Re: IOS 7 visual issues and a couple comments
Hi, I don't find turning motion off makes any difference in background lighting. One thing to note is that when there are items in the locked screen, notifications from facebook or whatever then the old dark grey with white writing is back, but once you unlock the screen the glaring light grey background returns with a vengence, there is an option under accessibility to increase contrast, but having tried it I really can't see where or in which apps it actually functions. and on other issues. I tried switching to the male voice for siri and it won't work, maybe that option isn't available in Canada? I find when switching pages even touching the page with a finger causes another page switch, or when increasing or decreasing brightness simply touching the screen after swiping adds yet another swipe even though you aren't swiping. Rather frustrating. Tessa -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VIPhone Google Group. Post a new message to VIPhone by emailing viphone@googlegroups.com.

Re: folders Re: IOS 7 visual issues and a couple comments
Hey Tessa, Folders can actually have multiple pages now so the number of apps in each is much larger. I don't know if there is a cap on how many pages a folder can have, but my games folder has 38 apps in it just as an example. I always wished that you could have multiple pages in a folder because I hated having multiple folders with the same name and now I do. I agree that having to wait for 5 seconds is a bit tedius. This is also where I notice the sensativity most when working with the screen. when I was moving apps around, sometimes it would not open the folder I wanted to move the app into, while at other times it would. Also, if the folder I wanted to move the app too, was in the first or 4th column, it would frequently switch to the previous or next page, which got a bit frustrating. It made moving apps a bit more time consuming then I was used too. I got better as I worked with it more but was surprised on how quickly the pages switched. Pages switching quickly is in complete contrast to how it was on the old IOS, at least that was my experience. I did notice that the sounds to indicate what position the app was in, doesn't appear as reliable as prior versions. Sometimes I would hear the blip and it would say, column 4, row 4 but more often then not, I didn't get any indication of where I was dragging the app to.
