The App Store has been updated - the structure of search results in iOS 6 beta is now fundamentally different. The changes affected both the iPhone and iPad. The "card" layout of search results has become a sharp tilt to the side and is completely different from the one in iOS 5, as you can see in the practical example in the video.
As you can see from the comparison in the photo below, a search in iOS 5 gives much more results per page than it was updated in iOS 6 beta. The only thing that can undoubtedly be called a change for the better is the large screenshot on the main search results page. This is an obvious change, but I'm not at all sure that many people would like to limit the number of results found in exchange for a large screenshot.
iOS 5 vs iOS 6 - App Store Search Results
On the iPad, things are a little better due to the much larger screen size, but here, too, the number of search results per page has been noticeably reduced.
All of this indicates that we can probably expect iOS 6 to be released soon, however, we must remember that this is still a beta, and therefore a lot may change between today's and final release. In part, I'm sure Apple will iron out all the speed and loading issues when it comes to search and its results.
What do you think about this new structure of search results in the App Store?
