Fix the calendar!!!

What's wrong with the calendar? The UI kind of sucks, but it doesn't seem faulty.

That level issue IS a big deal though. My phone is off by 3 degrees, so the tilt games are basically unplayable. My wife's 5s is off by 1 degree. That is unacceptable, and is going to result in two returned iPhones if Apple doesn't fix that within a couple weeks.

That's the thing there is nothing wrong with the calendar it is just different and some people don't like it, so some assume and call it broken since it has changed just like the music sorting issues.

The level thing is a bug, that has been acknowledged and I would expect to see a fix for soon (although the question becomes will the fix be to just change the sensitivity and margin of error?) to make it read more level.

While there is nothing wrong with it or at lest perhaps nothing important, there are things that changed that decreased its usefulness for quite a few people that have used it in similar ways for years now. There's definitely something to be said for new desings and everything, but when some widely used features that aren't really all that complex or really weird to keep are removed which affects some basic flows of many users going years back, that's not really a positive move.

Of course that mostly affects those who lost something they used regularly or even sometimes. But, it's still a loss of something that was there for a long time and was useful. Maybe it's for some good particular reason, but it's hard to imagine what it would be aside from simply a redesign decision, which isn't that great (again primarily for many of those who lost something they used).

Apple don't hold back bugfix updates.

They will have a list of issues which must be addresses immediately, and as soon as it does that it will go to QA. As soon as they approve it, it'll ship.

QA typically is the thing that takes the longest for these kinds of fixes. They need to make sure their fixes didn't break anything else.

They won't just sit on things like the 5S accelerometer/gyro fix, crashing or BSOD issues while units keep getting returned, just so they can release it on some arbitrary day. That would be stupid.
 
It will be out in about 12 hours. I have no proof or inside information. I can just feel it. No that's a complete guess.

No, iTunes always gives you date for when it will check for another update. I believe it's a weekly schedule.

Sital is correct.

iTunes has ALWAYS given this kind of non-notification since at least the iPhone 3G days. The date means little, really, and certainly is not an indication of when the next update is due.

You can always check-for-updates manually, but iTunes will do so automatically on that date, if it's running.
 
SJ would have never allowed this BS to hit the public eye with this many errors. He would not have allowed Ives to make that stupid calendar.
 
i doubt an update will come this week, yes 7.0.3 was pushed to intern apple staff but they may just skip it and release 7.1 on the 22nd, I'm sure plenty of builds go through Apple intern that the public never see :)

Thats my thoughts on it, 22nd is the iPad event and i reckon 7.1 will push then (could possibly already be on the new iPads awaiting ship)
