I love the Siri change, I think the one most are missing out on is the 'Darken Colours' option in Accessibility. It's made it so much nicer to look at across all the apps. Very happy with the snappiness. was a 214MB update OVA fgor me on my un-beta'd 5.
The only thing I'm a little unhappy about is that the Today View/Notifications pages seem to not use the Dynamic Text option anymore... It's made it feel big and unsightly (a little anyways).
I've just hammered a bunch of stuff and it's nice and stable for me... haven't seen any crashes yet, but it's early days.
I still get a little stutter when first using spotlight, but that's about it.
The only issue now will be updates from app developers to make apps load as snappy as the OS now feels.

Apple is slowly going to bring back various iOS 6 (and earlier) features in different updates and call them out as "new".
It amazing how many people feel this way. However, you never had to do that. Tapping on the wavy lines, made her stop listening, and start working on your query/command.
I don't like the Control Center jiggle on my iPhone 5s either, but we gotta take the good with the bad I guess. Welcome to the future of software as a service, as opposed to software as a product.
You can mitigate it by guiding the Control Center all the way up to its peak with your finger as opposed to summoning it with a small swipe and letting it come the rest of the way up by itself.
sorry should have stated: that is ios 7.0 autolock timeout: 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 minutes (or never).
in ios 7.0, passcode timeout has one option "immediately".
Im not sure why passcode and autolock have separate configurable timeouts. Seems they would follow eachother.
Is this the new "Safari is snappier!" ?
I've been running 7.1 for a while now, and there's honestly no tangible difference between 7.0 and 7.1 in my/my wife's testing. Placebo is a placebo. Sure, Apple says there's a difference, but then again DICE said they'd fixed the sound issues in Battlefield 4, too.
Agreed, but seems like they rushed out 7.0 rather than delaying it and getting it right, which probably affected all of this in 7.1 (along with probably some other things that they put into it). But, again, hopefully the longer time only means that it's (finally) that much more stable and better performing now.It should have been caught six months ago.

A lot of time Siri would stop me midway through. Very annoying! Can't wait to get home and upgrade after work.

Every time I tried the 5s features pages, I was able to get it to crash when I moved around and double tapped a few times.
Superb update. However is it just me or is anyone else experiencing laggy notification/control centre on the lock screen?
They are smooth everywhere else but are somewhat laggy on the lock screen. They were silky smooth in 7.0.6
I'm using an iPhone 5

Try restarting your phone, anytime I notice lag after an update that usually helps.
