Mine said that for half an hour. I was hoping it wouldn't bail on me but this shit is epic. SO worth the wait.

It loads all your apps after the update, it remembers what apps you had and where they were on the home screen btw.

Mine did all except for my mobile banking app. It booted that one screen over for Facetime so I had to put it back. Other than that, I'm very pleased.

Apple has released iOS 7 today, and iOS 7.0.1 is already in the queue for the upcoming iPhone 5s and 5c. iOS 7.0.1 reportedly aims to fix issues with Touch ID and iTunes purchases. It’s unclear if the two new devices will ship with iOS 7.0.1 on Friday, or whether buyers of those phones will be prompted to update to 7.0.1; the latter is more likely.

If you got the golden master it's 98% the same as what got released today.

The golden master is the final version so devs can test it for any last minute bugs, otherwise they release it.

My phone tells me ios is up to date. I think I have the beta 6? Sorry bad memory lol.


I have a bunch of bugs though. Apps closing, safari crashes sometimes when searching for a site, etc. I guess I will back up and restore with the newest ios7 through iTunes.

Yup, if you have a beta or GM build, you have to do the itunes install, OTA update won't work.

Itunes install doesnt tell you that there is an update. Again, you need to connect to Itunes, download the IPSW file for your device, hit shift or cmd and check for update and pick the file.

^ Hold Power and Home Button and don't let go until the Apple logo appears

Maybe a hard reset will help you. But the servers are being hammered right now.
