Even a master carpenter gets cut sometimes. During the past week Apple not only did he introduce an operating system iOS 7, but also launched its official website, where they try to inform about the changes and interesting features that await us. Apple but accidentally revealed on his website the appearance of icons that were originally supposed to be on the system's home screen iOS. We believe these were icon prototypes, as the system design has visibly changed several times during development.

If you were lucky enough to visit the official website Apple iOS 7 in time, you might have noticed that Apple showed a different icon look for several apps on his site. These icons probably represented older variations of the built-in Weather apps, Game Center, Reminders, Passbook, Newsstand and Photos. However, it is possible that some of these icons represent the future and that they will appear in the final version of the system iOS 7. The most visible changes can be seen in the appearance of the Weather and Passbook applications. While the current Weather icon shows the sun and clouds, the prototype icon shows the current temperature. Thanks to that Apple already at the conference WWDC showed that iOS applications will be able to have animated icons, the indicator of the current temperature, or the state of the weather, could make sense. Phil Schiller however, he stated on his Twitter that the real reason why sa Apple decided to change the live icon to a static one, there is an impact on battery life.

Visible differences also concern the Passbook icon. While the official image of the icon presents blue, green and orange colors, the revealed prototype shows mostly green colors, namely turquoise, deep green and light green. In this case, the change only concerns the colors used, but our editors think that this version looks more welcoming. The signs on the "tickets" remained the same, so in both cases we will see one plane ticket, a ticket to the cinema and a ticket to the cafe.

Another visible change can be seen in the Reminders and Newsstand app icons. While the official version offers soft gray and white backgrounds respectively, on the prototype icons we see a visible gray background color. In the case of Newsstand, there has also been a minor change in terms of the size of the "Travel" magazine. It is slightly smaller and narrower in its final form. The various comment points also changed their color variation from blue, yellow, gray and pink to orange, blue, green and purple. We can also see a slight change in colors, or a shift in colors, on ikone of the Photos application. The last detail is hidden on the ikone Game Center. Icon prototype Game Center covered the red orb with the blue, but in the current version the red/pink orb is in front of the blue.
