Drag windows up to close their apps in the new multitasking UI (left), or swipe down on the main screen for the search bar
There are improvements. iOS’s search facility can now be accessed by swiping down mid-screen on any of your main pages of icons, though it doesn’t work when you have a folder open. Swipe up from the bottom of the screen and the new Control Centre panel also sits above a blurred view of what lies beneath.Flow Arrange free puzzle game

Control Centre (CC) is new to iOS 7, though Android and other mobile operating systems have utilities that are very similar. CC provides long absent one-click buttons for controlling device features such as Bluetooth and Wi-Fi, to put the phone in flight mode, and set the screen-orientation lock.
It also has a screen brightness slider - just one of number of items here that were previously tucked away in the left-most page of iOS 6’s bottom-of-the-screen multitasking menu. CC handily also provides direct access to the Calculator and Camera apps, and the Timer section of the Clock app. What's really handy - and rendering dozens of third-party apps redundant - is a button that lets you use the camera’s flash as a torch.Is that support for smartwatches I see?
Alas these Control Centre app triggers can’t be changed - I guess Apple has decided we have the dock for that. But at least CC is also home to music controls, AirPlay media routing and AirDrop, and the new-to-iOS-7 Bluetooth-initiated device-to-device file-transfer system. In all, CC is a useful tool that’s not so much new as simply expanded and made more accessible in the new iOS build. Which is essentially the real theme of iOS 7, more so perhaps than the flight from skeuomorph.This is true of the new multitasking menu, too; still reached
through a double-tap of the home button, or swiping up with four fingers on an iPad. Gone is the series of dock-height pages of icons of running apps as seen in previous iOS incarnations. It's been replaced by an Android-style gallery of app windows, the app icon beneath each one, which orientates correctly whichever way up you hold the tablet - though it’s portrait only on the phone. There’s no question it’s easier to spot unwanted backgrounded apps now - likewise to remove them: just drag the app’s image upwards off the screen.
I was never a big user of iOS’s Notification Centre - which is where little icons announcing incoming emails, texts, reminders and other things are listed. It just seemed to duplicate information supplied in other ways. The new version is no different in that regard. Swiping down from the top of the screen to invoke it is no easier or more difficult than tapping on, say, the Weather app’s icon, or that of Mail, Stocks, Twitter or whatever, to get at the information required - especially since you often have to visit these apps anyway to read other messages that may have been pushed off the list by more recent notifications.
Textual buttons in navigation bars don’t always make for a neatly arranged interface
Ditching this graphical cruft in favour of simple labels is a plus point. But one downside is that you need some way to convey to the user that tapping on a bit of text will perform an action. Apple’s approach is to use colours: black for text, and a colour - any colour - for a button or link. Not that Apple is even remotely consistent in the use of this: some apps have wordy buttons, others retain icons, albeit freshly designed ones.Colours or not, relying on clearly visible words rather than pictures also means buttons are now bigger and that brings another problem: messy layouts. Long lefthand-side buttons, typically used by navigation controllers to step back to the previous view, push the centrally aligned page title text to the right, or force it to shrink in size if there’s a righthand button that has to be accommodated. This isn’t a problem on wide devices like the iPads, but it’s very noticeable on the iPhone or iPod Touch.
Calendar remains largely unchanged, but it does get a year-at-a-glance view and a more modern look
Music is one of just two iOS apps that appear to have had a lot of work done on them behind the scenes. In this case, though, the new version feels like a step back three or four generations. For example, the handy swipe right to delete an album - the way swiping right is used to delete emails in Mail - is gone, replaced by the aforementioned navigation gesture. If we’re all supposed to be pulling the tracks we want from iTunes in the cloud, surely we’ll need to delete some older albums now and then to make room for new downloads?FRom: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2013/09/19/review_apple_ios_7/
