Yeah that's pink.

I've noticed when I hit the home button twice to see what apps are running, that some of the apps are very transparent. You can see the icon, but the app above is transparent. You do need to have a few apps running to notice this.

Interesting comparisons of subtle changes:

Wise move on switching the default wallpaper. What they had was horrible.

When I enter a folder, it becomes transparent. At the base level, they are a translucent pink.

It depends on the background you are using, somehow it picks a color from the image - and with that one, you got the pink.

It does look like it picked the tongue for the color.

Yuck.

I'd be interested in hearing how that algorithym works.

Various parts of the iOS 7 UI change color based on the selected background.

Which I am finding to be quite frustrating, although I have largely stuck with the now default star field background.

I don't have any problem with it but I think it would be nice to allow some user tweaks or the ability to disable the color selection.

Question for you mperdue - on the iPad version of iOS7, are you running the Kindle app? And is it functional? I am asking because I am tempted to try again with the new beta on my iPad, but the Kindle app is a must-be-functional-app for me.

I only have a couple of kindle books but they seem to be working time on my iPad.

Unfortunately, my book crashes iBooks.

I thought beta 3 had fixed MLB At Bat, but alas, the audio does start, but drops after about 30 seconds.

Ok, good to know.


Audible is still broken on the iPhone, but I wouldn't think the beta would fix it as much as Audible issuing an app update. But if I go to iOS7 for my iPad, I want to make sure my key apps are functioning.

That is exactly what is needed.

Not that I use it much, but my SIRI doesn't work with Beta 3.

I have a 4S on Beta 3 and SIRI works fine.

Beta 4 restored SIRI for me and removed my pink folders. MLB at also restored!

 

[jrp]

MLB at Bat, that is.
