Sell your iPad; don't update. It's laggy and just eats through battery.

How long does it take for the Today traffic estimations to kick in? I've been on the golden master for about a week and it still hasn't started.
Both my parents, and my iPad 3 had Bluetooth turned on after the update -- not sure if that is having any effect (I noticed I was draining a bit faster, but have since turned off Bluetooth, but haven't really checked the battery tonight).

I'm on iPad 2 and apart from some lag when I go to home screen it works pretty well. The swipe to go to previous page in safari alone is worth the upgrade.

For some reason when I go into the artists tab in the music app none of the mixtapes i've downloaded onto my phone show up. I can find the songs when i go into the songs tab but they're not there under the albums tab. Anyone have this same problem/know a solution? Everything seems to be labeled properly from what I can tell
It goes by album artist. They're all under unknown artist until you update their info in the desktop version of iTunes.
It's pretty annoying since the distinction between artist and album artist seems pointless.

iOS7 for iPhone 5, YES or NO guys?
I've been hearing issues with the battery drain, so still debating if I should install it.

Yes, there's no significant battery drain for me, runs smooth as butter.
Absolute yes. I havent noticed any drop or improvement in battery life.
It drains battery faster for sure. It's still up in the air whether that's just a facto of life with the new features, whether there's a bug causing excessive drain, or whether you can just turn off the bigger drain features and it will be fine.
I still say yes.

Alright, will do it now. I already have it on the iPad 4 and I don't seem to have much issues with it.
Thanks.

I really like 7 on the iphone 5. Works really well and I dig the new features.

I installed it on my iPhone 4. Make sure to do a complete wipe then install it. Its laggy the first couple of hours, and now its smooth as butter!
Absolutely. I've read similar complaints about battery life with every single iOS update I've followed so I tend to ignore them. I haven't noticed much of a difference on my iPhone 5, anyway.
I'm just hesitant about updating my iPad 3. I think I'll hold off on that one.
I've found that turning off Background App Refresh and autoupdates on the App Store help improve battery life.
I also read on Macrumors that resetting all settings on the iPad 3 before installing iOS 7 is supposed to fix all the lag problems. I'm gonna try it tomorrow,

They should really make these transitions interruptible. It seems so wrong that you have to wait for task manager cards to stop moving completely before you can tap on one of them so that it would show that app.

This new OS has been out for what? Less than 48 hours? I had to deal with a bunch of customers already asking me if there's a way to go back to the old OS. Seems a few people hate it.
I just put it on my iPad 3. It's laggy as shit. I'm hoping it does sort itself out after a few hours like someone on here said, if not I may sell it. It's really annoying.
On the plus side I've been using it for half an hour now and my battery still says 100%. Impressive.

Well look at that... I just noticed (as I went to multitasking to check out what you said) that the title bar in the little screen shots is actually live. That is it updates with the time, signal strength, battery etc. you would've thought it'd be easier to just have that capture as part of the screen grab as opposed to render a mini version for those that had then.
Also, If you open the camera app then bring up the task switcher. The camera preview remains live and the camera will continue to auto focus.

Does anyone know how to shut the weather updating notification noise off? I can't seem to find it in settings. Every time the weather updates, it makes a 'ding' sound to let me know it's began updating and then another 'dung' sound to let me know it's finished updating itself.
It's starting to get annoying, since it's every 15 minutes or so.

That's strange. That's never happened to me.
I wouldn't even know how to turn something like that on.
I'm sure this is old news, but I fucking hate the new folders. I put a bunch of apps in folders so I can reduce swiping between pages. That's moot now if I have to swipe inside folders. Grr.
Otherwise my initial impression of 7 is petty positive. I'll need to find a replacement for the way too bright notes app, but mainly I'm just annoyed I have to rearrange everything, somehow, to reduce swiping. Maybe it's time I just delete a bunch of this shit...

iOS 7 officially a failure. Time to pack it up Apple.

Yes.
It was too crash-prone to release. If Apple gets it sorted out I imagine we'll see it again in 7.1 or something.
It's good. iOS 7 is mostly a complete improvement over iOS 6 but it doesn't quite run as smooth as it.
Pfft, no, I've done a fresh factory restore on the thing and it's still nowhere near what it should be.

I've installed it on an iphone 4, is there any way to reduce the transitions between actions? It seems to make my phone choke with all the zooms and scaling!
Also are they updating OSX soon? Switching between Notes on my phone and Mac it looks outdated already!!

So now it's not so laggy running iOS7 on my iPhone 5, very strange since I did all the common fixes shutdown, hard restart, reset, tested connection speed test etc. Just wondering if it was one of the not updated yet apps that slowed it down with a bug or what was going on since I was at the point of thinking to downgrade back to iOS6 if they still had the option, but thankfully now it's running smoother.
Ya I like the old folder style. I at least wish they had more apps per folder page.

My iPad 3 seems to be running just fine. It did chug when I switched wallpapers, but my keyboard is fine and screen rotation speeds are fine.
iPhone 5 seems great. I haven't noticed a drop in battery life (was already shitty to begin with) and everything is very snappy. One thing that I really don't like about the new Music app is when searching for specific albums/songs by artist if you have, say, a dozen or so albums by that one person/band. I have every single Green Day and NOFX album loaded up, but if I want to play a song from 21st Century Breakdown I have to scroll waaaaay down to the bottom. There needs to be a way to collapse the individual songs and just search by album. iTunes also does this now and I fucking hate it.

It runs like shit. I can't believe Apple has rendered an iPad useless that is not very old at all. It really sucks and I wish I could downgrade. I'll definitely be getting the iPad 5 whenever it comes out.
I had to laugh at your last sentence. I'm looking to offload my 3 and pick up a retina mini, myself.

I tried selling my 64GB LTE iPad 3 on Craigslist right when the 4 was announced out of nowhere and all I got were lowbal offers like $200 and shit. This fucking thing cost $800+ new.
