 Are you waiting for verision of Apple's mobile operating system? The next version of Apple's mobile operating system, iOS 7, is now available.  In Apple's words this is "the most significant iOS update since the original iPhone." Not only does the next iteration of the OS bring a completely overhauled user interface design, it also adds many missing features that were being offered by rival mobile platforms.  
You'll be able to get it free of charge if your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch supports it and get an almost new device, in terms of software. 
 
So how do you go about updating it? What are the things that you should keep in mind before updating?  
 
I. Does your device support iOS 7?  

iOS 7 is supported by iPhone 4, iPhone 4S and iPhone 5; iPad 2, third and fourth-generation iPads, iPad mini; and the fifth-generation iPod touch. Also, certain features of iOS may not be available on all devices. For instance, the iPhone 4S doesn't support features like AirDrop and live filters in the camera app. The iPad 3 also doesn't support AirDrop. 
 
II. Backing up your device 
If you don't regularly backup the data on your iPhone or iPad, now is a good time. You'd like your favourite apps and settings to transition to iOS 7 and for that you'll need to take a backup.
