Apps updated for iOS 7

I don't understand what iOS 7 compatibility exactly means. I have a feeling that they're not built with the iOS 7 SDK (because of the keyboard).
Yes, we should be distinguishing from
a) apps coincidentally updating around iOS 7 release date
b) apps updating so they don't crash on iOS 7 (many of the examples above)
c) apps updated using the iOS 7 SDK that actually make use of new iOS 7 features.

Just means that they shouldn't crash or wreak havoc when running on iOS 7. Apps using the iOS 7 SDK won't start appearing until after iOS 7 has been released. So tomorrow afternoon, we should start seeing a flood of apps that are using the new SDK.
Are you sure about this? What about the latest updates for apps like Wikipanion and AroundMe?
they have been allowing these apps to be released since the GM became available. not only beginning tomorrow. the point of the GM to developers is to test apps and make sure they are ready for the public release.
It's possible that Apple has let a few slip out to stagger the load, but they won't be releasing the vast majority of apps that use the new SDK until after iOS is released tomorrow. After all, why release apps using new features that almost your entire customer base can't use yet?
i just hope that facebook, instagram, and twitter get update either today or tomorrow to work with iOS 7 and some sort of new design 
Huh? Are you talking about third party apps? After they are accepted, up to developers whether or not their iOS 7-SDK apps are released right away or on the 18th. Apple isn't waiting to accept them til the release.
Ok. Then it appears that the developers are waiting for the 18th, because hardly anything using the iOS 7 SDK has hit the App Store as of today.
If any of you play our game, FIELDS OF BATTLE (it's a paintball game) it'll be updated with iOS 7 fixes either tonight or tomorrow. It's approved by Apple, but we're just doing a last round of testing before hitting the option to drop the update.
Contains iOS7 fixes and some other little bug fixes.
Apple is on a roll, honestly. We submitted it Friday, and it was approved yesterday. So they're moving fast on that stuff due to the iOS 7 release and wanting, most likely, the best user experience with their favorite apps and not wanting to have developers say "you have to wait for apple".

i have a feeling a lot of apple apps wont be updated to the iOS 7 design till mavericks is released. the only ones that might get upgraded now could be find my phone, find my friends, apple store. those ones we have seen demos for the new design and screenshots from various places showing new icons, design.

I been using it on iOS 7 today... Yea it works but there is little to no change in the look and style app as before. It seems to be running fine though... But it seemed to run fine on iOS 7 before the update.
