[Electronics-talk] Get to know iOS 7: Mail, by Macworld

[A Kelly]

Hi.  I have an iPad and iPod running IOS 7, and I am not sure if I like it.  I spent some time at an AT&T store debating whether or not to upgrade my 4S to IOS 7.  The AT&T rep said, in all honesty, IOS 7 will run fine on iPhone 4S, but not on iPhone 4.  I have spoken to numerous people running IOS 7 on iPhone 4 and they are not experiencing any issues, so difficulties may be hit and miss.

Since upgrading some devices to IOS 7, I have noticed the screen becoming more sensitive, causing VoiceOver to be jumpy.  To fix this, I went to settings, general, accessibility, scrolled down to reduce motion, and doubled tapped on it to toggle it to "on". 

Eventually, I guess we'll all have to move over to IOS 7 since Apple doesn't support IOS 6, if we want to receive security updates and have our apps run properly.  Just a thought.  On the bright side, IOS 7 has the handwriting feature and iTunes Radio.  Have a wonderful day.

>> I updated on an Iphone 4 and I am not sure I like it yet. For sited people who see the new graphic interface they like it, but my particular phone seems sluggish now, I here more clicks as I navagate the screen, I have been unable to answer a couple calls because it didn't register the touch of my fingers and voice over has been more jumpy when navagating around the screen in genral. The first day I updated it Voice Over sounded like it had a cold, as if the speaker was muffled, but after the battery died and I recharged it that day it seems to sound normal now. If I could go back I would have just left the last OS, but it may be not a big deal for others, or it may be different on 4s, 5 and 5S, but my phone seems more sluggish now.
