So twice I've noticed now on my 5C that the slide to unlock wouldn't go all the way during a slide, thus not unlocking the phone. The only fix I was able to find was power down and reboot. Anyone else notice this?

Some times I have to press the home button twice to unlock. But Touch ID recognition seem to be improved.

Haven't noticed that on my 5S
Good Luck

-I've had a lot of app freeze/lag. I notice it happening sometimes when I press an app to open. It lightens to acknowledge the touch and then remains in that state for a time before finally opening if it opens at all.

- accelerometer sometimes is unresponsive when changing phone orientation.

- apps freeze when reopening. Mostly notice this in Safari. I open the app and can't scroll the page for a few seconds. Can't even close with home button.

-sometimes have to press home button twice to close an app.

These are a few of the bugs I've noticed.

After updating I have noticed a blue band about 1.9 cm thick running horizontally, back and forth, across the screen of my iPad Air. I've seen this when playing Infinity Blade III and Injustice. The blue band also appears briefly when I used Mail app, Safari and when reading PDFs in GoodReader. Restarted the iPad Air twice. Still persists. No issues on the iPhone 5s though.

Do a factory reset,see if it helps and chances are it will definitely help :)

My 5s was on the charger all night and I just noticed it's only at 95%. It's my first full charge on 7.1. Anyone else seeing that?

Has anyone else noticed their GPS seems to stay on all the time? I've closed down all apps and its still on?!?
Do you have Yahoo Weather installed? Have it set to check your current location? That was the culprit for me when I noticed the GPS/location services icon on more than it was before... I turned off Current Location in the Yahoo app - GPS icon went away.

I just figured it out. It wasn't iOS7, but an issue with Foursquare. Even without the app running it is still accessing the GPS (Location Service). I noticed that it had an update ready to be installed. Updating the app didn't seem to work either. So deleted the app until that bug is squished.

I had the same issue on my iPhone prior to the update. I restored the device and its been fine since.
