Hmmm. Took an hour and a half on my 4S. Seems stable, but I haven't a clue what the Health app is about.

I seriously don't get why we have to get so excited about latest iOS updates, from my experience all it does is give you a couple of novelty features which you'll use a few times then forget about, takes up more room on your non expandable memory and slows the device down.

I guess the health app is something to do with the new iWatch gadget.

It's not so much what the OS does for you directly, but what it enables apps to do.

Managed to get it installed last night, started at 7pm, took about an hour to down load and about a further 1.5 to install, was so long as my internet was down and I had to find some signal to verify the update.

Quick type seems ok, but still trying to get used to it.

Not tried the health app and probably won't to be fair

"No Thanks!" ;)

I'm still on iOS 6 something on my 4S 32gb. Nothing wrong with it. Does not take up as much memory and does not use as much juice.

iOS7 turned her same phone into a battery hog. She D/L'd 8 last night and started making noises about wanting a new one. Feck. :rolleyes:

I tried again via itunes and it said 6 hours. Tried it over wifi on the same connection and it now says 4 minutes. WTF?

I think I shall wait for a few opinions before I take the plunge. 7 seems fine for now.

Mine downloaded and installed in about 20mins last night! Could be unrelated as I have used my phone quite a bit today but my battery decreased very quickly (10% by 3.30) will report back in a few days :/

They have deleted the 0 before the hour on the 12 hour clock! I knew there was something different about it

Why have I got photos in my collection which aren't in my albums? I don't get it

How do you mean?

I'm not sure which thing you are asking about so I'll answer both

The clock has changed from 09:30am to 9:30am

If I go in to my photos, in the Years/collections/moments section, all my photos are there. But in the Albums section it only has 13 of my "Recent" pics and is missing all of my previous pics except ones that happen to be panoramas or videos

Not noticed the clock before, with the photos it has done the same for me, but it may have been that way before I never used the albums view till just now!

Yeah I'll wait until it's on about 10 before considering updating, they should've sorted all the bugs out by then.
