iOS 7 is now available for download

[Surfer01]

I think it is about time that Apple allowed Bluetooth to be enabled via non Apple devices which is the main reason why I bought the iPad for my wife.

I was just about to moan about that when I found the thread and this post! Thanks. BTW Where can we get a list of "new" things added with this version?

iPhone downloaded easily and fast. iPad gave me a repeated "unavailable at this time" message, so I used iTunes, and that was fine. Problem is that the visuals don't grab me, particularly the new app group icons, which are pants. There is a touch of junior school about the colour schemes too, but no doubt I'll get used!

Hi
Just got your email and did the upgrade on my ipad 4 but don't like the graphics change all the artwork had depth but now has none and although I've only had the upgrade a few minutes I can't see any advantage, can I change back to ios6.

It kept giving me the message "You do not have permission to access this" but eventually I got it.

This doesnt work for me, do you have to hold the app down a bit?

It's realy cool update but I think it's slow !!

I think it's slower. I managed to install on my iphone but it won't let me get past the terms and conditions on my husbands ipad, it won't let me agree to them, HELP

I wound up doing my update on iTunes. Note to those of you who'd rather not have the 4-digit passcode, be careful to click the miniscule-fonted link to decline that option because if you don't & enter said passcode (I mistakenly thought it was for the phone's locator) you don't get to turn it off. I suppose I could try resetting the phone but not really dying to do that.

Anyone running iOS 7 on a 3rd Generation iPad, I have a Jailbroken iPad… just wanna check and see if its worth it.

Works fine for me :-D

Updated iPhone 5 and iPad last night OTA... downloads fine, but prob getting updates started... had to powercycle both devices then updated fine. Loving the parallax effect, animations and new control panel. First impression of new app icons, and especially folder icons, is that they feel too flat and washed out... prob cos I'm used to brighter icons on bold dramatic wallpapers... gonna take me a while to get used to them and find new appropriate wallpapers :-D

My husband thinks his iPad is slower too.

My d/load went in smoothly and appears to be just dandy.

I think the update added speed to my Ipad. I notice a difference

I downloaded 7 to my iPad mini last night. It took over an hour to finally get it all done. I have Cox cable and a router. My minipad is connected via wireless to the internet. The update itself dl'd pretty quickly but once on the ipad it took long time to finally get it up and running. I guess there are lot's of changes and new stuff on the ios7. Anyway it finally finished and I have used it a little and like it so far. So if you dl it to a minipad be sure and make sure you have lot's of time and patience.
Anyway that's my experience so far and hope yours goes faster.
