The update, which also includes bug fixes, will likely be patched by Apple shortly.

Regression!
As someone who has flown to Africa numerous times to try and find his lost iPhone, only to find out it was between the couch cushions the whole time, I welcome the new icon.
What is the point of high pixel density if you are going to turn everything into flat filled shapes and remove detail?
I am not saying I was a fan of making everything look like desktop notepads and felt lined tables, but I'm also not a fan of Microsoft's Metro look that uses 4 colors and boxes to represent a "modern" UI.
