Just wondering if anyone is happy with iOS7 on their iPad? I think it's fine on my phone. Have been holding off updating the iPad.
 
I have it on my iPad 4, and its fine. I ran into some lag on the wallpaper change, and did a reset. Its better now, so I guess that fixed it.

A co-worker has it on his 3, and he said its just "ok". Then again, I nicknamed him "Yabut". No matter how good something is, or works his first comment is "Ya, but...". So I take whatever he says with a grain of salt.
 
Hated it on my iPad Mini, especially the chunky block of the dock! Went back to 6.1.3 and am thrilled I did. Will not be updating the iPad 3 and won't be getting the new models coming out because of iOS 7.

There is no right or wrong here. It is strictly a matter of personal taste ... beauty is in the eye of the beholder!
 
I'm loving it on my ipad. Not gonna update my phone though but for ipad I think it looks great. I feel the lag still with the wallpaper change but no biggie for me.
 
I like it for the most part on my iPad 3, but did have to tweak a few accessibility options to make certain things more easy on the eyes. Also decided to ditch the native calendar and notes apps - not a fan of the new visuals on those. Otherwise I'm really happy with the rest of the changes.
 
I do think it works nicely on an iPad2 though I do find a little lag. I turned off the parallax scrolling of the wallpaper since, with the iPad2 I reckoned the processor was struggling with the eye candy.

One feature that I like in iOS7 is the "just type into the url bar" on the browser when you want to search for stuff. Moving from two entry fields to one is great. I do find the moved Bookmarks button harder to get used to though. I keep tapping Share instead.
 
I am happy with it on my iPad 4. It's not perfect, but it's not nearly as bad on mine as some are reporting.
 
My iPad 3 chugs along nicely with iOS 7. Though I can report some instances of lag.
 
No complains here on my iPad Mini. I made the font bold though.

I haven't updated my iPhone yet.
 
iPad 3 Feels completely unusable, because there's graphic bugs and laggy animations and crashes and non responsiveness in a way that I've never seen before on an iOS device..it's a mess!
 
Installed on iPad2 and iPad3 last night. They both work great, no lag or problems whatsoever.

Still trying really hard to like the new look, but I'll give it time before passing judgement.
 
Hum... looks like a lot of positive responses. Lagging is one of the main problems that I read before. I'm going to miss the current style of the calendar. Hopefully they bring back that style with a new long. As others have mentioned in other threads, I like being able to look at the month and see what is going on each day without clicking on that day or turning it on it's side.
 
Not happy on ipad 4, there are lags and the OS is not optimized for the ipad, I think (3x3 apps in a folder is a joke ...)
