With iOS 7, Apple has significantly altered its design guidelines, including simpler icons and a sleeker layout. We're thrilled here at Visiolink about the new guidelines, which serve to strengthen focus on content, and are thus in tune with our own ideals for digital publishing. Unnecessary 'decoration' has been relegated to the background, and navigation within the operating system is supported by simple icons and animation that provide the reader with a better overall experience.

Visiolink's new iOS app has a flatter, more streamlined look, with more space for actual content. The icons are also simpler: the shadows and colour transitions have been removed; the skeuomorphism (i.e., the use of graphic elements that resemble objects found in reality) has been toned down; and a number of buttons have been replaced by more intuitive means of navigation.

Through a series of cases and demonstrations presented at the webinar, you can experience the options made possible by the new iOS 7 design, including:

  • The option of selecting from different themes, such as light, dark or colour variations.
  • New buttons and icons, and an introduction to the 'key color' concept
  • Focus on content
  • Explanatory animations
  • Dynamic Type support

There will be ample opportunity during the webinar to ask technical, design and project-related questions.
