Hmm, once again an update addresses zero of my issues.
I agree, me too.
I still can't get McDonalds to remember to give me that little bag of finely chopped peanuts every time I order a sundae.

Didn't notice bugs in 7.1, didn't notice improvements in 7.1.1:

This 18.8 MB update on my iPhone 5 requires Wi-Fi? WTF? You can download app updates far bigger than that over mobile data. I've just moved home and have a few days without home internet. 3G has been fine for everything else. Annoying. Hmm... my favourite place to borrow Wi-Fi is the Apple Store; I'll be making a trip tomorrow![]()
I shall also ask what was wrong, as I've used WiFi hotspot just fine on 7.1. In fact I relied on it extensively on my last trip, which nearly pushed me over my data plan for the month.
On the last billing period day I was at 3997 out of 4096.![]()
to download 18mb?
hope this fixes the constant spinning pinwheel on the homescreen bug that some people are experiencing.
So that the carriers don't suddenly lose tons of bandwidth when a whole bunch of people (way way more than any normal load) would start updating around the same time and continue so throughout the day or days following, given how many iPhones there are out there. 18 MB sounds small, but when thousands on thousands of people are updating around the same general time, it can and would get crazy.This 18.8 MB update on my iPhone 5 requires Wi-Fi?

Yes, Apple insists on wi-fi to download 18mb. I live 15 mins walk from an apple store by the way

what's your wifi download limit at home and speed???
I'd bet that as many people have Facebook, it still pales to the number of people with iPhones in general.With iOS 7 they introduced both automatic app updates and up to 100mb mobile data updates. There are some apps like Facebook that MANY users have installed- think how much bandwidth that can use when 100mb updates are put out. Also, you don't tend to receive alerts about iOS updates immediately- they are staggered, or at least COULD be.
Your justification may be the official one but it's not sound in my opinion. I think it's an oversight and that this limit could be upped to at least 50mb, or made carrier specific.

I don't have wi-fi, I just moved as I said in my post. No proper internet for a week
I'm a dummy though, I just realised I can update over iTunes (on a laptop using a tethered connection from my phone!) Still, pretty annoying, so much for post-PC eh?!
In about 27 minutes there will be a thread "7.1.1 battery life is much worse"...
It happens every time.![]()

I'm not really saying the justification is a perfect one or completely covers it all, but that's essentially what's behind it. Perhaps at some point they'll tweak it where some smaller updates might be allowed. Or perhaps there are other things in play as well to go against that--like something not going right during an install and it needing to pull and install the whole file (which is much larger) or some additional Apple server validation that is needed and requires a stable connection otherwise things would get hung up in the middle of the install, where WiFi is generally seen as a much more stable medium in cases like this vs. cellular.
Is full screen caller I'd back ?????
just tested it's not.
Ugly visual bug when multitasking with gestures is still present on iPad.

Anyone else experience this?
I don't see anything wrong in video.

The flaw resides in the secure transport mechanism of iOS version 7.1 and earlier for iPhones and iPads and the Mountain Lion 10.8.5 and Mavericks 10.9.2 versions of Mac OS X, according to advisories here and here. The bug makes it possible to bypass HTTPS encryption protections that are designed to prevent eavesdropping and data tampering by attackers with the capability to monitor traffic sent by and received from vulnerable devices. Such "man-in-the-middle" attackers could exploit the bug by abusing the "triple handshake" carried out when secure connections are established by applications that use client certificates to authenticate end users.
They still haven't "fixed" the music lock screen. There is still white bars on non-square album art. Image
Previously the white space use to be the background. Mainly a visual quirk but quite eye catching.
In disappointed this didn't get fixed. I think it looks terrible.
You already have had the spinner appear on the home screen in iOS 7.1.1 for no reason and it wouldn't go away even after some time except when you reset the phone?Well, it's too soon to judge battery life but NONE of the main issues I experience with my iPhone 5 have been fixed. Namely:
Spinning data wheel (for no apparent reason) on occasion. A hard reset temporarily rectifies things.
Notification centre always opens on 'missed'.
Safari frequently 'hangs' whilst loading webpages, and only force-closing the app cures it - again this is just a temporary measure.
Safari frequently reloads webpages.
A question mark still exists over battery life, but I haven't had the update for more than a few hours so cannot judge this yet. My first impressions are that it seems no different/better.
