People need to stop being so ignorant. ITS AN OPERATING SYSTEM. You're supposed to do research and look into what it has, whats supported. If you are business oriented, why blindly follow a new update? Updates aren't new, there are always compatibility issues like there will always be with new software. No company will support downgrading an OS. If you're having problems, back up your phone and restore it, because if its still having problems it could be a hardware issue, and if not, I'm sure they will release bug fixes like they always do. If you really think its a problem, under your warranty ask for an experess replacement, most likely will come with iOS 6. I know so many people who just like hearing themselves complain, said they didn't like iOS 7, updated to it... for some reason, just to complain some more.

Some features of new OS cannot be found by screenshots only. Like several movement oriented to left-handed people. You are right that this is only OS, but OS must provide possibility of comfortable work for any people. IOs does not provide such opportunity and therefore is not good OS.


As about your statement about backup and restore. You don't know that backup of iDevices is not a normal backup and made from iTunes. This is not image backup. This program restores backup from old OS into new OS version. And I don't know method to create image backup of iDevice like I do it with normal computer disks.

New version of iOS downloaded to my iPad automatically and requires a lot of space (about 1g for image and reserves about 2g for future install). How to delete this terrible ******* if I don't want to install it in future? Apple did not ask me about this automatical eating of space. The only way to avoid this download is having too small amount of free memory, but I had 6g free space and now I have less than 3g.


Your suggestion, please.

are you satisfied with new iOS ?

Yes, I am. I've experienced no slowdowns, no service interruptions, no power or charging issues, and so on. I actually have longer battery life now.


With only a single exception, everyone in my social group is either 'very pleased' or 'accepting' of iOS 7. Only one person is unhappy, and that's for aesthetic reasons, and even he admits that he should have looked at the previews of iOS 7, especially since I told him it was very, very different.


Out of about 25 people that use iOS devices in my circle of friends, only one is griping at all, and none of them are experiencing any technical issues. I'm confident of that, because if they were, I'm the one they would ask as the resident 'tech guru'.

I have NEVER not been able to find a way to downgrade. SHAME on you for shaming someone for spending there money and instilling trust. Shame on you for believing Apple should act like Facists. If I already bought a license why would that license not still be optional to me? Especially if I supposedly had a choice to upgrade.? Just days ago my phone was fine. We pay how many hundreds of dollars a month? What should Apple care if I would be happier with older software, shame on you, it's my phone, my business. And I am always found a way to downgrade before.
