What do you mean with 'quick reply'?

I don't have the beta.

Its a feature that you can reply to a text message right from the notification banner without leaving the app you are in. Very handy.

We got it...just it was in OS X Mavericks not iOS 7 like everyone wanted.

But since its in OS X then it WILL be coming to iOS hopefully soon
 
Cause last time I went on iOS 7 Beta and then decided to go back it messed up my notifications on iOS 6 for some reason. Took it to the Apple Store got a new iPhone. Eh it was complicated. I don't want to risk it again.
But it sounded like you were going to risk it for beta 7.

I hope quick reply comes in 7.1, but if they want to do it correctly, they should have an API (like in Macericks) so apps like textie and whatsapp can utilize it. This makes me think they'll wait till 8, as I don't think they add new developer APIs in .x releases.

Didnt Cook say he wanted to open up iOS more?

he said he was open to opening up aspects of iOS if it made sense for the company

so, no, not really

personally I'd just like to see iMessage's protocol opened. SMS is such an outdated protocol for communication at this point that we need something standardized to reach every phone.

I agree. Unfortunately, Apple values it as a way to strengthen their platform. This is probably why they decided not to open up FaceTime (remember when Jobs promised that?)
 
The only glimmer of hope I see in their story is their claim that a beta 7 has been seeded to Apple's partners. If that's true (a big "if"), then we'll get it sooner or later. I'd really hate to think that beta 6 is it until GM.

Wouldn't we have heard from the partners though? Someone would have leaked the release somewhere, I'd think

I don't know, maybe. I don't even know who these "partners" are. Are they carriers like Verizon and AT&T? I have no idea. If BGR is right (hey, stop laughing!) then I don't know what Apple is waiting for. Why not go ahead and push it out to us?

Yes, they are carriers. It's possible they found a serious last-minute issue they want to resolve first. Or BGR has no idea. I'd bet on the latter.
 
You seem to always ask this question to people. Thought you'd give up by now.
People seem to like to question my questioning (especially when it doesn't even involve them). Thought they'd give it up by now. :cool:
 
This sucks, was looking forward to it :( I really think that they should release another beta before the release..isnt the release like 3 weeks away?
 
Am still hoping for redesigned music app.
The current one sucks. At least they could add a button in the music app that brings the equalizer page up.
Seems like that is just common sense.
 
Apparently iOS 7 Beta 7 wont be here till next week according to multiple credible sources from what Ive heard. I believe it will be released on Tuesday 8-27-13 @ 1:00 pm EDT. Hopefully this is the last Beta before GM.

Yes..."multiple credible sources".
 
i just came across this on the BGR site, i know, take it with a grain of salt:

UPDATE: There has obviously been a change of plans since Apple did not release iOS 7 beta 7 on Monday. The new version has already been released to Apple’s partners, however, so it should be pushed out to developers soon.
