    Yes. And when you select "Artists" you should get.... a list of artists, you think? Not a list of albums sorted by artist. And why waste all that space for artwork on the Artist list? There IS NO ARTIST ART. So IOS7 creates some bogus screen-eating substitute for artwork where there shouldn't be any, and then throws a bunch of blank space between them so you can only see four of them at a time.

     

    Thanks, Apple. That was stupid.

    Gee, that's swell.

    Do you have a technical question?

    If not, then leave your feedback for Apple here:  http://www.apple.com/feedback/

    You can go back, I did, but I had to use my upgrade and get a new iPhone at  the Verizon Store.  I got a new 4s and it has the factory installed iOS 6.1.3 on it and I WILL NOT upgrade to the iOS 7, not until they fix the issue where it makes me dizzy to look at my screen.

    Wow, driving on curving roads must drive you absolutely bonkers. 3D movies must put you in a coma. I think it is more that people just want to complain. With all the information on IOS 7, videos, etc. you still chose to upgrade. One has to wonder what motivated that decision.

    @NyBe, my apologies.  I meant to say this to ngk22r, he or she was being rude to you.  So sorry, I posted it in your reply.... I'm getting a new phone too, but the funny thing -only make Apple happier to see more phones regardless if they are new or old, right?

    I installed IOS7 on my Iphone and my Ipad at the same time.Not a problem to download it and install it.

     

    But Big mistake...if I knew what IOS 7 really looks like,I wouldn't download it in both (Ipad and Iphone)

    With my Iphone 5 and IOS6,everything was just perfect,stylish design,best Icons comparing to the other smartphones.

    Well I didn't regret one single moment the price I paid for it.I was paying for a top class phone.

    Now,I donwloaded IOS7 and...the change is too big.Toooooo different.Some will like it but the majority I believe will not.

    Too risky from Apple Team to make a such big change assuming that everybody will like.The success of this phone was not only the design but the very jice looking display.No a smart market strategy.

    I have been checking in internet how to downgrade to IOS 6,but no way.(Another big mistake from Apple)

     

    I really hate the new design and colors of the Icons,disturbing colors,features without any life in the colors,it's just really sad to Look at.Really feel I have a fake Iphone in my hands.

    I can see in the web that IOS 7 is not welcome at all generally speaking.

    After I downloaded IOS 7,bugs and freezes started,the biggest one,the bottom of the screen disappear,cannot make a call and I cannot open some applications.

    Well I bring it to my phone operator to check what's going on,and he tell me that so many people have problems and they really don't like how they screen look with IOS7.They say it looks like a cheap phone from Mainland China (I live in China..)

     

    Anyway,no way to fix the problem,then they said they will give me a new one.Now I hope that it's still the IOS6 installed on it otherwise I will buy the Samsung S4 where I can easy custimize the screen and icons.

     

    Sad to say,I really love iphone,but comparing to the nice design of IOS 6,this new IOS 7 really broke the relationship with Iphone.

     

    Regards to all,

     

    Dimitri

    Twelve years old or not, I can spell "ridiculous" and the use of "what're" is not accepted as standard English. You made up a contraction that doesn't really exist.

     

    People knew full well what IOS 7 was going to look like. There were hundreds, if not thousands of web sites with information. There was the full video of the Apple announcement. To install what was probably one of the most widely reported OS upgrades, then complain you don't like the OS, is just, well, silly. The upgrade was not automatic but had to be installed by the user, a deliberate decision. Get used to IOS 7. All new phones will come with IOS 7. Don't like it, go to Droid, which also has it's own issues.

    Which begs the question, "How could you not know?" IOS 7 was one of the most widely reported phone OS upgrades ever with thousands of web sites and videos on the subject. Yet you made a deliberate decision to upgrade and now feel the need to complain. You did it to yourself.

    I have no intention of moving to another platform I have been using Apple products too long but that doesn't mean I'm happy with this update either as many others have stated . This is the Apple discussions forum. Sure there have been other issues with other ios updates over the years and I have dealt with those such as poor battery life etc. but this was a major change and not for the better. Visually it's terrible and you should not have to be trying to tweak settings from the get go for some minimal improvement . It should not be that difficult to read text and It should look good out of the box as it always has.

     

    There are enough people that hate this update and Apple should know about so they are all venting . For those who are happy with IOS 7  and  keep saying the question has been answered you can't move back to OS6 greatyou shouldn't have updated  . Then move on to another thread , why keep reading this one . Go to another thread and  help someone else . In the mean time let people vent and try and find some solution to this . And yes I have posted my concerns to Apple feedback as others should .

    Seriously Raymond?  You want to start internet drama with a complete stranger?  Is your life THAT pathetic? OK, if you really need me in your life...listen up.   Go back to the beginning and follow all my posts and you will see I am OK now.  I ran to Verizon after three days of this dizzyness nonsense (which since you have this desire to know about me....I had never experienced this feeling before with an electronic device) and purchased a new iPhone 4S that has the factory installed iOS 6.1.3 in it.  So, don't you worry about me Raymond, I am OK now, but thanks for asking.  Now, go play outside.

    Well they certainly didn't tell us it would drain a battery that normally lasts three days down to needing a 2:00 charge after being up to 100%... nor did they tell us it would disable many of our apps... nor did they tell us that the phone would no longer ring or give alerts for text messages... I can't wait to find out what else they didn't tell us...

    The truth of the matter is that no software beta testing can ever compete with the initial public release, in terms of finding & correcting bugs.  This is true for any software, from operating systems to video games.  Like it or not, early adopters are part of the 'final' beta testing...

     

    Which is why I don't install new operating systems to my important, personal devices until some time has passed and all of the early adopters have found & reported the major bugs to the software developer.

    Apple has a big PR prbolem brewing here.  Worse than maps.

     

    This thread would be almost twice as long as it currently is if posts had not been deleted.  . 

     

    Jeez.  I've been an Apple supporter for more than two decades, way before it was cool.  I'm now quite disappointed with the company.  

     

    Apple, bring IOS 6 back.
