70RTY Posted 23September, 2013 Report Share Posted 23September, 2013 Agree. My biggest gripe is how quickly my battery level now drops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tk111 Posted 23September, 2013 Report Share Posted 23September, 2013 I am getting used to most of the changes except for the Calendar. I used to be able to review the monthly meetings and appointments easily now I find myself switching between views.... Not sure the "it just works" Moto applies anymore.

Harvs11 Posted 23September, 2013 Report Share Posted 23September, 2013 After reading this and a few other iPhone / iOS 7 reports, it makes me feel better about sticking with iOS 6. It ain't broke, I'm not fixing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sydr Posted 23September, 2013 Report Share Posted 23September, 2013 I'm with you Wasser, my wife has the iphone and me the Samsung. I would never swap. Funny thing that, zackerly same with me and her. She 'loves' the iphone, to me my phone is just a tool that has to do stuff when and how I want to, and I want to decide what happens, not some geek in appleworld Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Posted 23September, 2013 Report Share Posted 23September, 2013 I've got a Blackberry as my work phone and an iphone as my personal phone. The Blackberry is a great tool for doing work stuff and has the abilty to cope with encripted data in emails that I need to have but it is a rubbish phone on the whole. As TK said I use an iphone as it did just work because the user interface was very good. 07 seems to have dropped the ball a little. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orion03 Posted 23September, 2013 Report Share Posted 23September, 2013 it's a conspiracy I tell you! Every update is design to break the old phone so that you feel the need to buy the new one. I found the update process and itunes to be an incredible pain... so my wife's iPhone is still on IOS 4..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ByronBayChris Posted 24September, 2013 Report Share Posted 24September, 2013 Samsung works for me most of the time. Has to be reset every week as it drops it's internet, and some apps just stop working, but at least it's not a 'walled garden' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustJames Posted 24September, 2013 Report Share Posted 24September, 2013 It *is* a conspiracy! JustKid (aged nearly 10) set about updating JustMrs's iPhone yesterday evening until I told him to cease and desist. I'm a big believer in keeping hardware running the software that it was launched with unless there are pressing reasons to update. Apparently if you're nearly 10 "Because everyone's doing it and it's really cool!" are pressing reasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GC9911 Posted 24September, 2013 Report Share Posted 24September, 2013 Updated the iPhone & pad to 7 & no issues at all, other than the grey background I like the whole update, maybe it's an air cooled - water cooled sort of thing ????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, maybe I need a GT3 to notice the difference, what am I saying? If the wife finds out about the GT3 thoughts I'm finished. Best hide a GT3 at work, no will know will they.

teknostar Posted 24September, 2013 Report Share Posted 24September, 2013 I am loving iOS7. Best upgrade ever. Its like having a new phone. No issues for me whatsoever, except getting used to the swipe in the other direction to delete msgs. Looking forward to my 5s arriving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norm Posted 28September, 2013 Report Share Posted 28September, 2013 I've updated my iPad and don't really the look of it. The icons, font and background look so much more basic. In terms of design and presentation I think they've gone backwards. The functionality seems ok. There are a few changes where you can see the tech heads at Apple got carried away. What I like about the iPad and iPhone is the simplicity of it. This was the driving force of Steve Jobs. Although he was a tech head he didn't behave like one. He was very much into design and ease of use. Sadly I feared this would happen now that he passed away, where design and use will take second place to technicality.. Just my 2 cents!

withers Posted 29September, 2013 Report Share Posted 29September, 2013 I'm using iOS7 on a 4S. No issues at all, although I do feel the battery may not be lasting as long as it was but I don't have a clear benchmark to prove this. The Control Centre function is superb, something they should have added a long time ago. As with all software updates, you need time to adjust to them. This goes with all SW. I hear it all the time at work! One of the reasons to upgrade the operating system is that many apps won't run on the older versions. You do end up 'stuck' in that sense if you don't move forward. I'm not updating my iPhone till it no longer works! I'm done with having latest and greatest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
