iPhone

Yeah, because the first thing it does it send your name, address and fingerprint to the government.

Why would they need your address when they can just use technology to pinpoint your exact location? Silly mech

Anyone else not liking the new look of ios7?

All those flashy colours they added and the new look interface look yuk.

[selfish]

The colours of the new interface are fairly subdued, in use it's actually a lot less colourful and obnoxious than iOS6. The whole thing really just gets the fuck out of your way a lot more.

You'll like it.

GPS, phone number, front facing camera and now finger prints. All we need is a dna sample. Combine that with Apple ids, facebook ids on phones and search history, you can build very detailed profiles of people, NSA's wet dream come true.

I love how wacky lestat gets sometimes.

[lestat]

With all the NSA leaks/news, I don't think it's wacky or far fetched. It's actually worse for non US citizens since the NSA doesn't need warrants to spy/collect information on individuals.

[flipswitch]

Just downloaded iOS7 but errors are coming up on 3rd gen iPad, mini, iPhone 5. Meh

Anyway on my 4s it's brilliant. And to think I hated it before ( going by pics/vids on YT)

Scared to upgrade on my iPad 2

Selling the last ios device that lives in the house on the weekend (Bring on the GumTree Frenzy). They can deal with ios7 themselves.

Remember lestat, Mech works for google.

My iPad 2 will be our last iOS device, work phone is gone in two weeks. I just find streaming video to be much better on the iPad

[Peppermint Lounge]

& Carc of course.

And Lost Cities.

Updating the iPad now, not so keen to do so on my iPhone 4.

[flipswitch]

Just a heads up, my 4s and third gen iPad are draining battery slightly more than ios6. That's during usage and on standby. It's not a big difference but it's definitely there.

[General Chaos]

ITT Flipswitch updates his iOS device and then tells everyone it drains the battery........

I updated my iPhone 4 and it doesn't seem any more sluggish than it was with ios 6.

This. Seems to occur in every new version.

Cheers, I actually had a chance to try it out on another phone and it seems good to go.

Loving iOS7 on the iPad. Also, "By The Seaside" is the fucking funniest ringtone ever.

[Cletus]

iPhone 4s here and the update is a lot faster for me.

Battery seems to be draining faster too though.

[mech]

So who got an iPhone 6?

I got the 128gb one. Finally enough space to store all my music.

[Peppermint Lounge]

Nice. My work supplied 5c will be with me for a while but I'm loving ios8 improvements so far.

[mech]

My wife has a 5, i.e. pretty much the same as the 5C, and still loves it. I did have second thoughts on upgrading tbh - the 5 is "good enough" as phones go. But this way I get a much better spare / unlocked phone, way more space, and I'm actually looking forward to the bigger screen, surprisingly.

iOS 8 is really nice, though I think they need a few point releases to work out the kinks.

[mech]

Oh and thank god they adding family sharing and the upgraded storage limits.
