The Home Truth...


I just saw the above picture comparing the current ios home screen to the ios 7 home screen and one thing jumped out at me straight away, let me ask, do you see it?

ios 7's icons are all that little bit bigger then the current ios's icons, now you may ask, why would Apple have increased the size of its icons? The only logical explanation that came to mind was that it was unconsciously prepping its consumers needs.

So even as I write this I can hear you questioning: But why?

I do applaud who ever came up with the idea, but I do also question if more people will see through this little ploy. Apple are in desperate need for an excuse to increase the screen size on its iPhone lineup, after all a year ago when it released the iPhone 5 it had to explain to customers why the 5" screen with its given proportions was the best possible option that consumers could go for, now it would look and most probably feel quite silly if it had to say, well actually a larger screen iPhone such as what Samsung have offered for over two years is actually the way users can get the best possible experience.

Only time will tell if I've hit the nail on the head or if I should start wearing a tin foil hat on my head.

stay tuned for further updates!
