow on me

Very true

Have posted a thread about begging for Beta access. Will finish updating the OP once I get to work.

[Tabris]

I'm in love again.

 

[Maximus.]

iOS 7 is absolutely stunning. Really good visual design, interaction design, usability and unification. Love it and cant wait to use it. The Mac Pro IS INSANE. The air battery life and price point is awesome. Mavericks is a cool new naming structure, but I am a bit disappointed the visual identity is still the same. I guess the next one will be a visual refresh. Overall I am so happy with iOS 7 and cant wait to use it!

Control over things like what browser you use is built into OSX. So why the disconnect for their mobile platform? To say more people use safari on mobile devices?

 

[Tobor]

iOS 7 looks great to me, in that nothing is confusing or fubared. I was worried the baby might be thrown out with the bath water.

/thumbs up

 

[bob page]

Man, the new UI is extremely disappointing. Every designer I know is up in arms over it too. At first, I thought it looked awesome but the more I look at it, the more I hate it.

It's just so inconsistent and ADD. Tons of conflicting shapes, fonts, margins, etc.

I was hoping Apple would win me back with iOS 7, but this is just a let down.

 

[Miyahon]

Oh wow so Airdrop isn't compatible with any of my Apple devices only for the newest ones including the Mini. :/ I will upgrade my 4S later this year but even my iPad 3rd Gen is barely a year old.

 

[vio]

iOS 7 looks extremely feminine. I'm pretty disappointed personally.

Very feminine. Doesn`t help they are using white iphone to show it (on the website).

How dare I choose my own default apps?

 

[layzie1989]

Looks incredibly minimal to me?

And that Mac Pro... Holy moly.

sorry, i should clarify I meant the color palette. Its so neon and bright everywhere. Really a disappointment in that regard along with the icons are just pain to my eyes.

 

[Air]

That's never been apples m.o.

I'm sorry if you didn't know that.

Control over things like what browser you use is built into OSX. So why the disconnect for their mobile platform? To say more people use safari on mobile devices?

I don't see why they would want users to do that on mobile. There was a good article with cook saying that people buy these apple devices because they trust them to make good decisions for them. Would the added options be nice? Sure, but I think that goes against their message.

 

[numble]

MFi game controllers and FaceTime Audio (they need a better name for this) are stealth hits.

 

[radios shipping overview]

Gave me Jelly Bean feels, with typical Apple polish added on top. The parallax thing is

iOS has always favored ease of use and consistency over user customization. That stance goes back to the first iPod, and it's not going to change now.

 

[Ydahs]

It's a mess in my eyes, but the new features are welcomed. Radio sounds great.

I'll give it a fair shot later in the day if I can be bothered upgrading to the beta.

 

[Ashhong]

I think it looks beautiful. Can't wait to use it

 

[LevelNth]

I fully get the inability to choose default apps complaint, but isn't it nitpicking at this point? I mean, does it really matter outside of Maps?

Or is Chrome more popular than I thought? Anything else even part of issue, or is it just two apps?

 

[Talon]

So that was pretty sweet.

 

[bionic77]

Can't believe how much Apple dropped today. Not expecting that!

Can't for hands on opinions.

Also, is 7 teraflops possible?

Nobody trusts Apple with Maps.

It's been a year and there has been no significant map improvements in the UK. It remains unusable.

I have to say, it's very pretty, but the lack of centralised file storage and being able to kill Apple Maps in favour of functional alternatives is really bringing me down.
