iOS: Clean, Simple and Boring

      "Hey I have iPhone 5 iOS 6!" said a friend. "Oh really? But it looks, feels, the same as iOS 4 though. It just better iPhone with old concepts"said another friend.......

      As we all know. iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch all their user interface has been the same as it were years ago. Nothing have changed at all. But the modern world like something cool(as ice!), new(and shiny!), mystery(what the....?). So us, the users made a video to suggest apple to tweak their user interface. So it doesn't look plain and boring.

      Why is it plain and boring? For example if we want to turn on airplane mode, we would need to unlock the screen, go to setting, *tap* *tap* *tap*, in order to turn it on. Boring isn't it? The video shows that at the lock screen, instead of just a button for photo, add a lot of functions to it.

      So what do you think? It it a excellent idea? Brilliant idea? Or wonderful idea? Leave a comment below!
