Apple just dropped a clue on Jony Ive’s iOS overhaul

“Whenever Apple sends out media invites to its official events — such as for its iPhone 5 event — it likes to drop subtle hints as to what it has up its iSleeve,” Evan Niu writes for The Motley Fool.

The next “version of iOS is arguably one of Apple’s most important in years, as it will mark a dramatic shift for the platform that drives more than 70% of sales,” Niu writes. “iOS 7 will be the first version under design chief Jony Ive’s influence, following Scott Forstall’s ouster in October, and it’s set for an aesthetic overhaul.”

Niu writes, “The teaser is striking on a number of levels and much more interesting than in previous years. Even the font that Apple’s using here is a departure from its normal corporate typeface, and looks clean and modern (MMXIII is the roman numeral for 2013).”

  1. From the shape of the overlapping icons, it looks like there is going to be a complete iOS UI overhaul. I guess we will find out soon. 🙂

    One thing is 100% certain is that Samf_ck will release it’s Android OS UI updates (that bear close resemblance to iOS 7) immediately after Apple release iOS 7 during WWWDC.

  2. Hmmmm… Anyone notice that the color pallet of the WWDC logo uses EXTREMELY similar (and unusual) colors that are used for this years E3 gaming expo? These really are unusual colors for an Apple promotion, and if you look up the E3 page you will see an almost exact pallet of colors in the “smoke” of the E3 promotions. Interesting?
