The biggest upgrade to IOS 7 is the relaxation of development privileges

Silicon Valley Network News according to 9to5mac, Jony Ive has spent a lot of time on iOS to promote flat design and remove design elements that help add texture and materialization. But 9to5 says the degree of iOS flattening is not as exaggerated as Windows Phone, and Windows Phone's interactive interface is almost entirely composed of different color squares and blank spaces. If the flat design is really on iOS, it will be the biggest change in the interface design style since iOS was released in 2007.

In addition to the changes to the most surface design interface, 9to5mac's sources say iOS 7 will also have many built-in improvements. For example, the integration of Flickr and Vimeo, the introduction of the road to optimize the map, and add to the local file transfer airdrop function. There is not much news about iOS 7, but that does not mean that iOS 7 upgrades are limited to this. From iOS 5 and iOS 6, iOS 7 is not much improved, but it is still unclear whether it will meet consumer expectations.

For developers, the biggest upgrade to IOS 7 is a relaxation of development privileges. While Apple does not fully open iOS, Tim Cook promises that Apple will provide greater API access and loosen some of the previously banned development paths. But it is unclear whether the measures will be formally implemented during the year, perhaps just the long-term plan of Tim Cook.

Mac OS X: For advanced users only?

There is not much news about iOS 7 so far, and there is less news about new OS X. According to 9to5mac, Apple is likely to launch version 10.9 OS X on WWDC next week. It is reported that OS X will adopt some iOS design, and add some advanced user expectations of features, such as Task Manager will be similar to the design of iOS, MSN to add to the multi-screen support, the Finder will increase the label navigation function. In addition, the Siri Voice helper and map features similar to iOS are likely to appear on OS X, and Safari browsers will be updated to load faster.

Hardware: MacBook with Haswell processor, released new version of Mac Pro

Although Apple has not been quick to update the processor, it is one of the first manufacturers to use the new processor. Moreover, as the fourth generation of the core series, the Haswell processor has a lower power consumption and also uses integrated graphics with better performance. The Haswell processor is clearly adding to the MacBook's competitive edge for the MacBook series, which has been the selling point of the campaign and has been criticized for its graphics. It has been predicted that Apple will use the same approach as last year's WWDC to update all the products in the MacBook series.

Earlier, 9to5mac had exposed some of the newer MacBook's product models, and AppleInsider found clues from the dealership. They found that the MacBook Air and 13-inch MacBook Pro with the retina screen were in a state of disconnection at many dealerships, and that the dealer's demand for the two MacBook was low. That means Apple is likely to upgrade the MacBook series. As for Apple's specific upgrade plans, whether to release a MacBook Air with a retina screen or a lighter and thinner MacBook Pro, these questions will have to be answered by Apple on WWDC. But for most Mac users, replacing the Mac will be a big expense.

In addition, Apple has said it will release the new Mac Pro Desktop computer this year, but it is unclear whether it will be released on WWDC. At the same time, there are many news that Mac Pro will adopt a new design. Intel has updated the Xeon E5 processor this spring, which will be a good choice for Mac Pro. Mac Pro has been completely discontinued in Europe since it did not conform to certain regulations, and mactrast also found that the Mac Pro Inventory of U.S. regional distributors is falling, meaning the new Mac Pro may soon be coming. If there is a new Mac Pro, then as Apple's top desktop product, the new Mac Pro will support the USB 3.0 and Thunderbolt interface, and will be in the hard disk capacity and other areas to make a huge upgrade.
