Full screen caller picture on iOS 7.1?

Now that iOS 7.1 is out I successfully upgraded my iPhone 5.

It changes the full screen pictures to a small picture in a circle. It used to be more

aesthetically pleasing, showed more information at a glance, it's totally beyond me while they would change something that looked so good.

Is there any way to restore the full screen caller images?

iPhone 5

Every smartphone manufacturer adds new small make-up upgrades. Especially android always add something new and fancy. Look what Apple did! They missed the point again like "share button is not working properly with applications ex. Dropbox, sending and recieving music is almost impossible between non-apple devices or non-itunes compatible devices"

List goes on... I think there is no need to love Apple anymore. Because obviusly iphone cant do what android devices can...

Please, if you are living in "customer support" country, call to apple everyday so they will notice this problem (because they dont read a forum).


Please don't do that. Apple Support can't make any changes to the operating system. All that will do is take time away from people that are having resolvable technical issues.


You don't call Apple Support to request feature changes. You go to www.apple.com/feedback. Just in case it hasn't been mentioned here already a dozen times.

Well I went to the Apple Store today to buy a new Macbook. I brought up this issue to the genius, asking him if he knows what were Apple's intentions with this change. He just said that he is aware of the change, doesn't know the reason, and there's nothing he can do about it, but I was not the first people inquiring about the removal of the full screen caller ID.

I'm still hopeful that this feature will reappear in future updates, just please keep submitting your feedbacks here: http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html

There's no need to post a totally new thread about how to give feedback to Apple. The appropriate link has been provided, ad nauseum in this thread, as well as many others.

Is anyone having problems with no photo displaying AT ALL when someone calls? All my photos that were assigned to contacts were photos taken on my phone. They still show up in contacts and next to favorites, but when someone calls, I don't get any photo, not even a small one. I've tried deleting the photos from a contact and re-adding them, but still nothing. Any ideas how to get even a small photo back on caller id? 😟
