Anyone happy with iOS7 on their iPad?

Anyone using a smart cover? I read in another thread that it's not working with it.
 
Doesn't look good on iPad to me. WAY too much white, and wasted space (Safari top bar) which I imagine could be a problem on iPhone, too. Haven't put 7 on the iphone... put 7 on the iPad 3 and went back to 6 an hour later.

Also, I just can't get past the iconography. They're awful. Waiting for 7.1.
 
On my Retina (3) iPad, big battery drain after install but seems better after going through the settings and turning off a lot of new stuff I never use! For my type of use..iOS7 could have been avoided..but...there is that being left behind thing that forced the update being installed. Don't like the new kook of Safari and icons...so to answer your question...no, but prepared to accept new and get more familiar with it.
 
I actually like it better on my iPad than my iPhone. I think the icons are relatively too big on the phone but look fine on the iPad

YOu mind sharing your tweaks you did? SO far i have just turned off Parallax!:eek:

Really like it on all my devices.. some lag here and there.. buts all good...
 
I find IOS7 nice on the iPhone (5) and just ok(ish) on my iPad 3: too many lags here and there, seems not "fine tuned" enough for the iPad overall.
 
Yes! Love it on the 3. Buttery smooth and looks fantastic. Since my 3 is wifi only, I'm not sure what features I'm missing so I can't comment on that.

Want to do it on my 2 also but it's JB'd and I don't want to lose that JB b/c I use the screen recorder very often. Though I do wonder how fast or slow it would be on the 2 (also wifi only)...

Only thing I severely dislike is the 3x3 folder icon layout and all that wasted real estate. :mad:
 
I am not as impressed with the iPad iOS. There's definitely some lag with certain functions and a lot of wasted space. It just doesn't seem finished to me which is such a shame b/c I have been enjoying it so much on my phone.
 
Some say "buttery smooth" : can you, for example, on iPad 3 or 4, open the app store and do the rotation or close the app store with the 4 fingers? Is it smooth?
 
I sacrificed my jailbroken iPad mini to update to iOS 7 and I'm more than happy. Here are some plus and minus:

+Safari - I now hardly open links in new tab, swipe left to right and the previous page is right there, no reloading

+NC and CS everywhere (one reason why I was jailbroken)

+swipe left to right to go back in some apps (needed a jawbreaker tweak before)

+++ love the overall design

-slow to rotate, bring up CS, and spotlight

-that's all I can think of at the moment
 
Just put it on my mini. Loaded quickly and is very snappy. So far no problems. :p

I was, more or less, during the beta. But I have had a hell of a time with iCloud on the public release. It's being a huge pill to download my apps etc.

I would say wait a few more days before upgrading
 
I liked some things...and I disliked some of the design decisions they made (too much of the blinding whites).

I would have kept it on my iPad, but because of a little lag here and there, I downgraded the OS.
 
It loaded much more easily on my iPad 4 than it did on my iPhone 4s, but that may be due to the fact that I put it on the iPhone on Wednesday.

I've had no problems with it on my iPad and like it quite a lot.
 
After reading the reviews here last night and saw that they were mostly positive, I installed iOS7 on my iPad 4. No issues, no complains and the calendar works like the old version. Was very happy to see that!

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 ...)

It runs really well on the iPhone 5. I can attest that it appears to be not that well optimized for the iPads.
