Does anyone know Ipad 2 can support IOS7??

i think so but for now there is no beta version for ipad

yes can

Yes, iPad2 will support iOS7.

http://www.apple.com/ios/ios7/features/ (scroll to the bottom of the page)

And iOS7 beta6 is indeed available for iPad2.

ios 7 ftw

Of course they will let you be supported. But don't update first.
Wait for others who can't wait and do it.
We not sure iPad 2 can support or not since it's so old now. Hmmmm
Can support doesn't mean it won't lag and so-on.

hope ios 7 will be amazing on ipad as well

Yeah. I hope it works too.

it is supported.. but dont know bout performance.

i have mine running ios7 since this morning. so far so good.

ipad is a a5 dude so should be now issue.

I heard that upgrading to iOS7 using iTune will download entire OS but OTA upgrade only download necessary things.

Which one is better? What is the different?

OTA better.

Just updated to ios7, minor choking when 5 funger pinch to homescreen. Overall its ok. Browser seemed to hv improved, smoother compared to ios6. New layout which some ppl doesnt like.

My iPad 2 Updated yesterday. Slight lag but barely noticeable. But I didn't use my ipad for gaming so can't comment on game lag or not.

I have problem on updating.

"Software Update Unavailable"
"Software Update is not available at this time. Try again later"

No luck for me.

The file size for upgrading is so huge, it took me one day to download, but I like the design and it is worth to wait ;-)

Can. Also, dunno if iOS7 but Instagram looks way sharper now on iPad 2.

7.0.2 got fix the lag or not? I am still on iOS 6..

nope. just fix lock screen security bug only

So I guess Ill be sticking to ios 6 for now la

Tablet wise, the performance is always topped my Nexus 10 in ios6. Although I'm not a big fan of ios, but it is user friendly especially to my parents.

Now, everything is ruined with ios7. Lagging here and there, new buttons on email and gallery which confused my mom, weird parallax which is still OK because able to be turned off.

Aiyoooooo. Quickly fix it leeehh.

slightly slower performance on iOS7 for iPad 2....welcome to the Apple's 'marketing gimmick' LOL.

My ipad3 become so lag after iOS7. I did a clean install to avoid any problem but still lag alot. Haih...

I think ipad3 is much smoother than ipad 2 in this case

My iPad battery lasts about 15 hours on a single charge when running iOS 7.

Quite Impressive, but I only use my iPad for web browsing.

On iOS 6, it was only around 10-12 hours.

That's pretty good battery performance for your iPad 1 !

Oh sorry, I tested iOS 7 on my iPad Retina, I misread the title "iPad and iPad 2".
I'm sorry again.

Ipad 2 user on ios7, the 5 fingers animation to close an app is slightly sluggish, it bothered me at first, bcuz in comparison, ios6 closes app quicker than my eyes blink.

Now that im used to it, ios 7's control centre toggles is a godsent with unjailbroken devices

Quickoffice seems to be not working on ios7, anyone else? Or any free and good office app to try out as alternative?

You can try Documents Unlimited Free.

Here is the iTunes Store link

Agree with you mate. Try to turn on the REDUCE MOTION in setting>general>accessibility, the outcome will be a little better

Just upgrade my iPad 2 from 7.0.2 to 7.0.3 and still lag like hell.

Are you comparing the lag to the smoothness in iOS6 ?
so far I've not heard any of my friends complaining about lagging in iOS7, just how similar is the features when compared to android.

Offcourse I am comparing with iOS6, this is iPad thread ... and I don't have android Pad ...

thanks for the tips

Guys is it adviceable to upgrade ipad 2 to ios 7.0.4 from 5.1.1? Heard a lot of lagging for old devices once upgraded. Wanted to upgrade cause jailbreak already out for ios 7. Thanks

My iPad 2 still iOS6 and probably will stay with it for as long the apps still supported on that version. Lagging issue is pretty much common even on my new retina iPad mini. But of course if u dont mind the lagging issue then go ahead, upgrade it.

I dont think it is advisable now. Me oso ipad3 ios5.1.1 and tried to update to ios7.0.4 but failed and forever needs to be restore due to "unknown error (3)" which i dont really know what that means..

ipad 2 iOS7 jb still not available.. refer to evasion website..

iOS 7 is working great on my iPad 3!But the only problem I have is my battery life.In iOS 6 it used to last for 3days but now in iOS 7 my battery lasts for a day only..I play games for 1-3 hours aday.

Also,try connecting your iPad to iTunes and then update to iOS 7.0.4.Apple dint sign 5.1.1 anymore so if you connect to iTunes it will force you to update your ipad.iOS 7 is stable for now.Mybe I play games too much that's why my battery don't last so long.

Let me know the results !

It is more battery consuming, you're not the only one.

What you can do is disable background data, increase contrast and reduce motion to reduce GPU usage.

Tried those but dint really like it..

Then you'll have to live with the increase battery consumption

Yeah.But i will try turning off those settings and see how my ipad works.Thanks for your help anyways.

You're welcome. Hopefully it will imrpve improve your battery life :0

hmm part of me wanna update my ipad 2 to ios7 but after reading about the lag, im starting to have second doubt. what do u guys think?

you can disable some of the transparency and "nice" features in IOS7 which will make ipad2 faster. A lot of ppl says it becomes usable once those features are disabled. Google for this..lots of sites teach you how to do it. I will upgrade my ipad2 once jailbreak in ios7 is stable.

Disabled all transparency and stuff on iOS 7 on my friend's iPad 3 and it still stutters, cant imagine if I update my iPad 2...

Personally, i would love to stick to iOS 6 as long as it take. The battery is still far more superior on it and i don't want to lose it after upgrading it to iOS 7. Not much a fan of iOS 7 on non-retina iPad though.

Am thinking of upgrading to IOS7 but all these comments here cancel out my thoughts Guess I will just stick to IOS6... Problem free
