it's only for some China phones.
And some European phones.
"The update, which arrives as Build 11B601, is only available for some models of the iPhone 5s and 5c sold in China and some European/Asia Pacific iPhone models compatible with China's networks"
I don't like how they implemented the disappearing navigation bar in Safari. I prefer tapping the bottom of the screen to make it appear over scrolling up, but I feel uncomfortable to do so when there's an ad at the bottom of the screen, despite knowing I won't actually tap it.
On my old 3GS, I had a jailbreak tweak that allowed me to toggle fullscreen mode by simply tapping twice and then holding for a second - I miss that.

Man, pressure sensitive capacitive surfaces exist. I would put it on apple to release one that only has only two states of sensitivity. thats such an apple move that would solve so many problems. that would open up a galaxy of new interactions while only adding one layer of complexity. thats how id do it.

This is possibly not just an IOS7 Safari thing, but I'll give it a go here just in case:
Does anyone else frequently get signed out of the mobile version of neogaf? Every time it happens (and reverts me to the hideous 'light' theme), all I need to do is click a link within GAF to go to a new page and then find my way back and I'll be signed back in (eg: click prev page, then click next page), but it's incredibly annoying - especially on train journeys with patchy net coverage.

No, but I use the "hideous" light theme all the time.
You have private browsing on.

Nope, I really don't. Like I said, it's intermittent. Like 3-4 out of every 10 page links I click on gaf will log me out (but only until I change the page).
I have no idea what I'm looking for here.THEY FIXED IT, THEY ACTUALLY FIXED IT!
YES!

I'm guessing the period.

What's the context for this? Is it in a browser? Text messages? I've never noticed the period missing when I needed it. Though I usually double space to period. Still, what context is this keyboard being used in?
And does the white background mean anything? Because I really like that transparent keyboard at the top. I'd hope it's not gone.
I can't wait for 7.1 to drop. As well as 10.9.2.
That keyboard is present nowon the home screen. Just swipe down to open the search box.
Though the shift key looks different.

The shift/caps lock key.
I admit it may have been kind of obscure which mode the shift key was in, but I do't think it's any MORE clear this way. I'm indifferent.
Also, I hate that fullstop/period button. Making the space button smaller actually annoys me and makes it harder to type.

Please don't make us wait until March for 7.1 Apple !
Maybe Apple will be merciful and release it late this month.

All it took was Gruber harping on it for 2 months.
No.

All the time, and it's super annoying.
I'm really hoping Apple throws us a bone and we get either 10.9.2 within the next week.
Have you tried a different pair of headphones?
Often stuff with pausing is just dust in the jack. Get a light and take a look and give it a hard blow.
I've kind of tried different headphones. Mine are definitely a bit messed up. I use them on my 3DS and computer, they still cut out sometimes, but are much better than when used on my iphone.
I'll try doing that. Thanks man.
It was an example. Lol. I already know the movies he's in jeez. But yeah, I still do it even this far off of the launch of 7.

I don't think you can transfer iPhone to iPad. iCloud backups seem to treat them completely separate. And if it did, it'd transfer the apps to the iPad version if it was a universal app. Otherwise you'll get a blown up iPhone version.
Did you check it for dust? On more than one occasion I've had to have a clean out in there - I just use a straightened paper clip to hook it all out.
I think it's just mimicking the rest of the OS, where swiping to the left reveals a delete.
Good point.
Something I've been meaning to ask for awhile now. To people using the 7.1 betas: Have they brought back deleting all songs off an album or from an artist in the Music app? It annoys the shit out of me that ever since iOS 7 I have to connect to a computer in order to easily delete large amounts of songs off my iPhone.

I've just got my iPad Air. Awesome! But Evernote doesn't work. It hangs so I have to restart the tablet.
Why do you want to use Evernote on your Air?

To read my notes and because Swiftkey wants to use Evernote to sync its data.
Geez, I just noticed some kind of light bleeding (or whatever the correct term is) on my iPad's screen. At the bottom of the screen, a bit left of the center, there's a brownish/yellowish spot. It's only noticeable when the screen is displaying black and all lights are off.
It's a 3rd gen iPad which I've had since its release, and I've never noticed this. I'm actually quite sure this wasn't there before, but is this even possible? I mean, I assumed problems like light bleeding, IPS glowing and such are caused during manufacturing and don't simply appear after some time of use - or after misuse. But even if I'm wrong, what could have caused this? I'm very careful with all my devices.
edit: Another issue, though this one is luckily a software problem. When I rotate the iPad - again while it's displaying something black - I can see a weird pixelated white border around the content during the rotation animation. I managed to make a screenshot:
There are just a few white dots in the picture, but that's because the border is flickering.

You might be careful but others may not be, I had some light issues appear on my old iPhone right before I switched.
