Leaked screenshots allegedly of iOS 8 reveal new Preview, TextEdit, and Healthbook apps. The screenshots were posted to Sina Weibo and spotted by 9to5Mac.

"Even though the source of the images is absolutely uncertain, I have confirmed with several sources that these shots are legitimate," said Mark Gurman.

Apple is said to be working on Preview and TextEdit applications for iOS that will make it easy to view files stored in iCloud. The apps apparently aren't designed for editing files. They're early in development but could be ready to ship with iOS 8.

Healthbook has been previously rumored as an app that will be used to monitor and store fitness statistics including steps taken, calories burned, and miles walked. More details on Healthbook here.

No word yet on what the Tips app might be.

Cheapass flat as pancake icons STILL look like k-mart examples compared to how beautiful they were in IOS 6!

The old pimple 3d eye popping iOS 6 icons were the same old school look for so long, finally a neon new contrast colorful looking iOS 7 finally makes it look new.

I didn't, plus it's what the article says that mind controls them, what's worse it that some here think galaxy is taking lead and they believe that myth.

I Hear Ya K! For someone to think that Galaxy can even compete w/ iphone on a global stage is well, misinformed. It's ANDROID that is up against iOS.. Let's put this into perspective. Android is used on Samsung, HTC, Google, Huweii, Motorola, ect.... iOS is used on....... iPhone.. 1 phone from 1 company is in battle with 1-15 phones from EACH company.... That's like a 1 man army up against Russia in Crimea, I dont have to do the math to tell you that if iphone is keeping up, even beating android in ANY area..... then… #APPLENATION

Remember in movies how it's one against many, think of marvel for example. Anyway, android was chosen to run on many phones becauseno other phone maker could make their own os and that one was the easiest to implement.

gamerscul9870 - March 14, 2014 at 8:48pm

Marvel example- black widow against those guys in iron man. Now that's power.

Really!!! this isn't news, ios 8 looks exactly like IOS 7? even the new icons are copied from a mac

gamerscul9870 - March 13, 2014 at 10:59pm

We don't know yet but saying iOS 8 is like saying windows 8 is the same as 7. Not to say iOS is confusing and all but it's how each os looks and what new features is has. Maybe some tweaks we also have may be on iOS 8. Many can only hope.

I wonder what the CLOCK app does.... I already have a watch on my wrist.

gamerscul9870 - March 13, 2014 at 9:34pm

Shows the OVERVIEW of the world clock like no other, besides what if it breaks?

Why are all the companies focusing on these health apps

gamerscul9870 - March 13, 2014 at 8:18pm

Some other than apple are following them to try and be better and apple is making a simply way to help people lose or gain weight and let's them know when something bad will happen such ass when you'll die and what you can do to stop it for example.

HuDuToo - March 13, 2014 at 4:29pm

Don't know that I believe this one. The Preview and TextEdit icons are old OS X versions. I hope it's ultimately true, though. Would like to have both those apps on iOS.

mavrik101 - March 13, 2014 at 4:23pm

OMG - nice additions - but Ives forgot to re-do the icons... those icons are so OSX.

gamerscul9870 - March 13, 2014 at 4:26pm

Nice prediction but you forgot to realize he just did for people wanting new. Follow K's idea if you want the old icons since he wants his idea to work. I find that a good idea.

AppleGuy299 - March 13, 2014 at 4:17pm

I could make that my iphone look like that pretty easy. You only have to use Apple's "iPhone Configuration Utility" to me an app icon. You could jailbreak it and change the app version in the version property list.

Sahweet - March 13, 2014 at 4:10pm

Preview app is most likely an app that would give OSX-like previews but if they make it so that you can preview it by just looking at it long enough (camera's dude), then that would be sahweet as hell!

John - March 13, 2014 at 3:53pm

It can't be real - apple are still waiting for developers to update their apps with iOS 7 support and icons - health book looks badly made (the icon) and so does the preview and textedit apps - look too much like mac - don't be fooled (they don't even know the source!!!)

gamerscul9870 - March 13, 2014 at 3:55pm

Don't be fooled? It's just icons, but what can they possible not know about, besides the icons are goodly made. It has neon textures.

John - March 14, 2014 at 8:19pm

Not the Preview and TextEdit - they're copies of the old version of the Mac OS X

gamerscul9870 - March 13, 2014 at 3:48pm

It would be even better if it came with old icons and their built in app designs along with the old Siri mic tat many still miss.

Peter - March 13, 2014 at 3:48pm

Don't let the icons fool you...Obviously if they are real leaked screen shots, those are in-house testing 'placeholder' icons, so as not to reveal the actual icons that will ship with the software.

sunilshivnani - March 13, 2014 at 4:37pm

You have a point. But somewhere we know that these images, if legitimate, should be coming from internal development team, then what is the harm in sharing the real Icons with developers who already have complete App. I mean they can open these apps and see complete UI and functioning, then why not see real icons?
