Anyone seem to be having bugs that the majority are not having? Most of my family has IOS 7 on 5s, 4S, 4, iPads, etc. No one but me has this bug:

On my 5, about 1 out of 15 times, after I have left an app to the home screen, swiping to the left to get to the second home page will activate the spotlight search. Restored as new, etc. same thing. No one else I have talked to or seen has had this issue. Strange. Hardware related?

If you swipe with an up/down motion, or a more diagonal motion, you'll activate spotlight. I'm going to guess you're swiping with somewhat diagonal motion, even if unintentional.

It would seem that way but that's not what's happening. Swiping perfectly horizontal as it's happened while trying to recreate the glitch, so I was being very accurate.

Just upgraded my iPad Mini to 7.0.3 - I'm noticing that the black keyboard, when pulling down Spotlight, does not have transparency. Is this a bug, or intentional? If done on purpose, I'm guessing it's because of the keyboard lagging.

Here's what I'm talking about. Everything's fine across the entire UI except for Spotlight.

Perfectly ok. If you think about it, on some backgrounds, a translucent keyboard would not necessarily be the most legible. This would no doubt give rise to yet another load of moans such as "I can't see my keyboard clearly!" :)
