I like IOS 7.
There are a couple bugs to be sure but overall I am happy with it.
I like the control center, and I love the new way the app switcher works. though, I do wish they had a kill all apps button in the switcher.

I am one of the few who uses the standard typing and prefer it over touch typing and I find that vo is more responsive when I am moving around the screen and inputting letters.

There is a bit of sluggishness in regards to vo in other areas, but not enough to bother me. It is something I am sure will be worked out quickly. I like the feature of being able to 2 finger double tap to start dictation and stop dictation, it is a handy feature. I am having fun with the hand writing option as well.

The focus can jump around more quickly but I have learned how to adapt to it and I don't have that happen as much as in the beginning. I have the most challenge when moving apps into folders. I had no problems before but do to sensativity coupled with a glitch which will randomly kick apps I had already moved into folders, out, it is a bit annoying. But, again no big deal since I know that it will get fixed.

I haven't been on the web much with my phone so haven't encountered the heading bug. If this is still present that is disappointing as that was a great frustration.

I love the new siri voices, particularly the male voice. I am still not impressed with the high quality voice for voice over, but I felt the same with IOS 6. I think the compact voices are easier on the ear. The hq voices, sound hissy and not crisp, I don't know how else to describe what I dislike about them.

I did notice that when turning my phone back on today for the first time since I updated that it took longer then it used to. I don't know if this is because I am using the 4s or just my specific phone, but I definitely noticed a difference.

I am very happy with IOS 7. I know that every new program will have it's share of quarks and oddities which didn't crop up during the testing phase. I know too, that bugs will be addressed and that any kinks will get worked out.

The annoying thing for me is when I'm writing a text, and my texts go all
over the place.  Sometimes the beginning is good, but in the middle goes to
the end, and it sounds all jumbled, and makes me out to think I can't write
texts.

stupid decreased time delay for the touchscreen is annoying me to no end!
I'll be flicking through emails or stuff on Safari or whatever, and all of a
sudden, I jump 2 lines down instead of 1. Or I get placed at the top of the
article again, or the VoiceOver cursor jumps to some random link. I really
hope Apple takes a better attitude toward user's frustrations with this than
their blasé attitude toward things like the antenna issues in the iPhone 4.
Otherwise, things are all right. I can live with most of the other bugs, but
this one (if it's not a feature), is going to drive me absolutely bonkers!

I'm not seeing too much improvement with the headings bug.

Overall, though, I do like iOS 7.


Thanks,
Ari

Hi,
I do like the new app switcher and the fact that Voice Over sounds can
be turned on and off independently of the mute switch.  Most of the
other new features aren't a big deal to me.  The new Voice Over bugs
are getting a bit annoying and I find it to be pretty sluggish on my
4s.  If I had it to do over again, I think that I would have stayed with
IOS6.
Thanks,
Scott Duck

So it's a week since iOS 7 was released to the public. What are your
thoughts so far? As for me it's very good and I like the new features,
such as Control Centre. However, while it is very usable on my iPhone
4, it is sluggish, at least from a VoiceOver user's standpoint. But I
know it's going to run just fine on my upcoming iPhone 4s.
All comments welcome.
