What path is Apple taking Lloyd?

flat, pale coloring, lack of contrast, skinny fonts. All UI changes that are on the way and started with iOS7.

I noticed the skinny fonts in particular in iOS 7 ... the tip that I read was to go into /Settings/General/Accessibility/ and turn on 'Larger Text' and/or 'Bold Text'. It was an immediate help.

...now here's the interesting part:

Did this sometime later on a setup on an iPad, and found that the 'Bold' was _waaay_ too much. Apparently, in one of the iOS 7.xx updates, they quietly fixed the fonts to make them less skinny.

In any case, try the settings...it's free & easy to undo.
