Are you sure you want to add newarkhiphop to your ignore list?

I clicked yes...btw. Not that you give a fukk. Just saying. Can't have a fukking conversation in this place without this fanboy shyt. Google dropped a dud at their last dev conference and I was utterly unimpressed (everything they did was done already by Apple) as a new HTC One owner. You didn't see anyone in there 1 starring and crying.

I dislike the square icons

Me too. Who knows though. Because if you look at the advertisements for WWDC everything is still rounded.

I don't have an iPhone anymore so I'm looking out for the iPad. Not sure how square icons would look on a rounded iPad.

Google like design :pacspit:

Apple does like to bite features every now and then between innovating.

But they usually do it in a way that no one else has thought to do it. I'll admit that. But if they just come with a Google like design or a Microsoft design and nothing else....I'll be disappointed.

Let's hope they change up the game again. Samsung going to be scrambling to update TouchWiz.

I wish they would just add more functionality and open up iOS a bit more. I don't care about a damn skin update. fukk is wrong with apple.

Damn, Google made Apple fall back on the design tip. shyts going into HOLO territory.

Before I get accused of fanboy shyt, I own a Mac/ iPad and am developing for both.

iOS is garbage man. They need a major revamp, especially in terms of widgets, notifications, lockscreen, and utilities usage.

That's why I left. Besides having to manage and watch my battery and a few issues with Apps...I'm enjoying Android far more than I did iOS on my phone.

If it wasn't for my reliance on GoodReader I would have considered a tablet jump too.

I'm hoping Apple does something.
