    I agree; iOS7 is devoid of colour, except the icons on the home screen.

    I upgraded my iPhone 5 to IOS 7 last week, and I think its makeover has a fresher feel.

    Two visuals I don't like:
    1. The "Music" icon on the bootom panel needs to be another colour than red.
    2. The background of the groups/folder icons is a dull flat colour (eg. grey on the default black wallpaper); it needs a bit of perking up or maybe transparency.

    I'm not a total fan of the "going flat" fashion on phones, but the iPhone's interpretation is a gazillion times better than Windows phone 8.

    I guess the test for me is that I also have an older iPhone 3GS, and I was slightly disappointed to find that it is not upgradeable. That implies I must've wanted to!

    Can you let us know where to change the settings? On my iPhone 5, I can't find one...

    .

    Sorry my friend lied to me...I don't know how to change it.

    My 4s seems to be running apps slower these days. I wonder if the processer is up to running 7.

    Re the new update meaning you can block numbers I don't think the numbers are actually blocked as I've blocked a few numbers and although my phone is not ringing when they try to call me they are able to leave a voicemail message so its not blocking them entirely - I just can an alert to say I have a voicemail message without my phone actually having rung.

    The iPhone has no control over voicemail, which is functionality within the network, not within the iPhone.

    I wouldn't have upgraded to iOS7 if I had an iPhone 4. Its optimised for the 5 and I wouldn't be surprised if the 4 struggles.
