James, I've got to agree, I haven't Updated anything myself yet, because everything that I've been Reading so far, has pretty much been a Compilation of bug after bug after bug with VoiceOver and iOS 7. Now sure I understand that with any minor or major update, there's going to be some hiccups within the OS and VO, but it just seems that as of right now, the negatives out way the positives. Maybe this will change in a near future update, However, I think for me as of right now, I'm going to stay with 6.13 until I hear of another update and some bug fixes concerning VO.
