I do like the settings options incorporated into the control centre. Siri correction sounds like a good idea, but that's too much work. Simplicity from the user's perspective should be the main focus.

Well, I liked the Siri spell and pronunciation part a lot. That's pretty cool.

I could do that with my jailbroken 7.0.4 iphone 5s

They're doing this so apple can see from many websites dedicated to them in case it's a good idea or not.

I doubt that very much. They already have their design and nothing posted on these cheesy websites is of any importance to them.

Icons with the radius, black and white look, and transparency look aren't that good, control center is perfect and so is the scroll down to search, the Siri one is alright, and the gesture to open app, pass on that.
