iOS 7.1 change buttons

You can now also change the buttons in iOS 7.1 like so

You can do this from Settings > General > Accessibility > Button Shapes.

Turn it off while setting the wallpaper then pinch to unzoom it and hit save

Ooooh, now I see. But doing that will make you lose parallax?

I'm lovin it... No tabs have reloaded yet!

Just give a try to http://nin.com/ - try loading it in two tabs

Has anyone else noticed that control centre seems a lot more bright in this update? It makes the colours behind less distinguishable, and is one of the few new things I dislike.

Lolz, Ive's / Apple's "revolutionary" initial iOS7 approach (not using shapes) has fallen...

Does the phone app shows small or big pictures when somebody is calling?

Still small ones (like in betas) it seems: https://forums.macrumors.com/posts/18863773/

Don't think so, i have my wallpapers set that way and the icons still move around on the home screen a bit.

Same here - and iOS updates are still turning Bluetooth on even when it was off before. Apple please note, if I have BT turned off it's because I want it off, not because I forgot to turn it on

This is being going on for awhile for the benefit of having Ibeacon ready to go - but I am with you - I don't care for this feature.

You can now add entire albums and artists to playlists.

I will wait until i can jailbreak, my 5s only crashes 1 day max.

Yup, the 7.0.x crashing problems have certainly been exaggerated. While my rMini does crash somewhat more than one of my iPad3's running on the same 7.0.6 (and w/o JB), it's in no way unbearable.

Update is 200MB for me in Ireland - iPhone 5 on 7.0.6.

Edit: That's what the article said - IGNORE!

Don't any of you web browse? Guess not. Safari is worse than ever! geez!

As of iOS 7.1? In what way?

Bringing back more of pre-iOS 7 stuff slowly.

16 hours download time
Better than 32 hours it took me to get iOS 7...

Might be about time to drop that AOL dial up internet.

 

[SMIDG3T]

did somebody notice following on the iphone 5s:

when you press the sleep/home-button to activate the screen there is at first no "slide to unlock". it appears then after 3-5 seconds

Yes and this ISN'T new. If you disable Touch ID you'll notice the text will be there straight away. If you have Touch ID enabled, it does that.

Carplay does not work with 2014 nissian ... Damn.

Why do they still insist that you have to be connected to a wifi network to download these updates. It's a freaking mobile FFS. You should be able to use your mobile network. I have 4G with unlimited data and up to 50Mbps download speed. Why should I have to go into a coffee shop with free wifi just to update my iPhone. It's just plain stupid.

Hi,

On my iPad 3 the animation between home screen and all the open apps has disapeared. Also on the way back there is no animation anymore.

I don't know if this has mentioned before, haven't read all the 400+ messages here

As of iOS 7.1? In what way?

I got the iPhone 5 features web page to crash every single time just scrolling around and double tapping a few times.

Web pages reload constantly. Folks just go from one to another, if they try to do something in between forget it!

 

[gagaliya]

Not fixed. Opened about 5 web pages and tabs refreshed in Safari.

come on apple, are you serious?

applerobert - thanks for confirming.

The App Store Updates page is glitchy when clicking on an Update button for an app. Before there was a smooth transition to the circle, but now there's a weird swipe effect on the Update button that pauses for half a second before turning into the circle. Not something I would have shipped.

Do you have Parallax disabled? If so, that's the reason.

Thanks - what a stupid trigger for animations! I despise the Parallax so I'll live without the animations.

Why does every iOS7 'upgrade' make things worse?!

I no longer get upper or lowercase characters on my keyboards?! Just a different coloured 'shift' key. I have to keep pressing shift and then start typing to know whether Im getting caps or not. A very simple visual clue seems to have been taken away.

UPDATE: Actually I've just checked my brothers iPhone and it never did that haha. But it should of damn it!

Seriously Apple still can't delete message app cache I have over 1GB. It's all good tho Will wait for ios 8
