Turning off Apps is no longer a simple tap.
The swipe up does not always work, so I must redo it two or three times.
That may be OK for young folk, but quickly turns into muscle-strain for me.
This nicely compliments the eye-strain from the new iPad layout.
Apple should remember that Baby Boomers will soon outnumber them.
Using the heretofore interoperable Calendar on both iPad & iCloud as an example for my preliminary analysis:
The pastel colors are pasty, not vibrant as in iOS 6. The ruled lines (from TOD on left to event) are too faint to see.
The text strokes are too narrow to read. But with the BOLD option in my iOS 7 settings, the text is no longer sharp.
These calendar layouts are now all but unreadable (for my less than young eyes).
Worse, the icons now look shallow and cheap. I no longer have Pride of Ownership in these devices that as I had last week.
Given this week's degradation, I would not have switched from Android to Apple.
I trusted you guys (Apple), and am consequently sorely disappointed.
Trusting in the Steve Jobs Legacy, I eagerly upgraded both of my Apple iPads (2nd & 3rd gen) to iOS 7.
But I was sorely disappointed. The quality is not what we have come to expect from Apple.
I learned long ago not to update my MicroSoft packages with such reckless abandon.
Luckily, I have not yet "upgraded" my iPhone 4S. And I still have my Android.
I would pay a premium to restore my iOS 7 devices to iOS 6, so they are once again east to read.
