iOS7
« on: June 11, 2013, 08:23:57 am »
http://www.apple.com/ios/ios7/

What are other iPhone users thoughts? I have mixed feelings on this one but really looking forward to some of the features!

Airdrop looks great as does the new notification centre. iCloud keychain is also a great little idea, enter a wifi password on my laptop and it will allow my iphone to connect to the same hotspot without having to reenter the password!

Looks great to me. Cant wait for release. Share prices drop because people expect too much. Why would Apple let all of their announcements out of the basket in one Keynote, they do have the rest of the year.

Looks like a step (or few) closer to the android OS.

Yes, that doesnt surprise you thought does it? Battery life and hardware specs are important for things like multitasking. It saves users with low spec phones getting a sub standard experience with a more up to date O/S.

Also, Apple will hopefully bring their trade in system over here once it is implemented.

Nope, doesnt surprise me at all, as things progress i knew in time my phone would not be able to keep it, it barely can now. I know from your previous posts that you are an apple/gadget fan, i can barely use iTunes  :signLOL:

I like having my simonly deal at the moment, but to upgrade means new contracts, larger monthly payment or buying handset outright. Oh well retro i may stay for now.   :P

i like the look in some ways but think its a bit too basic in others. the control centre looks too basic to me but brings good functionality that you have otherwise needed a jailbreak to have previously.

Im currently downloading a beta version to install so will see how it goes.

Love the ios in the car that will be rolled out in 2014 so you can sync it with car headunits properly.

I'll be going on to this when I get back from holiday. From watching the keynote and reading up on it I quite like the look of it and its features. Nothing that could be classed as a killer feature but still looks like a good update.

Im using it now, and really like it. I do think the sharpness of it will take some getting used to.. but UI wise, its great
