iOs 7 on iPad 3

overall performance on ipad 3 is slow. in my eyes this is not a stable release. this has still beta status.

i'm waiting with the update on my iphone 5 until apple is fixing this issues.

currently ios 7 on ipad 3 is not usable for me.

I noticed the battery drain and the keyboard issue.

Since the instalation of ios 7 on my ipad 3 i also have the same problems.

Battery drain, keyboard, background + the whole this is very slow.

I changed the background and i took 12 seconds!

Apple please fix this software problem soon.

Thanks.

I've had a bad experience too. The keyboard does lag somewhat, but most alarming I had my battery at 52% before going to bed last night. I have a case which auto sleeps the device and when I woke up my battery was at 6% and demanding to be charged. This has never happened to me in almost 2 years of owning the device. I had updated all apps after the install of iOS7 and the App Store still indicates the apps need updating. I checked the open apps and it appears as though every app that was updated was also running? That may be a contributing factor for the battery bleed

Haven't tried the background change yet.

It also broke my favorite app (Marvel Unlimited) which I realize is an app issue more than an OS issue, but still a bad experience thus far.

On the plus side it runs great on my iPhone 4S!

Same here. It is very slow and not really usable.

im having the same issue with my "New" ipad. the keyboard is very sluggish. I have called Apple and is on the phone with them again. I will update with info as sson as im done.

I'm actually not getting any of these problems. The one main issue is that iTunes Match is failing me...but the rest is actually good. Sorry to hear all of that!

*Typing lag iOS 7*

Sorry to say I've nothing more to offer other than yep, experiencing all of the above on my iPad 3 WiFi only 32Gb.

We are talking first world problems here - the device isn't unusable but when you've been used to it being so slick and smooth, I at least can't help but be disappointed somewhat. To put things in perspective, I've upgraded my iPhone 5 to iOS 7, and found none of these issues:

General slowdown and jerkiness, especially noticeable going from landscape to portrait and vice versa

Painfully slow preview/selection of wallpapers

wifi connection less reliable - prone to stuttering

I hate to be a whinger as I love the new look and feel but I'd trade that for the smoothness of 6.1.3 in a heartbeat. Here's hoping some fixes can be made as I'd rather not have to go down the downgrade path.
