Full Title: iPhone users are disappointed with the iOS 7.1 software update that's draining their batteries, erasing their contacts, and flipping their keyboards

With every new I-phone software update comes the potential for problems and the iOS 7.1 released on Monday is no exception.

Customer's say it's killing their phone batteries among other pesky glitches.

The iOS7.1 is the first major update to Apple's newest operating systems for iPhones and iPads and the apple community is lamenting poor battery charges, disappearing contacts, bad Bluetooth connections, keyboards oriented the wrong way, and the list goes on, reports the Huffington Post.

Jobs dies and it seems Apple has done in to a slow spiral downward...

I updated and have not had issues so far that I am aware of.

I’m disappointed in Apple stock prices.

[null and void]

I’ve seen no compelling reason to update from iOS 6.1.3

[usconservative]

All iOS 7.1 does is add a few "cosmetic" features, very few meaningful functional changes and re-arranges a few options on the settings menu along with a Siri tweak.

NOT worth the trouble of an upgrade or losing the Jailbreak capabilities from the Evasion jailbreak.

I suspect I'm staying at iOS7 for quite some time.

I hear apple is coming out with a hockey puck shaped mouse for use with the iPhone.

Ping.

[Politicalkiddo]

Just like Disney.

[GeronL]

I haven’t noticed any difference

[RIghtwardHo]

Hmmm. I’m not having any problem and neither is my wife.

I updated and have not had issues so far that I am aware of.

I have not had any problems either, but I think maybe there is something about the battery. It is hard to tell, but none of those other things mentioned.

I had no problems, but a friend of mine posted that he lost all his contacts and he was out of town. He was pissed.

Rush had a long monologue about this on Friday’s show.

I like the update. Sorry it’s screwing up some phones.

When I first saw this update on my iPad, it seemed as if Jony had a little snit fit and decided to poke us in the eye (with BOLD) for dissing his original spare interface. “Too hard to read and navigate in Safari? Huh? How’s THIS?!?!”

"I updated and have not had issues so far that I am aware of."

Same here.

Nor have I except for the appearance of some old photos in my camera roll. Other than that no problems. The FUDsters are always PAYING to spread the lies.

It actually fixes quite a few issues, Uscon. Fonts are better, speed is much better in many ways. Snappier, to coin a much over used word. Appearance of the keyboard is far better, for example. As usual, in an iOS update, there are new features. It's worth doing. . . and it closes some security holes.

No problems here.
