Apple Updates 'Apple Store' iOS App for iOS 7

apple_store_app_icon_ios_7_150In what is undoubtedly the first of many Apple iOS apps to receive updates for iOS 7 today, the company Apple Store app [Direct Link] has been updated with iOS 7 compatibility, a new icon, and a "refined user interface" more in line with the iOS 7 design aesthetic.

The updated app appears to carry identical functionality to the previous version, although the company has been reported to be planning to push out a new tool within the app next week that will allow customers to check stock levels of the new iPhone models at their local Apple retail stores.

Update: AirPort Utility [Direct Link] has also been updated with the new iOS 7 look.

I got an iBooks update today, but they didn't update the design for iOS 7. Didn't even touch the icon. Weird!


I thought the same thing...

still... not a universal app.

I think they probably feel the iPad is good for viewing the full Apple website...but who knows.

Skeuomorphism isn't a dirty word. In fact, there's still areas (I'm covered by a NDA so I can't go too into depth) where Apple encourages it, when appropriate.

iTunes store unavailable for me too.

Forget what the nay-sayers spew about Apple, iOS 7 is big news and it looks like Apple's servers are going to be melting today. Par for the course I guess. I'd love to update everything today, but I expect it'll be a day or two before the update servers cool down enough to get a reliable connection/download speed.

The price of popularity! :)
