IOS 7 slow on iPhone 4? Try this trick

iOS 7 slow

Many users who own a iPhone 4 they are quite disappointed with the performance of the first version of iOS 7 for their terminal.

The most prominent problem lies in the virtual keyboard that appears on the screen, causing its response time ranges from 5 to 15 seconds in the most serious cases. This affects all the applications in which you have to write (which are not few), therefore, Apple has to pay attention to this problem to solve it as soon as possible.

While we wait for this update to arrive, many users have been able to verify that the virtual keyboard response problem is solved with a simple trick. You just have to go to the Settings menu, access the iCloud section and disable the "Documents and data" option.

People who have tried this method she is very happy with the result since your iPhone 4 has gone from being an undesirable terminal to working normally. It is clear that the fault is not the iPhone 4 but iOS 7 but hey, we are in a very early phase of his life and it is normal that there are errors that will disappear in the coming weeks.

Still, keep in mind that the iPhone 4 it is the oldest terminal that can install iOS 7 and therefore its hardware is quite limited to move the system with the same fluidity that it offered in previous versions. This Apple knows and that is why many of the functions of iOS 7 have had to be deactivated in this model, a price that must be paid to be able to enjoy one more year of updates.

    IOS 7 on my iPhone 4 restored and configured as new, it goes well, just like iOS 6. I do not understand those people who say that it is fatal.

    1.    dennis said

      Mine is like this, wrong: /, as described above in the story

    2.    Carlos said

      Mine has become a partition, the movement on the reel is very slow, sometimes it moves so slowly that instead of scrolling, click on the photo and you have to return to the reel, ok, my iphone is 4, I must go to 5 but why does apple send an update to a computer that does not support it? to force us to throw away the equipment ??

  2.   Undesirable said

    Undesirable? That alone is already undesirable? What a thing! Now it is undesirable because of a keyboard or like the other guy's article that the iPhone 5 is already undervalued, they pass!

    It may be undesirable if it takes a minute to write a sentence in which there are only 12 characters. It is a failure even though it seems that apple is impossible to have them.

    I have an iPhone 4 and the only thing I've seen that goes super slow is the Reminders app. Fatal to be able to work fast. I had to install Calendars 5, which works very well for me.

    I have exactly this same problem with the slow keyboard, on my ipod touch 5G (ios 7) but I have the option that they say about iclound disabled in itself, how do I solve it? Would it have to be the opposite and actually activate it? please help!

    Gentlemen, if it goes slow, restore and set up like a new iPhone. This solves almost all problems. I did it 2 times on my iPhone 5 and it goes smoothly

    1.    notary said

      If I set it as a new iPhone, then can I download the contacts from iCloud easily?

      All the best

    2.    Carlos said

      have you had to do it with an iphone 5 ?? I thought that problem only had it those of us who have iPhone 4 and not a newer

    Does anyone know why I do not get notifications in the "notification center" ??? I have activated in the notification center whatsaap, messages, mail, ... and they do not come out, iPhone 4, thank you.

      That happened to me today with LINE. I upgraded to iOS 7 yesterday, and realized this noon that LINE notifications were not reaching me. However, it has been to open LINE (I had not opened it since before the update) and I have received the messages. Then I asked to be sent, I closed LINE from multitasking and locked the iPhone, and the notifications got through to me. Now if everything fails you, maybe there is another problem 🙁

    I have a 4s and it is slow to enter SETTINGS, and within settings it is slow to enter any of the options, I already try to restore and configure as new but it remains the same: S

    1.    Caro said

      Hi Juan, I'm in the same position as you. Restore the iphone 4S and I do not notice you change. I'm disappointed

      1.    JuanR said

        : Yes I am also disappointed, I do not understand why that happens if I restore the phone from scratch. The worst thing is that I can't get someone to help me, you are the first person I read that this also happens to him

  9.   notary said

    Well, it suits me perfectly

    Yesterday I updated my iPhone 4 using iTunes (I updated, I did not restore, that is with everything I already had), and I have not noticed any slowdown on the keyboard or have had any problems. It is true that it is a little less fluid than iOS 6, but it is nothing important and believe me, compared to what happened with the iPhone 3G and its update to iOS 4 this is the glory.

