I've been using iOS7 since Beta 2, and I still hate it.

I don't like the look, but this might be personal. So putting this aside, to me iOS7 is actually harder to use. The flat buttons (which are just labels now) are harder to press. I do not know if this is psychological since they appear smaller, or is it that the target area is actually smaller now. Toggles are grayed out in their off state, so they appear disabled, as in "you are not supposed to be pressing it now" (see Speaker control in the Voice Memos app).

There are also a lot of other things they changed during the redesign for worse from my perspective. For example: in the Voice Memos app I used to be able to record and play back a sequence quickly. Now * I stop recording a sample * Press Done * Am forced to label it (why!!) * Expand the memo I just recorded (why is it collapsed - I am still working on it) * Hit play

I record 20+ samples a day I need to listen to quickly, and this is so frustrating.

There are other things like this throughout the OS. In calendar for example you can't expand the Notes on the meeting, so god forbid someone puts important meeting information there.

It seems to me like people at Apple actually stopped using their phones. These little things scream at you once you actually try to get something done.

I had issues with the controls that appear during a phone call. I've been an iPhone user since day 1, but the borderless buttons made me hesitate and hunt around for the button I actually wanted to press. Apple fixed this in Beta 4 or 5 and I feel much better about it.

I still find the Repeat/Shuffle buttons confusing in Music.app and I hope they gets fixed before GM.
