Energy time I try and scroll up the page here it keeps bringing up that new pull up menu from the bottom. Must be my fat thumb. Also, when I answered a text message from my wife, it sent a copy of it to me? I hope it didn't go to all my contacts, or they might all be over for dinner tonight.

Since the company loaned me an IPAD and makes me carry it I can say that IOS 7 is a very embarrassing ripoff of Droid 4.2.

If so, seems like the functions have been combined. When I go to the URL bar and put spaces between words it goes into automatic internet search mode.
No. When you swiped from left to right on the homepage (moving the screen to the right), you had a search bar. Under it you had the option of searching the phone or searching the internet. Now, you swipe downward starting from just under the first row of app icons. The search bar opens up, but search the internet function is gone.

I used that function a lot. It was quite handy.

Awesome update - the old appearance was getting dated. Like getting a new phone.

I have the plain iPhone 4 and I haven't had any issues. I love it.

Also, my iPhone5 has rebooted itself a couple of times now while in the middle of using it (texting and surfing) ... same thing for my iPad. Also, I'm stuck in 1X speed mode and can't receive LTE for international data ... ssssllllllllooooooowwwww (Verizon iPhone5).

I am amazed that Apple has been able to keep such a stale OS and phone for so long. Yet, they're setting sales records for the 5S. Have these people seen the new Samsung's, HTC's, and Motorola's? I think this goes back to the brilliant marketing by Apple and that people are afraid to leave the Apple ecosystem.

For search it's actually a swipe down from the middle of the screen. Swipe down from the very top = notifications.
