This.... would be a big help.
BTW not sure if anyone else has this issue but I frequently run my iPad off my iPhone's data via hotspot. I'll have hotspot turned on, but my iPad won't see the signal somehow. Need to toggle it on and off sometimes a few times for it to work right.
idk if this is common or maybe a hardware issue?
I was unable to find how to activate it. It may be in future betas, but it appears absent for now.
Edit, another user replied and said it was there. Maybe I'm just missing it.

iBooks still has the old appearance. I'd expect it to be updated and look more like Newsstand, but that is speculation.
Does all this detail mean developers are violating their confidentiality agreement with Apple? Just sayin'...
Yes. To get to Spotlight you now swipe down from the middle of the screen.
i may get some hate for this...
almost all new features are great additions!
not quite sure on the flat OS theme yet
biggest issue in my mind is, there is nothing innovative over what the competition is doing.. actually most of the new features were blatantly taken from competitors.

So it sounds like the 3D effects and even the transparency on the folder icons might be disabled on the iPhone 4? They are all enabled on my 4S but it seems to be noticeably warm the battery seems to be draining faster than usual.
So far, I have noticed that the swipe to delete appears to be missing from iOS 7. I don't like some if the icons and I am lukewarm on the overall UI design. I like that they did not go dark and I like that the colour changes dynamically.
BTW. I am a registered (paid up) iOS developer so I am not using somebody else to get the beta.

the more I hear about iOS 7, the more I like it
If people would focus on the features instead of obsessing over the damn app icons they'd probably like it too.

Good luck on that one.
Swipe to delete is still there just have to swipe from right edge to the left, it no longer works in either direction
This. It's only the beginning. People need to be reminded that they redid the entire UI top to bottom and added needed features all within 6-7 months. Some I'm sure will argue they should have waited until iOS 8 to do the full redesign to give themselves more time. But I actually don't mind that they're giving us a vision of where they want to go and then seeing it refine over time.

Like multitasking and quick toggles?
Happens to me ALL the time - I end up having to toggle it off/on and then leave the phone on the hotspot screen until the iPad finally sees the phone.
You'd think they could get this to work at LEAST as good as the jailbreak MiFi tether pgm - I used to turn that one on and it was ALWAYS available whenever my iPad looked for it
If Apple has some kind of power-saving feature where they make tethering unavailable to save power, at least they could also flip the switch to OFF to indicate that.
Very Niiice
I didn't like this while it was in the rumor stages but once it all comes together like this I can't wait for it. It will bring new life to my 4s and prevent me from having to jump ship to Samsung. Hopefully by time iPhone 6 comes around the hardware will be worth buying (because the 5 series hardware clearly is not).

Hitting the icon in the top-left corner seems to do the trick.

Yes he would have said people don't need quick access to wifi and Bluetooth. Or anything on the lock screen but the time and date. That's why we didn't get useful features like that when he was around.
