Hi Christopher, Discussing features or the pros and cons of iOS 7 in a constructive way is I think just fine, but Joanne is not exactly wrong in what she said since there have been enough messages in the last 10 days which are really nothing more but complaints which in some cases approach wining. I absolutely don't want to give any examples here as I am not saying this to target anybody, it is just an observation.
As far as closing apps, Christopher, try this, it' even faster than the 3-finger swipe up if you have let's say 8 or 10 apps or more which you want to close. Bring up the app switcher, visually you see Home on the left and 2 more apps, one in the middle and another on the right. Touch the app in the middle or swipe right from Home. Flick up or down to put focus on the Delete/Close option. Now put your finger back on the app and hold it and then start split tapping. You can split tap just about as fast as you can and one app after another will slide over, the Close option in the action rotor remains activated and I can close 10 or 15 apps as fast as I can split tap which is a lot faster than doing 10 or 15 3-finger swipes up.

I just do a three finger swipe up, I hear a message that the app is closing, and the next app now has focus. I can just keep doing a three finger swipe up and never have to swipe to the left or the right. I wonder why it works for me but not for you. Note that I don't think discussing the different features of IOS 7 or the iPhone in general, debating their relative pros and cons and reporting issues and suggestions to Apple to make the iPhone a better experience for the blind is complaining. I hope the below message doesn't keep anyone from discussing anything here on the list. On 09/30/2013 07:39 AM, Joanne Chua wrote: > In conclusion, we, as human just lazy.
