That means that whenever you want to switch over to another app, you have to leave your current one, and either find the one you want in recents, on your home screen, or in your app drawer.
Spotlight is awesome for finding items in the stock Apple apps, but what if you want to search through the rest of the apps on your iPhone?
Normally, it's good to automatically update your apps to the latest version, but sometimes those updates take away features that you've grown to love.
Even though there are over 1.3 million apps available for Android, we normally confine ourselves to a select few for day-to-day usage.

Instead, we find ourselves constantly coming back to that small set of apps that meet almost all of our needs.

I've been playing around with iOS 7 for a while now, and for the most part, I dig it. It's a nice update for a stale OS, and there are a lot of great new features. But like any good piece of tech, there are a few things to be disliked. Some of these are big issues, and some could be considered nitpicking, but given that I'm fairly used to the older iOS 6 version, they feel big to me. Paper cuts always hurt worse than gashes.
