Beta 3 keyboard comes with inverted-color Shift keys

iOS 7.1 Beta 3 testers are reporting a strange change in the keyboard layout. The Shift keys are discolored when selected, and colored when not.

While it may not sound like much of an annoyance, those who’ve tested it assure us that it is. User Killian Bell is quoted by CultofMac as saying, “To me, Apple has the shift colors the wrong way around. It’s white when it’s not selected, but grey when it is selected — surely it should be the other way?!”

Indeed, it should. And it would be alarming if Apple rolled out iOS 7.1 Final like that. But I don’t think they won’t. It’s probably just a slip-up on behalf of the Cupertino company, and I’m 100% sure this will be rectified in iOS 7.1 Beta 4, or iOS 7.1 Beta 5, the latest.
