Some of the changes Apple squeezes in to an iOS update patch dangerous
security flaws. Others address usability problems. And some… well, some
make fruit look like a pair of buttocks.
You can breathe a sigh of relief, iPhone-carrying peach emoji spammers, because Apple has decided to backpedal on a major revamping of their recently-redone design. In iOS 10.2 beta 1, the gang in Cupertino decided to spin the peach around slightly, moving the “cleftal horizon” (for all you IT Crowd fans) to the side.
It was a dramatic change. Did it still look like a peach? Absolutely. But let’s face it… nobody has been using that emoji to, say, suggest that their mom bake a peach pie for dessert or ask a co-worker to grab a Peach Pleasure from Jamba Juice on the afternoon smoothie run.
That might explain why they decided to redesign the redesign. As you can see, the peach emoji that Apple slipped in to iOS 10.2 beta 3 pretty much looks like a recolored version of the glorious, unsubtle kiesterfruit that it was in iOS 10.
Really, about the only way to make the new peach look more like a butt would be to have it peeking over the waistband of a pair of tiny blue jeans. Maybe Apple’s saving that for the next beta build of iOS 10.2.
What else is arriving along with the new peach? A prince to go with the princess, a ROFL emoji, and a whole produce section worth of other new fruits and veggies
