You can't go back. Either learn to live with iOS 7 or don't. It's your choice but you cannot downgrade back to iOS 6 so I suggest you dig in and get used to it, learn how to use it.


And unless you live under a rock there have been numerous articles descibing the changes and new look. you had plenty of time to decide if you liked it or not before you upgraded.


Of course you can go back! That it is not possible is a **** lie!

If Apple supports it is another question. I did it and I'm glad to have a usable UI again.


Seeing some polished pictures and videos is not the same as experiencing it yourself on your own device!

So spare us with silly comments like the one you posted.

It is very true that actually seeing iOS 7 on the device is much different than the screen shots we saw prior to launch. The screen shots were larger and legible. On the device, the screen is so white that your eyes are competing with the background to discern the thin text on top of it. Using yellow text against a white background is not a step forward for utility. What is even more alarming is that this is a thicker version of the original font Jony Ive wanted to use. It could have been even worse...

Many people have complained and talked about apple losing customers with every update that comes out. What makes you think they will lose them now. They keep gaining customers. In fact ios7 is the fastest adoption for a new os.

I can only speak for myself. I bought the very first iPhone model that came out, and have owned several iPhones.


I am getting increasingly impatient waiting for simple features (like putting the antenna control on a quick page, like telling the phone I'm in my car and having it understand that means Wifi=0ff and Bluetooth=on, Letting me set my alarm without those tedious spin-dials). And then there's the "real life" battery endurance.


I adopted IOS7 yesterday. I normally wait a month or so for the bugs to get worked out, but my Contract is up with AT&T in October. Somebody told me that IOS7 has improved battery life. So I thought I'd give it one more chance (my last month) to see if there's a significant improvement.


HENCE - I am part of that "fastest adoption for a new os" you speak about. However, your claim that this is proof that the IOS7 is well received is just not true. I adopted because I'm wanted one last look at iPhone before making my next 2-year commitment on a new phone (iPhone vs Galaxy).
