There have been rumors
in recent weeks that Apple is planning a complete redesign for iOS 7
that moves away from the "skeuomorphic" look it has relied on to date,
which designs digital objects like real-world objects. Now, one digital
agency has come out with a video imagining what this kind of redesign
might actually look like.
In the concept video above, Simply Zesty
shows off a flatter user interface. Each of the app icons have
less-rounded edges and cleaner designs. The calendar app ditches the
look and feel of a printed calendar in favor of a design more like the Sunrise app. The weather app has a more minimalistic design that is similar to Forecast, a web-based weather app from the makers of Dark Sky.
We should find out soon enough just how accurate this concept video is. Apple is holding its annual developer's conference next month where it is expected to unveil the next version of iOS.
Are you a fan of this concept design for iOS 7? Share in the comments.
keep up with the newest technologies and contemplate about how these will be used in the future. On this blog I'll share my thoughts about the future of technology, based on the
High Tech RoadShow inventions of today.
