 iOS 7
So my iPhone updated to iOS today. What do my fellow iPhoners think of it? I'm still getting used to it but...I think I like it? It's different but visually appealing.

 Re: iOS 7
I like the new features/interface. The look/visual layout is a little cartoon-y for my tastes.

 Re: iOS 7
Overall, I'm enjoying iOS7 - - though some of the visual stuff is going to take some getting used to - - the font on some of the app titles is tiny and yet still has to be abbreviated compared to before.
Personally, I wouldn't install it on devices three years old, eg: I never updated my 3GS to iOS6.

 Re: iOS 7
That's EXACTLY what I told everyone in my family. (They all have iPhones, I have Android)
It looks EERILY similar to Android.

 Re: iOS 7
still got iOS 5 on my iPad and iOS 6 on my iPhone(3GS), but Ive got a new 5S arriving today that will have iOS 7 on it. I tend to update when the old OS finally stops working with newer apps.

 Re: iOS 7
Not criticizing. Just pointing out a fact. That Apple has used a lot of Android in this new design.

 Re: iOS 7
It's funny how Bradley says we are "inaccurate and misleading" in our criticism... yet every criticism he makes is inaccurate and misleading.

 Re: iOS 7
I'm an apple user for life but I will not deny that the samsung galaxy+android is a superior experience at the moment.

 Re: iOS 7
I have always loved the design and look of the iPhone, and this upgrade is probably the best I've seen it look...
But I can't stand the navigation on an iPhone. Just give me a fucking back button.

 Re: iOS 7
I've had the beta iOS 7 since June so I'm kinda over it at this point, but it is a nice upgrade. Fresh look, but same 'ol functionality. It's still missing a lot of key features. It does borrow some elements from Android and other operating systems, but they did it in a very Apple way. And let's keep it real: they all pretty much copy each other at this point. Samsung announced their gold S4 within, what, 4 days of seeing the success of the gold iPhone 5s?

 Re: iOS 7
Isn't Samsung releasing a curved screen phone soon? I'm curious to see it.

 Re: iOS 7
I like the ios7 overall. It's a new look which makes things feel fresh for the time being. I like the color scheme and subtle changes that were made. I like the control center feature. Oh, I do like all the tabs in Safari now. The previous limitation was extreme. I'm trying to use Siri more since that's what it's there for. I like the new keyboard and phone buttons, but I would like to be able to customize them myself.
I don't like the volume graphic when I play videos because the bar is so small you can't be as precise as before now. I also don't like how when I get email or messages it has to do whatever tone I selected two times. That's annoying. I feel like the battery life goes down quicker though.
Also, I can't figure out how to remove some bookmarks that appear in Safari when you click on the address some web icons pop up for saved addresses but I can't figure out how to erase those.

 Re: iOS 7
Battery life is mediocre with iOS7, but damn it is way better than all previous apple mobile operating systems.

 Re: iOS 7
Anyone else find the new default music app obnoxious as hell? I don't want to have to skim through all my iTunes purchases as if they're downloaded on the phone just to get to the music that actually is on my phone. Also turning the phone sideways when using the app yields the dumbest thing I've ever seen.

Apple best fix the music app pronto.
