iOS 6 or iOS 7?

Will you update to iOS 7? iOS 7 has new features, but sports a controversial design.

EDIT:

Oh, and this is for your personal preference, not for app testing purposes.

    Whoops! Posted in the wrong section...Could a Sous Chef please move this to Miscellaneous? (and if possible, could they add a new option called "Completely Undecided"; I accidentally hit enter before I could make that option)

    Sorry! :p

    whatever you do, don't upgrade to iOS7 until GS formally supports it.

    Yeah, that's an important tip! :p

    Would the viewer / ad hocs simply not work? Or just (obviously) untested?

    If the hinting from the iOS7 slide from the WWDC2013 Keynote are true and they're planning to include an API for 3rd Party Game Controller support, how could you NOT be interested in that.. Mind you, the next big hurdle would be getting the fine folks here at GS to integrate the API so we can start making games that use Controllers.. :D

    @Socks
    Maybe we need to add a completely new option just for you! :p

    I dont know but i really hate apple's philosophy. Sue others for copying, but when they do the same, sue others again for the features others had for years..

    If I update to iOS 7 right now can I still use all my apps (like vine, garageband, kingdom rush, ext.) on my phone?

    iOS 7 for the win! :-bd

    I won't be updating my regular phone to iOS 7 at all
    its a major pain to screw with beta builds for the phone you use everyday.

    Might update my old phone to play with it but thats it

    You've got to jazz this stuff up, naked girls, trumpets, a cash prize and a picture of a sports car.

    Will update, but will wait for official release... Too good of an update to pass up, but not worth messing things up just yet.

    7 for sure - been trying it out. It's awesome. I'm hooked.

    iOS 6 Currently. I love the new design, but can't afford to have bugs and glitches on my device. When the iPad beta comes out I will definitely upgrade to iOS 7 for that device

    Well yeah I think he's talking about the beta that was released today. I can't imagine anon who wouldn't update once it goes public

    I'm downloading the beta now... Will let you guys know what happens speed-wise for my iPhone 4. It had better not be too bad. :((

    Oh noes... it's horrible :(

    iPhone 4 really is pretty bad on the speed. And I'm not all together happy with the new look, because now all the apps will have to match it.

    I always kind of liked that Apple was different than windows and android on the looks. So much for that. :(

    They definitely need to do something about the default icons in iOS 7.

    Also instead of separate activation methods for the control center and multitasking. They should make the swipe up for multitasking view, then the control pane could just be one of the cards, or be above the cards... (they could leave double press in for legacy, or could be a user selectable option) I would like this much better than double-pressing the home button for multitasking...

    Well after using it for awhile, it's not so bad. It'd actually be fine, other than some of the graphics, if it was fast enough.

    But you've got to admit... what the heck were they thinking with the Safari, Newsstand, and GameCenter icons? The others are alright.

    already upgraded to iOS7. and all my games crashes on me =) .. and i don't like the new interface even though it looks better in some areas and has nice little touches here and there.. mostly a big step backwards.. disaster..

    Enjoy the headaches to everyone who updates and can't test their games. I always update when software is supported. If you're in this to develop and test you always need to be testing on the latest official version of iOS.

    Judging by the looks of this poll I'm guessing theres gonna be whole lot of pissed off people when they realize all kinds of stuff this brand new beta is not going to work with for a a little while.

    and even more pissed when they realize they can't downgrade back to iOS6

    I'm going all the way iOS 7. This is what I've been waiting to happen for years! This is the best update ever! Also, already loaded it onto my phone. :P Well I'll have to deal with a buggy GS. :D
  • SnapFireStudiosSnapFireStudios Member Posts: 1,603
    @CodeWizard - Do you have any idea if GS will support iOS 7 before it is officially released?

    I'm upgrading to iOS 7 but only after it's officially released this fall.
