It's because Apple didn't update the iTunes website properly. Your icon will be shown without the gloss on a device.

https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/paper-stories-from-facebook/id794163692?mt=8 Here is an example for this glitch. New apps should not get the glossy effect - it's against the design guidelines of iOS 7. – Tamás Sengel Mar 11 '14 at 22:33

my app support iOS 6 + , and icons shown on the device or simulator are without gloss. I think it will be fixed by Apple someday or with my new update ) – Igor Prusyazhnyuk Mar 11 '14 at 23:34

SuperFace, I've visited the example app link you've provided. Surprisingly, it doesn't have the gloss effect in iTunes preview, maybe they got it fixed or something. Interesting. – spybart Mar 25 '14 at 01:23

1My apps are still incorrectly showing the gloss effect. I guess I have no choice but to contact the monkeys over at Apple. – spybart Mar 25 '14 at 22:17

Apple has fixed the issue of glossy overlays showing up in iTunes preview. For the change to take effect, you simple have to submit an update to your app, once the update is approved, it will be fixed on iTunes preview.
