Eddy Cue testifies in a US court about a case he was in Apple accused of monopoly practices in the field of e-book sales. While the fateful trial is still not nearing its conclusion, interesting information about Steve Jobs is surfacing. According to Cue, he was Steve Jobs deeply interested in application development andBooks and the entire electronic book system on the platform iOSSteve Jobs' books on iOS interested them more than anything else, even though he was convinced of the inappropriateness ofBooks pros iPhone and iPod touch or Mac and wanted to offer the app only to iPad users.
Steve Jobs decided to offer in iBooks The Winnie the Pooh book was a sample book that was available for free thanks to the drawings, which literally enchanted him. It was the illustrations that showed the possibilities of digital books in the application iBooks. Beautiful colorful drawings that Steve Jobs never seen before in a digital book, they decided to offer it to users completely free of charge. Steve Jobs he was also the one who invented page turning in iBooks while leafing through a book, which is forBooks typical. Unfortunately, as Cue pointed out, the old-style page turning will now disappear, as new ones will appear at the end of the year. iOS 7 and it will also offer a redesigned app iBooks.
Here, skeumorphism was a great fit, evoking the feel of a book. They are stupid to cancel even this.
I agree, it's as if they said that it removes skeuomorphism from everything, and now it has to do the same for things that simply don't make sense to change. It's a shame.
Things are not flat and simple. They have shape, size, colors, shadows. Anyone who watched the floods iOS, so he admired him. I have a lot of friends who have Android and they do too iOS 6 The environment smelled good.
I agree that they didn't have to remove him completely from everything even where it had logic and justification.
Well, we'll see what the final version will be like iOS7
I don't mind if they delete it in the calendar or notes, but this was always on the iBooks the best! I understand they can remove the book from the background but turning the pages is the best.. I'm curious about Garage Band for example if there is a guitar how would they change it so it's not a skeuromorphism…
John- I know a lot of people who have Android and only a few of them don't criticize the design iOS 6. And unfortunately now on iOS 7 curse even more
