Ask Slashdot: Is iOS 7 Slow?

Posted by timothy on from the mine-still-seems-hypothetical dept.

New submitter PopHollywood writes "Is iOS 7 slower than version 6? After upgrading, myself and a few others notice slow, choppy experience when scrolling, changing apps, etc. Is this common?" For those using iOS in general, what's been your experience with the new upgrade?

    A 'hard reset' is just a cold boot- it forces all apps and the OS to shut down immediately, and reboots the device. You do it by holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down.

    You seem to be referring to a Restore- that resets the device to factory settings, wiping all content. That's done through iTunes.

    And if the problems came back when your backup was restored, then obviously there was something wrong with what was restored.

    Or if you are really adventurous just stick a paper clip into your lightning connector and wiggle it around.
