Apple may or may not revamp iOS to look like the concepts hanging around the web like eye floaters. But one thing is certain. The Cupertino giant has a lot of examples to draw some inspiration from.
The latest such example comes from Sentry, a veteran in iOS conceptry who proposes a new way to switch through apps.
Mac users will find the animation particularly reminiscent of the OS X Dock, where simply by hovering with your mouse over the icons, a magnifying effect kicks in.
Sentry believes the same thing can be replicated in iOS with great success. And frankly, so do we. The concept makes a lot of sense from where we stand, and Apple could well consider implementing this in iOS 7.
It takes some real-world testing scenarios to validate this type of functionality, but we’re sure Jony Ive and the software engineers at Apple can pull it off.
