Before Columbus, everyone believed the world was flat. It was a fundamentally minimalistic idea that was easy to understand. With Apple’s new iOS 7, that same simple concept is resurfacing in the world of app development. The new iOS 7 promotes a Flat Design that works with the end user to provide a pleasant experience. The design is fundamentally a tool for usability. There are no bells and whistles. iOS UI Transition places a premium on being clear-cut and user friendly.
If you’re developing apps for iOS 7, it will be helpful to keep three main themes in mind:
- Deference – iOS UI helps users interact with the content and never competes with it.
- Clarity – A focus on functionality allows for adaptability depending on the user’s equipment.
- Depth – Visual layers and realistic motion increase a user’s understanding and pleasure.
