That's a fucking shitty thing to do.
I find it rather educational.

Somehow the music player got worse. More clicks and more stuff to scroll through.
Actually, they've added a lot more clicks around places, like iMessage and Photos.
I'm sorry if it has been discussed already, but is anyone having a problem with the screen staying lit when the device is not being used? It's happened at least a couple of times on my iPod touch.
Today, for instance, the screen was still turned on when I got back to my room after taking a shower.

Hahaha, damn.
Sometimes (most of the time) people make up shit on twitter for comedic effect, but newspapers seem completely oblivious to this.
While true, there is also a shocking amount of technical illiteracy (despite the tired assertions that this generation is somehow composed of technically-literate superpeople.)
I'm inclined to believe some went for it and tried it simply because they lack the immediate check of "hey, wait, software can't actually do that…"

I would check the Auto-Lock setting first.
Auto-lock is set to one minute, so that can't be it. I'm sure nobody was playing with it, so the screen must have stayed on for 15 to 20 minutes.

When the only computer class most schools teach is a Typing class, and if you're lucky, Microsoft Office, what can you expect? A computer science 101 and programming class should be required in every school.

Been hearing that people are getting texts to/from the wrong people in their contacts and the common element is ios7.
Nope.
The only other similar instance I've managed to come across was a user on MacRumors reporting that the screen on his iPhone 5 would stay lit after notifications. I can't remember the other two times, but there was no notification on my iPod when I got back in my room.
I don't know if it's related, but I just picked it up and noticed both the notification and the control center don't show up when I make the respective gestures.

Think that I heard about that waterproof thing before, maybe in one of the earlier iOS updates (as a sick joke, not as a real thing)
I think it's a different cause but if I try to facetime my sister over my wifi iPad, it also rings her husband even though I am contacting her via her phone number, not the email address.
iOS 7 is utter pants the more I use it.

I was having problems with a bunch of music showing up that I did not want. Even after turning off the options for showing purchases and cloud music. Figured out that I had to go to General>Usage and wait for the Music folder to pop up and delete the whole thing. That wiped all music but not the app and allowed me to add all my music again without having the stuff I didn't want.

Having problems with the weather app also, default location refuses to update. And something is wrong with playing music through Bluetooth, sounds all "tin-ey".

i think it might be the app. I dont think it updated yet. But it was quite annoying listening to a podcast and getting text messages and then it would stop when i checked the message

Is it possible to go back to 6? The keyboard thing is killing me.

I'm betting they stopped authing iOS 6 by this point, so probably not.

Playlists > Genius Playlist.
It pays to dig around a bit before freaking out
I can't find it there. I've clicked on every option, button, EVERYTHING. This is very annoying. I hope they didn't make genius US only for some reason...
They didn't, because I'm not in the US.
It's in the create menu on the now playing screen.

And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?
No!

What is the keyboard thing?
It's not foolproof!
