Just that really - I have an iPhone 5 & have heard such mixed reviews about iOS 7, so not sure if I should download it!!

I hate it. The apps look wrong, the whole thing is very childish.

No idea about how it improves operating system or anything...

I'm waiting another few weeks.

Ok thanks for replying to me! Might give it a miss then. Grin

I've had it through all the pre releases. It's brilliant, different, but brilliant.

DH has downloaded it so I'm going to acquire his iPad over the weekend and try it out.

I quite like it, the bottom and top blinds are quite useful and compatable with Week Cal which is what matters to be. (Week Cal is a cakander ap that lets you colour code everything, which is very useful with the DDs leading comolicated lives)

I also like the new reminders.

browser lay out is nice too.

Too much white and a horrid key board font.

Fucking kindle, iOS 7 is a 1000x better than this shiting, spell check losing thing.

I find the keyboard crap - seems slow and unresponsive and often misses out letters or inserts the wrong one. Have to keep going back and editing everything.
Agree it looks childish and I also don't like the calendar; seems to take ages to use it now.

No one likes the new built in calendar.

I'd wait. Mines not letting my iMessages go through. Thankfully I get unlimited texts bit I thought there was problem with my phone till I discovered it is a problem with iOS.
Also don't like the calendar..
Or where the search bar is for Internet..
Or the photo apps bit..

I'm used to the plaskool effect buttons now through..

I've found it to be unresponsive, not sure I like the new look.
Also for some users iMessage isn't working properly - dh has been sending messages in the day while at work but I didn't receive them. Apple are releasing a patch soon to fix it so I would wait until they have resolved all the issues first!

Definitely going to wait then - thanks all!
