Hopefully I won't get flamed on this one although really, I could care less BUT:

I'm wishing Apple addes adaptive texting as part of the new iOS. I like using Siri for dictation even though she's not always accurate, but I played with a buddy's new Blackberry and the adaptive texting is 'SICK' as the kids say these days. Ridiculous how it anticipates words. I was knocking out sentences faster than any device I've used and that was on the Q10 (keyboard version)!!! Couldn't imagine the touch screen which I'm used to.

So fingers crossed.

Someone else also mentioned and I agree - I miss the "one more thing". lol
 
Suddenly someone with a new account or an account from few years ago which never posted will come out and say how un-innovative and doomed and arrogant and closed and no-widgets Apple is, and how did he jump ship to the [brand] [full product name] and with the [full feature name], he is never going back to iOS. And the reason why s/he still cares so much to post flames in MacRumors is that despite his hate for Apple he ironically uses the newest MacBook Pro.

+1. There are a lot of paid Samsung trolls on here. You can tell by the fact they all:

-Have brand new MacRumors accounts
-Claim to be lifelong iPhone fans
-Make their first post about how they are "jumping ship" to Samsung because, you know, they are known for innovation and bloatware.
 
Hey guys,

we over here at Apple hear you loud and clear.

Sent from iWatch, with iOS7
 
Samsung is throwing so much **** at the wall in their phone with the hopes that something will stick except many features are half baked and rushed. Apple will probably include some of these features. They have been working on them as well but, instead of rushing to the market, they have been testing them and will come out fully functional. Unfortunately, since Samsung has thrown everything including the kitchen sink into their phones, people will declare Apple is copying the competition.

Can't wait to eat ribs again!

"they have been testing them and will come out fully functional", such as Apple Maps, for example? Give me a break.
 
I wonder if iOS7 crashed on May 4-5 ... or it was just the weekend. (crash = stopped responding)
 
Why does no one on this forum have a friend that works at apple? 40,000 people in the bay area and not one of them has a drinking buddy on here?

I visited SF briefly a few weeks ago and met a guy who works at google doing something with glass. He had a pair and said Google wants it to be a mass market product, and that it sorta sucks to use. He said using it for photos and video was cool, but interacting with it was annoying. Not exactly ground breaking considering there are plenty of google glass reviews out there, but it's something.
 
One feature i would like to see: A means to go "back" on the iphone.

Often times you're in an app, and you tap on something, and you're jettisoned over to safari. To get back to the app, you must press the home button, find the app again, tap it, and hope that it's the same as it was when you left off.

I propose a two finger horizontal swipe to go back (or forward) between apps and safari. pretty good right?
 
Can someone explain to me how one knows it's a device running iOS 7 that is being used?

You don't _really_ know. But whenever your browser goes to any website, it tells it which browser, the version number of the OS, and some other bits. The browser can lie but usually doesn't.

Important: You only know the version number. At my company, we increase the version number the day the previous version ships. If Apple did the same thing, you would have seen "iOS 7" devices the day after iOS 6 was released. Other companies might change the version number as the very last thing before shipping.
 
So they are watching us watching them?

Yes. :apple:

I swear they visit sites like this deliberately, knowing full well you will post these statistics.
Subliminal marketing tactic ?

Remember in the 60's Coke was busted for inserting 1 frame of a Coke bottle every few hundred? The humane eye could not detect it, but your Brain's Subconscious could. After a while , you wanted a Coke.

Kind of like that on a 21st Century X100 Scale. ;)
 
"they have been testing them and will come out fully functional", such as Apple Maps, for example? Give me a break.

To be fair. If Samsung had released Apple maps it would have been touted as the most innovative thing in tech last year.

You can do it on the iPad, but it is more fingers than would be reasonable on the phone. I am not sure Apple wants to give the 2 finger swipe to an OS function and take it away from the Apps.
 
I am sure we have someone who is in charge of iOS 7 browsing (or even posting) on this forum. We will never know.
 

Ooooo.. he's so dreamy! :p

Not if they implement those gestures into safari the same way the magic trackpad uses it, which is to go back / forward on a web page. I wish they would.
