What’s Going on with Apple Design?


I’ve recently seen a few stories like this:

https://www.macrumors.com/2020/06/23/macos-big-sur-battery-history-and-estimates/

What’s going on with Apple? The icons are inconsistent and un-Apple; I’m very surprised such designs ever got out to the public.

Looks like perhaps they're going to try to re-live their iMac G3 MacOS 10.1 days of bubbly colorful UI? Can't wait to get my translucent tangerine iPhone.

Agreed - weird stuff.

if these actually do go public

Just a facelift for their GUI, and a better battery manager for OSX.

Ive is gone. The whimsy is coming back!
