iOS 7.1 is live

Re: iOS 7.1 has been released

I had that issue this time, and never had it prior to this one. I think it was just due to everyone hammering the server. I started trying an hour before leaving work, and used the WIFI for the office downstairs. It was about 3/4 of the way done with the "preparing update" thing when I had to leave, and lose my WIFI, so I thought "ok well it'll pause and I'll finish later at home." Well, it kept going. And as I drove to my appointment it was still finishing the install. Which surprised me..

Anyway...the only changes I noticed right away besides the button changes/design changes are that it undid all my settings, as usual, and that it's kind of killing my battery. Otherwise I haven't noticed a lot.

You only need wifi to download it, you can install it while on 3G/4G/LTE, I recommend to have a strong and fast data connection though for when the iPhone is verifying update with apple's servers.

Finally, finally, FINALLY iOS 7 feels as snappy as iOS 6 did! I turned my reduce motion back to off and the transitions are way, way faster.

your iPhone Model? 4 or 4s?

Did iOS 7 used to darken on the Touch ID finger when you had that finger placed on the home button? I never noticed it before if it did

Re: iOS 7.1 has been released

A couple weeks ago I found a wall per fix app that solved the issue of not being able to resize your own photos for either lock or home screen. It seems Apple May have fixed that with the new update. I was able to resize any photos from general setting without of the app I bought

The new keyboard look is nice.

Looks and runs great on the 5. I told my boyfriend to update his 4 (he's the type use a phone into it falls apart). He has complained about it lagging here and there so I'll see what he says afterwards.

The love the bold letters on the keyboard, the option to darken colors and the snappier animations. I turned them off for a little while but I'm glad to have to them back

My airdrop is not responding very well.By this I mean, it doesn't work. Can anyone confirm if it is working for them on iPhone 5S?

Mine works occasionally but I haven't updated from the beta yet. Hopefully it'll work better with the public version.

Is it just me or did Apple tweak the audio codec in iOS 7.1 a bit?

Any one notice the short jarring jolt of a vibration that happens every time a message is received in iMessage while using the app? It was a longer vibration in 7.0 and it didn't bother me but the short jolt in 7.1 just annoys the heck out of me.

Through settings I was able to disable vibration when iMessage is closed but I'd prefer the opposite! Stop jolting me with a vibration when I can see that a message came.

Inspired by the following quote, "You should never prompt the user for something that the computer can figure out on its own."

You shouldn't bug the user with vibrations if the user is actively using the app. Unless they're playing Operation.

Anyone know how to turn this off?

So far 7.1 has made my phone feel so much quicker and more responsive. The tweaks to the icons and graphics puts just enough of a shine on the package. No big complaints here. The only down side I see is that incoming caller photos do not take up the whole screen now. They are small icons and in the right hand corner of the screen. I used to like seeing a huge photo of the caller.

Somehow the battery life has increased drastically as well. I'm now running on almost a day, and I'm still at 45%...amazing...

I noticed that they took the vibration option out from the alarm in the Clock.app

Yes it's quite shocking isn't it.

Battery life is great for me also. Only complaint is that control center and notification center lag on the lock screen a little on my 4S
