Welcome to #329: A note from the editor

Hey readers! It’s been a big week. The biggest of the year, arguably, for iPhone fans. That’s because Apple’s Worldwide Developer’s Conference (WWDC) has just wrapped up for another year, bringing with it the biggest and boldest iOS shakeup for more than a decade.

We’ve got coverage of everything Apple announced for iPhone and iPad in the News section this issue, plus a look at this year’s amazing Apple Design Award winners. In the Features section, lead writer Craig Grannell explains why he’s not a fan of Apple’s new look – and in the How-To section, we explain how to turn off the new aesthetics if you agree.

This issue is also home to some spectacular features and roundups that are at risk of being overlooked thanks to all the WWDC. So don’t forget to read our bumper guide to the best minimalist apps for iPhone and our Great Outdoors Toolkit that shows you the apps and gear you’ll need for a big hike or camping trip.

All that and more in this action-packed Swipe issue!
