“Apple’s recently introduced iOS 7.1update provides a few design changes and a couple of extra features. Here’s what you need to know to access some of these,” Jonny Evans writes for Computerworld.
“Previously you could choose to take an HDR shot or not, but it is now set as default,” Evan writes. “Some people didn’t like the new parallax effect in iOS 7, claiming it made them queasy. Apple listens to its customers and has made it possible to completely switch these off in the new OS.”
“The new OS lets you set your device up to more clearly represent the difference between buttons and text labels. You need to enable the feature,” Evan writes. “Another new feature is support for HFP Prompts.”

So I just got done disabling all of the ‘updates’, and the HDR thing doesn’t do anything on my iPhone 5.
Oh well. First world problems!
Not sure about the HDR claim. On my iPhone 5 there is still a label at the top that I can toggle on or off. Previously it was OFF and after the upgrade it was still OFF.
Same thing here, iPod too…..
It’s showing HDR auto for me (5S) which didn’t exist before
Or, you could read the documentation.
HDR auto- on is iPhone 5s only.
Yep iPhone 5 doesn’t have the hardware to make the new version of HDR possible.
OK, I can live with that until I gets me a new iPhone next year……
You need to enable a feature to have the UI make more sense. That’s as beautiful as orange/yellow on white !
I see iOS 7 is still only fit for monkeys.
Which leaves you out, amoeba brain.
There is absolutely no appreciable difference between ver. 7.0.6 for iphone 4 and 7.1 don’t waste your time like I did.
