I've never hated iOS 7....even when I first started seeing the previews from the devs & beta testers. I actually couldn't wait to have it on my phone !! Now that I have it, I love the overall user experience and functionality of it. Is it a major change going from ios6 to 7....sure, and I do understand some people will need an adjustment period. If your one of those people, give it time, and at the same time, ask yourself what it is that you hate so much about it....you may find just minor things that will just take getting used to. If your unable to adjust, you can always look into other platforms that wil suit your needs and that you'll like the appearance of the OS as well.
