iOS 7

Is it just me that thinks it's been designed by Fisher-Price?

I avoided 6 as lots of people had trouble, but went to 7.

Anything I can do to turn it back?

TheNorthernTrain

factory reset?

Turn it off and on again?

I personally quite like the interface. Took me some getting used to but I'm growing to it. Some bits I don't like but it's like when they change facebook, everyone moans for a bit and then decides actually its not as bad as first thought.

The problem with 7 is 7, 8, 9. That's why 6 was a bit jumpy, you would be too if you knew that 7 might be coming for you next.

nicklouse

think you might be to late to turn back.

not had any issues with 6 and you get used to 7 and there are some nice bits.

BigAl

Think you're right Nick - no going back

I've no problem with how it works but my phone looks like a toy now

Just have to wait for 8 or some clever so and so to produce an App

Strava looks awful now it's been upgraded for iOS 7. Otherwise it all just works.

I had lots of fun when my phone looked like this



Imagine if they still did, that was the most mobile phone ever, it has wheels, what will they think of next?

I'm glad they've added a bit of colour to it, certainly beats the dreariness of the rest of our mundane routines.

Do they still make toys like that? Not sure a 7 year old would even know what it was?

The image of the telephone will likely not die - my kids know what one looks like though they have never seen one in their short lives. Another example would be a camera:

Muhahaha suffer apple users!

IOS 7 the bastard child of android and ios6 when they were both high on acid!

oodboo

As my first IOS device is running IOS 7 I expected it to be a bit, err, simple. I wasn't disappointed. I'll be keeping android on my phone but for tablets it has to be IOS for now. I like the 3D effect to it though.

You know how you'd be pleased if an Orange owner was to suffer because of their Orange bike?

Thewaylander

Yup to me apple is the audi/BMW/Orange on the tech world...

Mostly because of the owners if i'm honest, though never particuarly got on with the tech either. Since this is the CC i'm allowed to be totally horrible about apple owners, with sweeping generalisations and so on.

Gt arrowheads still does look like that, but is having trouble synching it to his vtech laptop

In those days if your phone crashed it was normally into a Tonka truck

Is that aimed at me?

i have an Orange and am proud!

Who'd have thought it, a valid comparison of apples and oranges?

And on the morning after I got given a case of physalis, at least that's what i think she said
