I am also, nearly positive you could only use the plus button to take pics. Now you can use both.

You could always use both.

There's a new sound when you plug the phone in to charge. I like it.

Does it go "Zapp"

It's out in the next 24 hours officially. Better off just waiting.

As a person that didnt jump on the beta bandwagon

I'm looking forward to the official release tomorrow and see what it's like on my 5...

Anybody else notice the sound is very low on ringtones and texts I have iPhone 5.

Yep. Even on the highest volume it is far too low. Should be fixed in 7.0.1 or later, I hope.

Anyone feeling nostalgic tonight? One of the best OSes I've ever used will be changed hugely in just a few hours. Think ill take some screen shots to remind me of the good days

Seriously though I've been using it since the iOS 3 days and it's been getting better and better ever since. But I'm glad to see a fresh look for it. Ill definitely miss some of the older aspects though

I usually do my updates wireless, will it be possible with this new IOS too?

Overheal · 17-09-2013 11:13pm

affirmative. as long as you're running iOS 5 or above.

Thanks for the update, I went online to see if I could update my ipad but the only available version was 6.1.3.

It's nothing to do with overloading the servers? It's simply timezones. Looks like the whole world gets it at the same moment.
10am at Apple HQ is 6pm Dublin.

^^ dead right..I had just copied and pasted it from another site which thought that

Anyhoo 6pm we are go..unless you're already on ios7

Very very nice and I like it.

maximoose · 18-09-2013 9:38am

really like the sbsettings-esque menu, it's about bloody time.

iniall · 18-09-2013 11:22am

iCloud website got an iOS 7-style facelift today as well.

iTunes 11.1 has been released but not available as an update for me. Also had a few app updates waiting on my devices to be updated and they've no disappeared. Seems to be a few glitches ahead of the release.

Qwerty Dub · 18-09-2013 5:47pm

Given an iPad 2 is the oldest device that takes the IOS7 update would people recommend holding off to see how it works for others first? any chance it will slow down the iPad and ruin the overall experience? Should I just update my iPhone 5 and hold off on the iPad 2?
