Title: Three reasons iOS 19 redesign could be bigger than iOS 7 Post by: HCK on April 09, 2025, 04:05:07 pm Three reasons iOS 19 redesign could be bigger than iOS 7
<div class="feat-image">(https://9to5mac.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/6/2025/03/iOS-19-dark.jpg?quality=82&strip=all&w=1600)</div><p>I started using OS X full-time when I was 18 and the Mac was 25. Booting up my first Apple computer, a 2009 MacBook Pro running OS X 10.5 Leopard, was like getting behind the wheel of a Porsche for the first time after being raised on pedestrian PCs.</p> <p>Now it’s the iPhone and its software that are 18. In Macintosh terms, the iPhone and iOS are in the iMac G4 “iLamp” running OS X 10.2 Jaguar era — maturing products and platforms that still have room to grow up.</p> <p>For this reason, I am still one to welcome changes to the way things look with open arms. ‘It looks different’ is a great feature if the way it looks is cool. “Does it look cooler” is a different question than “does it look better.” The former has more to do with trends while the latter is a matter of longevity.</p> <p>If a change can be both stylish and practical such that it can last for years, then that’s a design change success. iOS 7 was too polarizing and required too many iterations before reaching stability to really hit that mark. iOS 19 has the potential to meet both metrics. It could also be a bigger deal than iOS 7 for three reasons.</p> <a data-layer-pagetype="post" data-layer-postcategory="ios-19" data-layer-viewtype="unknown" data-post-id="996392" href="https://9to5mac.com/2025/04/02/three-reasons-ios-19-redesign-could-be-bigger-than-ios-7/#more-996392" class="more-link">more…[/url] Source: Three reasons iOS 19 redesign could be bigger than iOS 7 (https://9to5mac.com/2025/04/02/three-reasons-ios-19-redesign-could-be-bigger-than-ios-7/) |
