1. Flat iOS
When the iOS 7 was released officially, many users found the familiar interface no longer exists. The design of iOS 7 is cleaner and simpler, with the use of motion and translucency effects. Icons look completely different while standard applications such as messaging and weather have been revamped. The new interface will apparently make users' devices feel bigger because it takes advantage of the whole screen.
2. Multitasking
Multitasking let users see full app previews of all their open apps, Apple has made it so users can see which apps are open in landscape mode too, and quit any of the apps simply by swiping them up.
3. Smarter Siri
Siri has been updated with new male and female voices and now includes Twitter, Wikipedia and Microsoft Bing searches. More importantly, Apple Inc. has promised they will improve the response speed of Siri. The answers will be from diversified sources too.
4. Improved battery life
Just like OSV Mavericks, iOS 7 has been reinvented, in order to achieve the ultimate goal of saving power.
5. New control center
A new control center is summoned by swiping from the bottom of the screen and allows users to easily access controls to airplane mode, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, do not disturb, brightness settings and music controls as well as apps like clock, camera, calculator and flashlight.
6. Intelligent notification center
A new notification center is now accessible from the lock screen, letting users easily glance information like weather, traffic, meetings and events.
7. Camera with filters
The camera app now offers filters. It is now possible to make audio calls over data networks using Face Time. There is also enhanced in-car integration, night mode for Apple Maps, automatic app updating and the ability to black certain people from contacting you by phone call.
8. Image app
Based on time and place, the pictures taken by iOS 7 will be in time order or event order. Then the pictures will be assembled in photo album.

AirDrop is a new feature that lets users easily share contacts with each other.

The music application has a new look and integrates iTunes Radio, a much-rumored music streaming service. It will feature more than 200 genre-focused stations that automatically adapt to your listening tastes.
