What DON'T you like about iOS 7?

two things I don't like.

1: The battery drain

2: There's no update facility for Facebook and Twitter from notification centre. Its one of the things in iOS6 that I liked. Now I have to go to the FB and Twitter apps individually and update a status or tweet, which contributes to the point above. Hope they get back the update facility to notification centre.

But its the kind of thing that has been in iOS for ages...holding a button to get more options. You have to press the . to add and ending so pressing and holding gives you all the others.

Agreed in theory that it's been done previously. BUT, when something is revamped to be less intuitive (meaning it WAS ok, but then changed to something that's no longer obvious), then that's just not ok with me. Just my two cents.
 
I updated my 4S at the weekend. My only gripe is the lack of consistency across the design.

Some icon gradients go dark>light and some go light>dark and some don't have a gradient at all.
There's also a mix of old skeuomorphic and new 'flat' design icons, and some apps haven't been changed at all (reminders and find my friends). This seems quite un-Apple like in my opinion.

Not sure of the point of the parallax effect on the home pages. It's very subtle. I think I'd rather save a tiny bit of battery life to be honest. You can turn it off in the accessibility options but then you also lose the nice zoom effect when you go back to the home screen, which is a shame.

Overall I quite like it. To be honest it does everything the same, it just looks slightly different.
 
I agree the animations take too long. They make you let them finish before you can interact again with the software... Android handles this much much better. I have a feeling Apple is working to resolve this issue.
 
Why the hell are my Reminders for today set underneath the 'Tomorrow' section? I mean, really?

It doesn't matter what I don't like about iOS 7, Apples the know all & be all.

I do thank Apple for iOS 7... It pushed me over the edge of frustration and into the wonderful world of Android.

I held out up to & including the iPhone 5S, but surrounded by big beautiful Androids at work I finally listened to my friends and bought a Galaxy Note 3, a Nexus 7, and I'm thrilled.

Especially since they interface & sync seamlessly with my rMBP & MBA. Two of the finest laptops ever.

Restart your phone. That's a bug, they should not be below the tomorrow section.

Try a hard reset, hold your home and power buttons together until your phone restarts.

Thanks. I tried the hard reset which didn't work so I tried turning the Tomorrow section off and on and it seems to have done the trick. I'll keep an eye it.

Here is what I dont like


2)Removing the .com from the keyboard
Click to expand...
Hold down the . button
4) Loading all old email - stop at 50 took me 30 mins to remove the 1200 emails that loaded
Click to expand...
Change "mail days to sync" in your email account settings.
7) only 6 apps per folder - stupid
Click to expand...
There's loads more than that. Swipe to the side.


I am almost ready to remove IOS 7 and go back to 6.

You can't.

They did change how animations can be reduced just recently...and mostly because of some public opinion it would seem...so at times when it comes to some things it can matter what you (and others) think.
 
The unprofessional, teenage girl look.

-Reminders app. The whole "deck of cards" concept is awful. The color choices are awful, the font is HUGE, the calendar on the bottom is gone... It looks so elementary. The swiping is hard to get used to. It is so disappointing. And, my alerts won't work. Not sure why.

-calendar for all the reasons already mentioned

-the volume and ringer display is not transparent enough. If your watching a video and need to turn the volume up or down the display that pops up is huge and not transparent and you need to replay the section of video missed.

-wall paper zooming in
