Anyone upgrade yet? Any issues?
Don't have enough free space on my phone to do it over the air so looks like I'll be waiting until tonight
(No, I don't care how Android is a better OS or HTC makes a better phone)

Ran beta for a while. It was a nice overall upgrade gives the phone a fresh feel.
Wait until tonight. The servers are overloaded and even if you get it to install the update the authentication process with eventually get overloaded and then you're stuck with a non functioning phone until it gets through.
Im going to run it tonight at bedtime.

Shut it fan boy!
I've seen it and its pretty much everything I hate about the current OS being fixed.
I'm more excited about the wifi toggle than the other items

still disappointed you can't set default browsers or map apps :(
I let others be the guinea pig.
I'll probably update in three or four months. Once they come out with all the big fixes.

I'm downloading it to iTunes at home - had to restart once before I left to go back to work. We'll see if it actually worked tonight.
I'm getting the 5S friday or saturday so not sure if it's worth the hassle to upgrade the phone to use for a few days

In the last stage before thermonuclear meltdown!
Downloading the new iTunes and what the hell, why not?
My phone is backed up anyways!
I just did it and have had no issues yet

You used the word "YET"
So are you expecting something bad to happen?
Graphically speaking I think it's a step backwards, still playing with it on the ipad2.

Just downloaded it. Seems good. Can't find my emails inbox. I can get Siri to take me to it, but once I back out to my folders, there is not an inbox.
Any ideas?
Funny... I'm running iTunes 11.05.. yet I require it to download iOS 7.0... the first attempt to connect to the server failed. Way to fuck it up apple.

09-18-2013, 19:09
Downloaded straight from update on phone on both a 4 and 4s. Both work great no problems. When I first tried to download through iTunes is said it would take like 64 hours?!? Screw that!

09-18-2013, 19:27
I manned up. So far so good. Different!

09-18-2013, 19:31
Yeah the only improvements I like so far is the automatic updates and being able to block people now.

First attempt on my iPad mini -- downloaded software from cell phone tether, took a few hours, then error'd out with 40 minutes left.
Now on attempt #2...
Updated my 4S, it's actually a really nice refresh. No problems so far, snappy, and battery life seems the same.

Only took me like 20 minutes to download it. The install took well over an hour.
It was taking too long for me so I wasn't able to download it. My wife says it's very weird so far.
Working fine here. IPad 4.

Had it for the last week. No complaints, just hangs up every so often on an iPhone 4.
Well its definitely very different. It loaded 1200 emails. I cant find where you change it to limit the amount of loaded emails. Any help with it
Here are a coue screen shots for anyone interested
If you're familiar with webOS, many of the new features will be familiar to you.
I like it so far. Wife does not seem to be a fan, but needs to upgrade so she won't have a choice.
Well mine completed last night. It looks odd but seems to be working fine. It did move some of my folders and apps around onto different screens but that is easy to fix.

Don't like the look of the folders now... not very visually appealing.
A bit slow on the iPhone 4 - but ordering a new phone tomorrow so I don't mind.
Holding off on the iPad for now.

Agree. It was nice last night not hunting for an app when I was picking up dog shit.
I wish you could customize the apps that are at the bottom. Would like to have my shazam app instead of the camera/ stopwatch. If someone know how drop me a line.

If its like it has been, just hold an app until they start shaking then drag the app you want to the bottom and re organize.
I won't upgrade until its been out for awhile and there's a jailbreak for it.
Glad I have a Droid. Plus I have had a flashlight for years.

I'm going to quote myself so we don't get into this debate - topic is about how well iOS 7 is/isn't working. I don't have an Android and I don't care how awesome it is.

I jailbroke my 4s. Got a 5 last week and am suffering without having it jailbroken. So many things you can do that are unbelievable that apple does not do from the get go. Simple things. Like having access to select settings with just one finger swipe.

Upgraded OTA on the iPad Mini last night.
I started it, put it down, checked it later and it was done. Ran through the startup and it's working. Ho hum. I hate the damn thing anyway. I was hoping the upgrade would brick it.

Do what I did if you want to get rid of it. Leave it on top of a Mini in your shop and when you put the mini on the ground the mini on the mini will fall off and hit the ground too. Done.
Don't like your iPad Mini? Well I put a mini on a mini so I could watch my mini surf a mini why I surfed the internet...

So they expect everyone with an old iPhone to upgrade before getting a new phone? What if you're on the 3 ... you can't even upgrade to 7...

Not sure what they expect but here is what happenned to me. I did a backup of my 4s on Tuesday under IOS6, upgraded my 4s to 7 on Wed, and this morning when I tried to get my 5s to load my 4s backup using Itune it crashed. After trying twice I did a full restore of the 5c, and was able to load my 4s backup.... I talked to a guy from ATT at their store downstairs (16th street and Curtis) and he had 2 person experiencing the same problem this AM.

Help!
Did the software upgrade by accident on my Ipod. Now going thru my battery in about 8 hrs of not using it or 4 hrs of using it for music, whatever. Battery was lasting days without use and 8 hrs watching streaming. This sucks. Thing is losing 10% power every hour just sitting there! Turned off the location stuff and other suggested corrections but still gobbling power.
My iPhone 4 has the same issue. Battery dying much faster than before. I think you'll have to wait until a patch comes out to remedy it.
