Now you can change Tappable iOS 7 Arrows Back Into Shaded Buttons
Do you like this story?
The completely redesigned interface of iOS 7 meant a lot of users lost some familiar, and legitimately useful, navigational elements. Now, with Apple’s recent iOS 7.1 update, you can at least get back one of them: button shapes.
In the menus on iOS, the default is for buttons to be text-only, with a “<" indicating that you can tap there to navigate up a level in the Settings (these text-only buttons are also very evident in the Calendar app). For many, however, this text-only design made it harder to determine not just what was tappable, but where to actually tap. If you fall in that category -- or you're just nostalgic for some of iOS's old design elements -- just go to Settings > General > Accessibility and toggle on “Button Shapes.”
Now, the text buttons within the Settings menu are surrounded by a larger shaded arrow shape. Other text buttons are also filled and surrounded by a darker colored rounded rectangle.
Personally, I don’t like the look of the buttons option as much as the plain text scheme, but it certainly makes clickable buttons more apparent in the OS.
