Still haven't done 6, takes way too long and too frustrating, my phone never synchs back properly once I have updated.

Does it help improve battery life, or do you need the new model?

It seems to me every-time one of these iOS overhauls occur, battery life gets worse, much worse. I never updated my iPod Touch 2g to 4.0.... whatever it was. So, I'm not sure if my iPad 2g or Touch 4g will be upgraded, I'll wait; I'll probably upgard for the Touch 5g and iPad 3g though.

I updated my Ipad 4 yesterday, and I'm very pleased. My brother updated his iPhone 5 as well as his ipad and could not be happier. It's like getting a new device.

but i don't WANT a new device smile (I curretnly have iPhone 5 and iPad mini with the latest 6.x.whateverversion) I'm sure I'd miss the old optics... sure one will get used to everything after a while, but so far I didn't like anything from the previews

and I don't know about any new functionalities in iOS7 that are must-have


so for teh time I'll wait and look what you and others have to say

Having played with it all morning, (I'm using it now) I must say that everything seems to be running allot smoother than before. I have the Ipad 4 retina, and things just look a little brighter and seemed to be fully optimized, that they before. Battery life, does not seem to be an issue. I will keep an eye on it though.

Got ios7 on my ipad mini and loving it!
Refreshing change after iOS has basically looked the same for 6 years.
.
Can't stop looking at the 3d wallpaper haha!
.
I was concerned it might slow down the ipad, but it seems just as smooth as ios6.
.
Love my ipad mini and am so glad I chose the smaller one, it's so slim and light, it's just right wink
Music, sweet music, I wish I could caress and...kiss, kiss...

why does she keep asking the same damn question? confused

Thank you missfee, I didn't see your response. lol I need to know because the last time I did an update, I walked away for a couple of hours and my iPod was still updating. Everything was gone... it took a couple of days to get my stuff back.

I love it. The dimensions are absolutely perfect - so easy to slip it into my purse.

And font sizes are something you can adjust - so that is never a worry, really.


The one negative thing I will say is that I don't care for it as a reader. The screen is too reflective to do long-term reading. I still use my non-backlit, matte screen nook for that unless I'm going to be someplace dark where I need a backlit screen (e.g. while I'm backstage killing time waiting to go on again). In that case, the reflectivity of the screen is not an issue because nothing reflects in the dark.

It might grow on me, but my first impression is that I don't like how it looks. It looks cheaper and the colors are too bright. And where there are not bright colors there are no colors. We'll see...

Don't choose the password option, its a pain, i was tired of punching in my code after 3 minutes . The icon / folders look like those sticky things Junior high school girly girls put on their folders / notebooks .lol The interface is brighter and I can see the icons much better, I'm getting use to it. I like the fact the apps can be organized on different pages within a folder. For the most part i like the radio interface, most of the permanent radio stations with exception of the Jazz, i'll never listen too.

Apple should have consider allowing you to creat you own station without their choices above, as Pandora does.

there's really no point, unless you want your shit to look slightly different.

Also, once I upgraded my phone, I couldn't hook it up to the computer until I upgraded iTunes, too.
