Ios 7 finally got stable and is finally IMO a really nice operating system. And in less than two months we are going to be introduced to a new operating system. I feel like it just got here. I'm all for change when it comes to technology but it almost makes me believe it'll most likely be something like .x update to ios 7. Anyone else feel this way?

I think iOS 8 will just be a more modified version of iOS 7. New features, new dev options, maybe a slightly different skin.

I agree. I don't think there'll be anything too major besides Healthbook and Map improvements, but I think they'll put a lot of effort into refining it even more.

iOS 8 will most likely be iOS 7.2, a couple of new features, some icon changes, maybe a different dock, a more translucent one. Faster animations, changes in notification center and in control center to make them better.

I do really like ios 7 but I guess I'm just expecting to much. I can't even imagine what the new sexy kick ass feature will be. Ios 7 added I radio and a whole different looking interface and my favorite the control center but what should we expect this year? Health book doesn't get me giddy at all

I for one would be really excited if one of the new features that was integrated was a swype keyboard or something like it. That's one of two things I like on an android device. That and a led notification light. Both probably will not happen any time soon but it's nice to dream

iOS 8 is the next iOS 6, it will barely change anything but it will be more stable.
