IOS control centre is WAY better than anything android has ever come up with. I mean come on. goggle obviously had someone on the inside to get there control centre copy out like a month before apple launched it. only an idiot would use that CRAPPER of an os.
ANDROID copied everything from apple and the new ios RULES.
Android has had controls in the pull down notifications for 9 months now. That app was not developed by google its a third party app. Judging by your ignorance on the subject I can safely assume you have never used android to compare the notifications or control center.
If you really believe that iOS 7 looks and feels anything like Holo, which frankly, reminds me of user interfaces in the 90s, you're not using it.
I'm finding this quite funny, it will be interesting to see how many downloads this gets, especially considering how Android fans keep on talking down the iOS 7 makeover. ;-)
While it may have been updated and re-added toady, it's been out for a long time and is in the 1000-5000 installs range. That means it's not popular at all and hardly anyone uses it. As mentioned above, Android already has lots of these kinds of apps already. There are a prethora of the standard types that merge with the notification bar, widgets, and there's some traction with pie controls, but I wouldn't hold my breath for this app to take off.
This whole android and samsung thing is total embaressment for both companies and i have lost total respect for them. And now the other news is that Samsung is doping the S4 for benchmark tests.. Cheating to get better stats... Lowlife and embaressing. Bunch of thugs and crooks!
Since all of iOS7 is basically a copy of Android holo light I'd think Apple would tread carefully here.
I can only assume you haven't actually visually compared them. Either that or you are totally blind and Android holo light feels exactly the same on the screen as iOS7.
Android had loads of time to make the notification centre their own yet someone still has to copy.
As product categories mature, everybody adopts the better features of everybody else. There's a grey area between imitation being the sincerest form of flattery and outright copying, with everyone making their own decisions about which side any given feature falls. Of course sometimes you get some help in making those decisions from the other guy's lawyers.
of course I haven't used it. apple don't sell android so why would I use it. only an idiot would use it as it copy apple on every feature just because android have it a few days before when they rush it out after apple annonse it doesn't mean they invent it. apple invent it all and everyone copy them.

That feature has users swipe down from the top of the screen, whereupon they can access music, Bluetooth, screen rotation, and other controls. Samsung's version, though, is not accessible in all apps; full-screen games, for instance, do not show the pull-down bar for access. Apple's Control Center, though, appears accessible across all apps with the same swipe-up gesture
I tried this earlier on the womans GS3 and it was accessible in all apps. The bar is hidden until you make the motion at the top then it appears.
I put the original app on an S3 just to see what functionality it provided. Not much worked...it couldn't find my Bluetooth headphones, it gimped the camera app which just hung, vibrate was disabled, touch was (more)jerky. I junked it in less than half a day. Control Center in iOS7 is light years ahead. The original shrieked 'Apple', the new one not so much.
Looking at the download numbers it's clear that it's not what Android users prefer.
I always figured this was a joke app. I'm sure it works, but I looked at it as a "Hey, here's Apple's new control center but with more options and it's even customizable" type jab. Android users got a chuckle and proceeded not to use it. Hearing that the dev worked to get it back into the Play Store signals that he might actually care about the app. I'm surprised to learn that.
While the Android app looks better than the god awful looking iOS7 Control center which looks like a color factory exploded all over the screen, that's how I perceived the app as well. Notification Toggle (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.j4velin.notificationToggle) with over half a million downloads on the other hand is a superb app.
If Control Center is "ripped off" from Android, could someone explain to me why this app even exists? Is this what you Droid types think "ripped off" means? Android slavishly copies iOS and you are led to believe everything ripped off from iOS was actually first on Android?
Since Android is a stolen product, Google should police their store more effectively.
Both Apple and Google need to monitor the products they approve for their digital stores more effectively. Apple frequently approves applications that are blatantly infringing on Nintendo's rights or even outright stealing their art and sound assets.
Or anybody remember the fake Pokemon game that hit #2 in the App Store?

Should Apple and Google also start censoring Web links as well? And hey, why don't we use PRISM to just scan everyone who had pirated warez and block their internet access. All hail intellectual property. Let us all celebrate patents, copyrights, DMCA takedown requests, and corporate profits. Hip hip hooray!
I vote we extend copyright from ~100 years to 1,000 years too. God forbid someone rips a ROM from a 1986 game and distributes it in an emulator. Hoo-boy, better make sure those authors are still paid, if they're still alive.

Here is Android "Quick Settings" which is the equivalent of IOS Control Center. http://www.androidcentral.com/inside-android-42-notifications-and-quick-settings It is launched by swiping down with two fingers, and has been there since Jelly Bean launched.
