"Can someone explain in mr not so technical language what ios7 will do!!!" Different flatter interface and recoding of some parts of the OS so the new iPhone 5S can utilise its new chip architecture and there tends to be a tighter coding for existing iPhones (ie some apps MAY be quicker when the developers update the apps) | |||
