Apple’s vision of multitasking is a little less refined than many users would have hoped, something Samsung has harped on in its latest attack adBill Labus has a simple solution: combine the multitasking view with the newly implemented Control Center. This iOS 8 concept design would eliminate the need for double tapping the Home button to quickly navigate to or close active applications. Mission Control, as Labus calls it, “allows the multitasking app views to be tied directly to the gesture,” simplifying the process and avoiding unnecessary passive animations. It would also pare down the abundance of features in the Control Center, many of which Labus rarely finds himself using. Check out a short clip of Mission Control in action below.
