![]() Just putting that in a white rounded rectangle would be self-evident and look good, I think. I think the "digital planet" concept is evocative, and it works nicely as a flat version as well. I agree that the globe motif is the most associative - the Nexus browser has my favorite. You can keep calling it Safari on Windows, and the OS X desktop if you like, but the name just adds complexity, raising unnecessary questions. It would be much more in keeping for it to be labelled "Browser" or even "Webpages". It doesn't tell the user that this is how you use the World Wide Web. So I think that seeing a compass icon called "Safari" presumes a degree of product awareness that goes against the rest of Apple's OS design. The compass motif is a bad choice because your device also has map and navigation functionality, as well as a dedicated Compass app. I would have been thinking more jungle vines and animals or something. The idea of going somewhere, OK maybe, but it isn't represented in the icon unless you want to stress the importance of a compass when on walkabout. There is nothing "Safari" about Safari's icon, or indeed the app at all. iTunes has a big musical note on the icon, but I've never thought that the App Store & Game Center icons were particularly great - although the GC icon was somewhat representative before, it's definitely got worse. I wouldn't expect iTunes to go anywhere but otherwise their properties are named simply and descriptively: "App Store" and "Game Center". iChat has gone (although FaceTime is still a brand) as has iMessage - it's just Messages now. The simplicity and minimalism of Apple's design approach covers their naming and they are not afraid of retiring branded products. Looking at the app icons together you can see that they are mostly unbranded and functionally named, such as "Maps" & "Stocks". I increasingly think that the presentation of Safari is all wrong on iOS. This subreddit is not endorsed or sponsored by Apple Inc. If you'd like to view their content together, click here.
