When Apple’s iOS 11 arrived Tuesday, the App Store got a major overhaul.
iOS 11, the latest version of the iPhone maker’s mobile operating system, is full of plenty of new features and long-anticipated upgrades. But the App Store changed even more – it got a complete redesign.
Apple Music users may notice something familiar about the new App Store. The new interface bears a striking resemblance to the Apple Music app, complete with a bold typeface and an emphasis on images.
Beyond the design, though, Apple made subtle changes to improve the experience of buying and downloading apps and games.
Here are all the changes to the App Store in iOS 11:
