iOS7: Not the first flat designed OS
Metro is our design language. We call it Metro because it’s modern
and clean. It’s fast and in motion. It’s about content and typography.
And it’s entirely authentic.

If using a fully custom iOS 6 UI, then
Apple have intentionally designed iOS7
to support your app.
