Doesn't the software update normally say Download And Install when checking
if there is an update? Mine does say Install Now, and I have less available
space left on my device than I had before, so it looks as though it has been
downloaded on my device and is waiting to be installed. I am wanting to wait
for a while until some kinks are worked out of IOS 7. I do have the update
on one device, but I do not want it on both so I can enjoy apps that
developers have not gotten around to making compatible with IOS 7. I too
don't think it is fair that it is being forced to devices that haven't
updated yet.

Subject: Re: Apple now forcing iOS 6 holdouts to upgrade to iOS 7.
Hi, Chris and all.
I would, Chris, respectfully disagree with what you say below. I
neither like nor dislike change, but like change for the better and
dislike change for the worse. I have upgraded to iOS 7 because it has
one absolutely earthshaking feature which makes my use allot easier
than it was. If that feature weren't there, I would not have updated.
I have heard of very few things more foolish than Apple's downloading
the update to the devices. People could want to avoid the program
because of the bugs. They could be in a place with a satellite or
other expensive connection and not want to download such a large file.
This would be particularly nasty if the connection charged by the
megabyte. They could have their disk nearly full and need to keep
space open. They could have an older device which they don't want to
upgrade though Apple says it can be upgraded. They could have an
unstable network which may not like having large files downloaded over
it. They could have a network which is constantly in use and is,
therefore, very slow for downloads of large files. They could be
avoiding the update because they like jailbroken devices. They may
have applications which don't work, or don't work properly, on iOS 7.
I could go on. There are tons of reasons not to upgrade, many of which
are excellent.

I don't understand the hold out either and actually think this is a good
move on Apple's part. I know iOS 7 contain bugs, but all initial
releases of software, regardless of platform, will have bugs. They will
only improve not worsen over time. I have a few bugs myself in iOS 7 but
I cope with them and they are not deal breakers for me. I guess some of
us on here, as well as some of the general public, do not like change.
Well it's what it is so deal with it. And that's not me being harsh;
that's me being realistic.

Hello,
For those of you who want/need to stay on iOS 6 for whatever reason, I
come with some bad news.
According to an article I’ll link to below, Apple is pushing the OTA
update to 7 automatically to devices that don’t have 7 installed yet,
with
no user consent, and no way to reclaim the lost storage space the update
uses when downloaded.
