There are a few cases of genuine sloppy UI in iOS 7, but this site does a horrible job of pointing it out.

http://sloppyui.tumblr.com/post/61658685474 This is the most outrageous. Apparently this mid-transistion screenshot demonstrates something poor. What? I have no idea. Is it sloppy in the same way this http://i.imgur.com/e5Vyv5z.jpg is sloppy?

Why is the textbox transparent? I haven't seen the actual transition in action, but it certainly looks sloppy this way.

I hadn't sent a message with my updated phone, just did to test this out. When you send a message it gets a colored talk bubble and then shifts up into position. During the shift the keyboard/text entry field stay on top. It doesn't last long, it would probably look cleaner if they'd made the talk bubble stay above the entry field (so that it doesn't get cut in half).

No, they keyboard and message box are clearly on a layer above the speech bubbles. There is nothing wrong with this behaviour.

See, I'm inclined to call it sloppy, this would look nicer if it wasn't sloppy, the screenshot shows a state that makes no sense to a normal user.

However, if this is actually happening in some transition, then leave it. We all know that there are only so many hours. Bring some polish to this transition with a future update. I can't see dinging them on design for a slightly sloppy transition.

Here's a video of the animation http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5zNvFR7Mgxk&t=30s

IMHO, this is the opposite of sloppy.

Theres nothing sloppy about this transition it makes sense.

They did have a nicer one in beta 1 though where the message came up under the keyboard blurred
