The real question is,

 

Can ios7 be made to not have the look and feel of some cheap android knock off?

So true lol

Is it just the icons you don't like?  If so, there are Apps in the App Store that allow you to customize most icons.

If it is the App functionality you don't like, then there are probably Apps in the App Store that will do the same thing, but with a different appearance.

...there are Apps in the App Store that allow you to customize most icons.

???.  That would be new... please explain.

Wow, I didn't know Apple would allow that.  I'll have to admit I'm quite surprised.  Thanks.

You're welcome.  Remember... there's an App for that.

Maybe in Android world, but not always in iOS.

So far, I've yet to find something that I want to do with my iPhone that I can't do, either with a native app or a third-party app.  Perhaps I've been lucky so far.

Same here, not so much with those who like to customize their devices.  Android is far more open for customization.

Agreed.  I use an Android phone as well.  I just prefer my iPhone.  There's not a lot of customization I really want to do, anyways.

Ditto, except I don't regularly use an Android.

Just read the reviews and all these are is links to the real app so it doubles your icons instead of replacing them. Not a good way to do it.

If anyone is interested, after talking twice to customer support, including two supervisors, and after submitting written feedback twice, a month has gone by without any response from Apple to address my particular situation.

Since my iPhone is now orphaned, and will no longer sync with the very same PowerPC version of iTunes that installed it... today I re-activated my old LG cell phone, de-activated the iPhone, and threw it in a drawer. A very expensive paperweight.

Thanks so much, Apple, for emasculating my iPhone --with nary a warning of the incompatibility with the prompt to upgrade to iOS 7.

"today I re-activated my old LG cell phone, de-activated the iPhone, and threw it in a drawer. A very expensive paperweight."

Why would you throw it in the drawer?

Why not sell it?

Yeah like he really went back to an old LG phone. I don't believe he really did that just because it won't sync with his ancient PowerPC computer.

I still have 6.1.3 on my iPhone and just came to find out if I wanted to upgrade...

The decision is made; I will stay with my current iOS. When the Apps are no longer compatible, I will either go to a different brand, or Apple will relent and not make my phone look like a comic book.

How long do think I have before I have to make that decision?
