I don't have any comments except with your issue #5. There are
definitely new features in IOS 7 such as iTunes Radio, the Control
Center, multiple pages in folders, the hand writing input method, more
things you can do with Siri and quite a bit more. You may not use these
features yourself, or you may not think they're worth upgrading to get
to, but they are there.

Hi, try not to get discouraged. There are some very new things and very new
ways to do things in the iOS 7. I think once you get used to them you will like
it. I understand your concerns, and I am not criticizing you at all. You have a
right to express yourself. As for voiceover, there is a new option in the
voiceover settings that allows you to silence the voice over sounds. You can
include this in the rotor so that you can use it anytime you like. The problems
you discussed are definitely bugs, and I hope Apple will fix them. There is an
action option on the rotor and if you select that you might be able to move
through your screens more easily. I am not sure about that one. I would
recommend that you get Jonathan Motson's book. It is called I OS 7 without the
eye it is a great book and gives lots of information about how to use new
features with voiceover in iOS 7. God bless, Wren PS I have the book, and I
have found it very helpful. There is also a new thing in the iOS 7 operati
ng system called containers. I have to learn to use them by reading the book.
If you would like any more help please feel free to write me off list if you
would like and I will be glad to help you

personally, i do not recommend updating to IOS7. i did on my iphone 5 and here
is what i dislike about it. i know some may disagree and that is fine.
sometimes people attack you when you dare criticize the GREAT APPLE!
problems i have in IOS7
1. slower. i have noticed on my iphone 5 voice over seems to run slower. it
seems to be more sluggish on speech and flicking through applications. the
phone also takes a half or more of a second to lock when i click the lock
button.
2. voice over sounds are different. on the ipad voice over, voice over would
always make a sound when you flick from different frames or areas on the page.
for example, if you are on an ipad and in the messages application, try
flicking from the message display area down into the text message box where you
type new messages. you do this by flicking right. on the ipad voice over always
made a unique noice indicating that you have gone into a new area of the
screen. the iphone voice over never did this. well, on the new IOS 7 it now
does. this annoying
3. the side switch no longer silences flicking sounds. on IOS 6 the switch
above the volume buttons would silence the clicks made on voice over when one
flicks left or right. on the new IOS7 this switch has no effect on the special
clicks and noises associated with voice over.
4. voice over looses focus. i have noticed, and perhaps it is just me, that
voice over sometimes looses focus on where you were last on the screen. it is
difficult to explain and perhaps i am the only one who has this problem. but,
sometimes when i am flicking right down a page, voice over appears to jump back
to the top or loose focus in some other manner. voice over was always
completely stable in IOS6 and i never had this problem. nor did i ever have
voice over read previously read aloud text at the wrong time when such text was
not being selected and should not have been read. again, difficult to explain.
but, i do not believe voice over is as stable as it used to be
5. finally, i dont see any real feature enhancements. without any real
enhancements i wouldnt update. just my recommendation
