According to 9to5Mac, the hidden settings are "not readily available" to iOS 7 beta users, but requires some "unspecified tweaking."

"Notably, Apple is testing system-wide edge-swipe and corner-swipe gestures for iOS 7, wrote Mark Gurman. "These gestures would bolster the already present edge-swipe feature in iOS 7 for Messages, Safari, and a couple of the other pre-installed iOS apps. According to these settings, Apple's testing of these gestures would expand to being used for quick-app-switching."

Found within the hidden settings are the ability to hide the pre-installed apps, creating a folder within a folder, and alterations to blur and color effects.

By visiting Apple's Developer page, people can download iOS 7 beta as long as they have an iOS developer account, which cost $99 per year through Apple. The iOS 7 beta is prone to potential bugs and crashes since it is still in its early stages, which is why Apple promotes the beta version, to avoid such occurrences ahead of its full launch.
