iOS 7.1 Feedback

updated my all idevices and found 1 bug i think, if i use safari after few minute it hangs, i tried fresh restore (full iOS7.1) but things remain same, overall 7.1 is good in speed and work.
My 5S is flying now! I see now why people were saying 7.0 was slow. Can't wait to update my mini when I get home from work!
I think given the universal response that it's much more responsive really shows that it was a dog compared with iOS 5/6.
Glad it's finally here!
Safari seems a bit snappier!
(Only joking).
On a serious note hopefully it will cure those safari crashes on my wife's iPad air.

The animations are seriously quick. You notice it immediately. System apps launch in under a second, now. I'm impressed at how fast the App Store launches.
The animation for the multitasking view is still just like 7.0.x and I hope they speed that up too in the next update.

In my experience iOS 7.1 is the fastest, most security, and reliable mobile operating system ever released. I'm very impressed and excited to get these loaded onto all my iOS devices as soon as possible. Android and Windows just can't compete with Apple in the areas that matter to consumers.
So yeah this is a really great update - and amazing we all get it for free on all our devices!!!

Safari honestly seems snappier, no joking here
7.1 generally seems much better - animations are so much better, especially the pinch to close apps on the iPad. The green phone/messages icons are also much nicer.
Only thing I don't like is the keyboard - keys are way too bold and the shift key will take some getting used to.
Haven't come across any bugs so far. Not voting until I test battery life. Overall it's very stable though.

Honestly, I'd rather listen to more recent music by artists anyway, so I'd rather not scroll all the way down. But they should have a way to choose what you prefer.

Improved performance on both my iPhone 4S and 5, just updated my 1st gen iPad Mini but not had chance to play properly with that yet. Lots of subtle but good improvements, I like the new keyboard and easier dismissal of notifications in the notification centre.
I've an iPhone 4, yet to do the update on that as was about to sell it but will update it now - both to help sell it and to see how it performs with 7.1. Good to see Apple is still thinking of a 4-year old phone and targeting part of the latest update on improving it's performance

I don't think so. I did have reduce animation on. I turned it off, and the pause is still there, but it is masked by the animation a little bit.
Also, I am using the pinch-to-close function on the ipad. I noticed that if you press the home button to go to the homescreen, you get a different animation which is faster.
Either way, I have heard beta testers report significantly improved animation speeds, but it looks about the same for me.
I've only noticed less stutter in the notification center, and so far, safari hasn't crashed (but that's not saying much since it's only been 2 hours).
My iPad 2 is heck of a lot faster now. And it appears to have much better memory management, because usually it can only handle 2 apps open at a time, before restarting apps, but now it can do 4. Awesome update!
I just got it installed and I love it so much ether then before. It helped my iPhone 4 so so so much.
The keyboard seems faster when I send texts. The phone and messages apps are also a darker green in color. Haven't had a chance to surf the web on it yet.
Mine was doing this as well, stopped after I restarted the phone

Never mind that, it came back after a few minutes.

This is the crappy performance I am getting out of 7.1. I see no difference in animation speeds, but I have noticed the pinch-to-close feature not responding as well. Don't know if it is something else, or the update, but either way I am not impressed.

Doing a clean-restore for 7.1
anyone else already done it?... is it much better than just upating?
