I have noticed that the graphics are slower, anyone else?

Fine on the iPad but I haven't updated the iPhones.  I assume you have few Apps running and lots of capacity?

Perhaps he is getting confused with the slow fading features ...

Updated my old 4S yesterday and the Bluetooth works fine with my 04 E53.

Graphics definitely seem slower, in fact the whole fine seems slower, and its eating battery quicker.

Got 2 of the iPhone 5S this morning and iOS7 runs better on them than the 4S (not surprisingly). There's also a bug fix patch out already - 7.0.1

Anyone want a mint condition black 16GB 4S.
Cheers
Phil.

7.01 is only for the 5S and 5C.  No more 5S phones until October, but there are shed loads of 5Cs about......

I'm sticking with my good ancient 4 as it works with the cars and uses a 'proper' connector - none of this lightning rubbish...... ;)

Yes, used the swipe away feature to close a load of apps. I find when using the key pad and going from letters to numbers is noticeably slow with the iPad. Speed graphics seem fine on iPhone.

Didn't like the look initially but once I changed the background to a dark colour I'm actually quite liking it.

Hmmmm.........kids!!

Right, on the iPhone/iPad you close press the 'Home button' to exit the a App, and then press it again twice in quick succession.  That will show all Apps running in the background.

All you do is put a finger on the app you no longer want and swipe it up the screen.  That 'force closes' it.  Simples.

didn't know this until somebody showed this yesterday. lol

here's potentially another stupid one: how can i select a series of photos and bulk-delete? photos have got ultra complicated since i enabled icloud! my 4yo went away on a 15 min photo shoot and came back with 512 photos! everything from the tv to rugs to flip flops to slugs outside lol

Go into photos app, tap to choose photos rather than albums, tap 'Select' and then each photo to be deleted and one all are selected then tap the bin symbol.

That worked thanks but another question - with some other photos the recycle bin icon is grayed out!

It might be photos I copied into the cloud folder in the comp though..
