Apple's new interface changes in iOS 7 have roiled some iPhone and iPad customers. But developers have more than enough troubles of their own integrating the major system update. The update is bringing some tough choices to developers, according to developer and author Matt Neuburg, in a fascinating post at TidBITS.
In How iOS 7 Will Affect Developers — and You, Neuburg details developer and user interface issues with the primary interface changes, such as buttons; new UIKit Dynamics animations and blurred transitions; background downloading; text changes; and bugs.
Neuburg shows screenshots of his app Zotz! before and after iOS 7, and discussed the implications for its usability. Unfortunately, the changes necessary to update the code may make it a pain to maintain older code.
