After reading the headline, most readers probably thought that we in the editorial office simply don't like the new iOS 7. However, it is just the opposite from the new iOS 7 we are literally thrilled and we have nothing to complain about when it comes to design. However, we have proof that Jony Ive actually returned iOS back to 2005, even two years before the moment when the first iOS appeared in public. In the picture below you can see one of the first prototypes of the mobile phone iPhone, which would be produced in 2005 in the company's laboratory Apple led by Jony Ive.

You can see the iPod logo on the back because the original prototype iPhone based on the design of the aluminum iPod miniHowever, if you look at the display, you'll see icons that look very similar to the ones he introduced today. Apple v iOS 7, the first operating system created under Ive's leadership. Jony Ive up to iOS 7 did not participate in the design of the operating system and everything was under the direction of Scott Forstall, who, as you can see, rejected Ivo's vision from the very beginning and changed iOS in their own way. As you can see, Jony Ive now he has continued the eight-year-old concept and has shown the same flat design, similar icons, colors, dock and even the exact same signal indicator.

The screen you see on the prototype is just a mockup, i.e. just an image that Ive used for his device. Because Ive designed Hardware, only Hardware, and the operating system at the time when its appearance was determined by Scott Forstall, he did not see.
