Boy iOS 7 sucks

Downloading now for iPhone 4. Weighs in at 158mb, let's hope it does indeed improve things as they say it will.

Don't expect too much. 4 is dated now. 7 should never have been released for the 4 or alternatively 6.1.x should still be signed for the 4 for folk not prepared to sacrifice performance for relevance.
 
Working fine so far, my keyboard on the iPad is so much more responsive.
 
Getting more app crashes than ever now - hope developers get new versions out soon.

That's odd....

Did you setup as a new device or restore from backup? Former is always advisable...

OTA. Just one or two apps that are randomly crashing, overall I'm pleased with the update. It made the world of difference on my kids ipad3.

Agreed. I have 6.1.3 on my 4 but my wife inadvertently 'upgraded' to 7 by accident. But happy to report she says after a day of use it is more zippy and responsive. She says it's a definite improvement.

I would like rather see if there is improvement to 6.1.3. :)

What should be done (at minimum) to be able revert to 6.1.3? Is saving BLOBS (whathever is called) enough?

There was another thread on downgrading somewhere and yes, it was all about saved blobs. No such luck for my wife's iPhone but I never 'upgraded' in the first place. No way will I try it either, even now ;)

Yes. iPhone 4, jail broken if you save your blobs you can downgrade using a tool such as ifaith and a process called stitching together a custom rom.
 
The itunes store thing still sucks though. Unlike the iOS 5 version where you could browse the most recent apps by category as far as back you wished, that's not possible anymore. It's an iOS 6+ problem though.
