I love it, two weeks ago I nearly changed to android and I'm glad I didn't, feels like I have a new phone! However I'm 26...My mum on the other hand is 54 and hates it and I can kind of see why it might not appeal to the more mature user!

You can remove the control centre from the lock screen in settings so I'm guessing that will stop the security flaws.

Just looked at my phone as the settings didn't say that an update was waiting , it hadn't told me so as IOS7 requires "2.9Gb free space" i had 1.7gb . Why does it need 2.9gb when it is only 665mb ?
I have had to delete all my photos to get it installed , sod the security issues !

Few things I don't like are the calendar as it's just difficult to read and the use of the American term 'trash' rather than good old delete, some is a bit change for change sake and as a friend says 'looks a bit fisher price'


....That was my criticism too but then I discovered that you can change the Settings > General > Text Size.

And also, Settings > General > Accessibility > Bold Text.

Now I'm finding the whole of Calendar much better than in iOS 6.

Yes I have noticed that it has slowed my phone down too...  But i think this is because i have a 4 and not the 4S.
Does anyone know if it is possible to go back to the previous OS as i really wish i hadn't upgraded it now.

You can't. I suspect they did it so you go out and upgrade to a shiny new one...

I have noticed the ipad mini battery is substantially reduced with ios7, even after tinkering with settings.

If you restore your phone through iTunes, would it not revert back to OS6 ?

No... youd need to download a copy of the ISPW file for ios6 and restore it from that ( i think)
