Yes we don't have 6 fingers, but some ppl will use 4 fingers to close their apps and the 5th could be swiping somewhere.

Thanks ;) btw interesting if most of bugs will be fixed on 7.0.5 or 7.1 because now passed plenty time (iOS 7 GM released on September 10) and bugs amount increases day by day...
 
Do people at Apple use iPhones? You'd think this stuff wouldn't need to be reported. I'm sure fixing some of these bugs is not an easy process but come on.

Chances are a lot of these are known but are either of low enough priority to jot be fixed yet or perhaps have enough of a dependency or complexity to not be fixed in a point update so far.
 
A way to Downgrade

Well After Upgrading to iOS 7.0.4 My iPhone was missing signals it used to show no service ... For Unknown Reason.. i have downgraded my iOS to 7.0.2 As it was the best upgrade...
I Downgraded from this link .. If you guys having same problem try downgrading it to previous version.

Apple is still signing a previous version somehow, and not even the very last one but one before that?
 
Here's what happens when you have more than one page in a folder, close the folder, and immediately return to it.

That's just their version of multitasking. :rolleyes:

Quirky little bug with 7.0.3 where text can be cut/pasted/edited within the update description. Also apple support hyperlink doesn't work...

That's been like that since the first beta. I reported it way back this summer, and still no fix.

There are a lot of bugs which exist from first iOS 7 beta releases, reported almost every day only from my side, and still no reaction from Apple, really strange what is happening with their QC and software department.

Yeah, I wonder what they are up to. It doesn't make sense. I know people hear all the time "If Steve Jobs was there...", but really, if he was, there wouldn't be near this many bugs.

And, I want to jailbreak my phone, but I'm almost scared to do that until 7.2.

iOS 7 is a pretty major update. iOS 2 was, as well, and Steve was very much there at the announcement of the 2.1 update, quote, "fixes lots of bugs". Nobody's perfect. No software this complex, no matter how well-examined, will ever be completely bug-free, and no company, no matter how big, can change that fact. All they can do is keep trying to fix what they find, and if they find one that causes a major enough issue (such as security), they have to go out of their way to push out a release to fix just that one while they're still working on all the others. As a software engineer myself, I definitely prefer to fix lots of things before I push out a release, for the sake of not having to jump back in time. Despite this, I am still asked to put out little fires along the main branch before I finish the major list of fixes that I really want to finish.

I don't envy Apple in their task of having to push out fixes for security issues and things while there are still things like BSODs and major UI hangups going on. Must be driving them crazy.
 
Swiping left or right on home screens sometimes activates spotlight search. This has been there since beta.

That's completely understandable, and I don't envy them either, it's just a lot of these bugs have been here since the beginning, and I imagine they have tons of people working on this iOS. It just doesn't seem Apple to actually release something so unpolished several times in a row. I know they have released a few things that have been somewhat unpolished, but I don't remember anything this extensive. And the fact that the Mac OS was as well....I'm definitely not saying their job isn't hard or anything, but I'd rather have waited another month or two for Mavericks and iOS 7. Now, however, it's frustrating for the consumer, and I can imagine them as well. It's a no one win situation, unfortunately. But, I still like Apple and will stick with them through this. I have hope that next year won't be bad since, I imagine, they will just build on to iOS 7.

Another bug I've run across is that my music randomly stops in the middle of a song, but it keeps going as if it's playing. I discover new songs it does this with everyday. Fortunately, it seems to be consistent. What I mean is that if it happened to one song, then it happens to that song every time. Kind of weird.

Maybe you swipe down a little bit at the same time? It's a possibility, but I'm not saying it's not a bug. Try to be super touchy on swiping left and right and see what happens. Maybe the sensitivity is just too high. I'm only saying this because I haven't had that problem yet.
 
iPad Mini Retina - Stutter and Lag, worse than the iPad Air


Unfortunately, the iPad Mini Retina is stuttering and lagging more than the iPad Air and still has the animation delays that's noticeable across all iOS 7 devices. Its hard to capture the choppiness on film, test it out in person and the easiest stuttering to reconstruct is turning landscape & portrait mode in the AppStore app. Don't forget to always test out multitasking in and out of the Settings and AppStore apps to view the stuttering. I also crashed the calender app by opening it, but didn't catch it on film.

Seems just fine based on iOS 7's design.

It is fault of used animation design so in my view it isnt bug, Apple just used this type of animation to make user expierence on older devices not so struggling. Maybe on iOS 7.1 we will be able to turn off animations, would be fine for latest iDevices
 
Has the safari refresh tabs been fixed sick to death of the tabs refreshing all the time on the ipad

Thanks
 
It's really hard to film stuttering of an OS, would be nice to capture it perfectly.

When you launch a 1st or 3rd party app, it should not stutter at all and the same applies to multitasking in & out. The best method I've tried to demonstrate in the video posted above was rotating the Appstore to landscape and portrait mode. On any of my iOS 6 devices, the rotation animations are perfectly smooth in the AppStore. It's not a bug for sure, but more of performance issues in how the codes are not cleanly compiled in iOS 7. Especially somewhere in the multitask areas, 75% of the bugs we find are related in there .

Just check it out when you guys have a chance to see it in person and you'll see what I mean. Everything runs choppy on the iPad Mini Retina for some reason, it makes the IP5s looks so smooth LOL.

I've tried crashing Safari, but it seem to handle apple.com in different 4 tabs ok. Don't know how calendar crashed as soon as I opened it, maybe it was loading the events that were preloaded in the demo unit and in the video it loaded fine, since it was the second attempt.

I wish that iOS 7.1 beta period won't take 3 months like iOS 6.1 did. Because already passed a lot of time and taking 3 months more would be insane for such big software company. Because seems that were 7.0.x released for critical issues like iMessage, lockscreen bypass and etc. and big bugfix update should be on 7.1
 
It's gonna be a very long time until Apple fixes all these bugs, most of them have been around since iOS 7 Beta 1 and still they are not fixed. Throwing "it's a beta" card didn't do kaka for me, the previous iOS Betas were never like this and iOS 7 Beta was truly an Alpha build, now we are almost entering currently the beta stages.

Just like their video said "takes time", this applies to a complete overhaul of an OS and fixing all the bugs. No way you can do this in less than 10 months and it does take years.
 
Your "iPad Air Stutter & Lag" video isn't only exclusive to iPad Air nor is it an indicator of inferior performance on older iPads.

My iPad 4 has it's "moments" like this and for me iOS 7 is still being polished for iPad, I don't believe Apple will leave it like this.

The five finger pinch gesture animation still looks unfinished regardless of the iPad model iOS 7 is running on.
 
Go to your photos and if you have a video try to upload it to youtube and when your are going to fill up the "tag" it will crash
 
Might as well throw this in here too... just found this video, pretty funny he's all gung ho with his nail scrapping.

Yeh, changed title. I had iPad mini ( sold before iPad mini retina announcement) and performance was pretty fcked. Gestures was struggling a lot, rotation was laggy as hell, was a bit pissed.

Just tried, no crash while filling up tags. But yeh uploading videos through photos app is fcked up.

Emmm it isnt performance issues judging by that video. The main problem of that "sluggish performance" is animations delay. Yes there is some struggling while multitasking and etc. but on that video guy is trying to do it superfast which noone will do normally lol and animations slow downs him and it looks like "sluggish performance" ;D But yeh video is funny with his nail scrapping :D