    Some applications are very slow for me or they simply do not open, for example I have Fing and it does not open, I have WhatsApp and it is slow and clumsy, I have an iPhone 4 16gb of the first in Spain, restored as new, greetings.

  12.   Pauly said

    Thanks, this trick worked for me… my iPhone keyboard was super slow, I wrote and it appeared about 6 seconds after everything !!!
    but now it is solved ... thanks!

    1.    yiyi said

      the same thing happened to me 🙁

  13.   James. said

    He walks very slow ...
    It is more noticeable when you have used the iPhone 4s (for all the people who assure that it is «normal)

  14.   yiyi said

    Thank you!! Your advice helped me a lot because I was very upset and disappointed

  15.   jot said

    I had this problem, now solved with this simple 'trick'!

    thanks!

    Apple has a very aggressive obsolescence policy, and programmed. All their equipment ceases to be useful in one way or another very early, when they still have a stage of use. It does not leave them in a state where you can stay with what they do, no, they end up being heavy and useless so that you are forced to buy a new one. Why else does it take away the possibility of keeping the latest version of the applications that work on your terminal, and update them even if it is to tell you that you can no longer use them with your ios?

  17.   Pepito said

    Be careful, I've only been an Apple user for 19 years.

  18.   Leish said

    I found a solution, in fact I think it is the best solution that can be done with an iPhone 4, which is none other than to sell it as soon as possible and renew the terminal, either for an iPhone 4S or any of the competition that satisfies with the current needs that is none other than being able to open WhatsApp in a decent way, open or close applications without crashes or lags, etc. Because all those issues for which solutions are being proposed, as they will not be fixed with iOS 7.0.1 or weird milk. What Apple wants is to get rid of the iPhone 4 as soon as possible, you just have to see that it will continue to support the terminal for only 1 more sad year.

    So, the solution, then sell it and recover part of the tremendous invested expense. Against before better, because next year it will cost less and if not you will see it.

    Congratulations on the help. Now it works.

    Thank you!!!!!!!!!! my keyboard took 15 seconds per word, really thanks for the information, 2 days going through that was fatal !!!

    I have an Iphone 4 and with the update I am disappointed, but with this trick it works perfectly for me.
    Thanks for the help!!

    My iPhone 4 is slow and the ringer volume decreased significantly with ios 7, what a disappointment 🙁

  23.   jvc55555. said

    Those of you who have an iPhone4 don't even think about going to IOS7, you practically charge your iPhone and there is no way to go back… go Apple shit… How can they do this to us with what an iPhone is worth ??? insane. I will not buy anything from Apple again unless they solve it, with what it is worth it is a scandal.

    I have gone from iOS 5.1 to iOS 7.04 and very happy I recommend it, at the moment I did not jailbreak and the battery lasts longer than I recommend it before. Those of you who are doing badly, have you restored it and recovered the backup?

    Unfortunately, Apple equipment has long ceased to be the high-performance machines of years ago, today the company is oriented to produce equipment for home and leisure use focused on a child or adolescent audience and housewives (without underestimating to nobody). However, he still continues to sell the image of "high productivity", deceiving all of us who assume that we have a suitable team to work.

    In this sense, how is it possible that a Samsung of the same year and with similar applications is much faster than my iPhone 4 and how it is possible for a Macbook to get stuck with a 3d model that a humble PC handles without problems. In my case I migrated to PC for a long time given the high cost of mac and its low performance in architecture applications and apparently I am not having another possibility to migrate to android, I suppose that linux and google have done a better job than Apple in your cell phone system.

    Based on this I think that iPhone is following the same path as Blackberry, becoming only an obsolete memory!

    You should only have your iphone 4 free of garbage in memory, one of you may have YEARS OF ACCUMULATING junk files added to the updates which we all have. The iphone4 is a LUXURY device technologically speaking, far superior to the ip5 !! While those who wait for the IP6 should already know that it is nothing more than an IP5 with an exclusive application for 4 years before it goes to the competition, another day we will talk about your IP4 capable of doing much more than just augmented reality , TAKE CARE OF IT, it is still valid!
