But has it? The most common apps that I see people interact with are Facebook, WhatsApp & variations thereof and Apple's own apps, and they all look a lot "more native", i.e. like UIKit with very superficial appearance tweaking. (Even though FB seems to use a custom nav bar, the swipe-to-go-back gesture of iOS6 is broken).

I wish we had public app usage data... I really suspect that the average iOS screen looks a lot more old-fashioned than the average HN front-page app does.
