Designer Paul Seaman has prepared a new draft hours iWatch, the main "trick" which became elongated curved display and an almost unlimited functional device.

Quick setup in iOS 7: easy access to the parameters of the system [concept]

The secret to making a good concept iOS is to take into account the basic rule of Apple - the company had not fundamentally change the system interface. As a rule, it is the introduction of some specific elements of iOS, such as Siri, Spotlight, Notification Center or panel multitasking. However, we all want new improvements in each successive version of the mobile operating system from Apple. In this article, we will focus on superior concept quick settings for iOS 7, developed by designers  ALManimation .

The idea came from the same desktop screen Siri, which can be seen when running the assistant. The only icons have been replaced by those that are in the system by default. According to the designer, when he started making the concept, the quick system for android I know. It can be established by the expressions of his acquaintances. The developer has found an application that has a similar design of the interface and some of the same functions. This was the perfect example for the creation of what you can see in the screenshots in this article.

The problem of multi-tasking bar, according ALManimation , is the power button and unlock the screen rotation. For several years, Apple does not change the set of functions. However, the importance of this key is understandable. It is very useful on the tablet iPad, because, for example, iBooks can operate in different positions, and the user chooses a convenient position of the screen. It is also important in the button and the iPhone, where it performs a similar function. However, in its new concept developer indicated it is not needed in the case of the existence of "the Quick Settings" from where you can easily enable or disable the screen rotation.

Edit mode

Very useful and convenient at the same time, showcased in the concept is the ability to move the menu items. Because the very idea, as you have seen in the screenshots above is a list of quick settings by moving some of its elements is a very important aspect for convenient use. In addition, you can hide the unused items, thus shortening the list and select only those menu items that you are going to ask very often.

Dynamic settings

A very useful feature is the addition of quick settings options in the application list. Simply put, if you are currently using, for example, Garage Band, its settings are displayed directly in the quick settings. Thus, you will not need to dig into the application interface to find there the sound settings and other functions.

Rapid access

Calling themselves the Quick Settings developer proposes to "hang" the gesture of shaking. Of course, many people know that such a gesture is used, for example, when printing text, allowing you to open a modal window with options editing. But the same functionality performs the corresponding button on the keyboard, see the icons on the iPad. On the iPhone, the author sees the solution to add a button to the workspace.

However, many applications use a shake as one of the main (or more) ways of managing the program. The author offers to circumvent this situation, disconnecting the call quick settings by pressing the desired button in the application. Access in this case you can get from the panel of multitasking.
