One fix we’ve already found is Apple made it easier to open the camera from the lock screen. In the last beta it was almost impossible to launch the camera while the Control Center was turned on for the lock screen. Other changes include
New settings options and looks in iOS 7 beta 5.
iOS 7 beta 5 includes a new settings page with colored icons for the settings and more control over Control Center, including the ability to turn it off while in apps. This could help prevent accidental touches in games.
The iOS 7 beta 5 release also includes a new pull down option for notifications. The image below shows a Tweetbot notification that a user can pull down. Pulling down will take the user to the Notification Center, not to the app. Push up on the notification to dismiss it. This is a handy feature as the banners are bigger in iOS 7 and cover buttons in many apps.

There is also a new Twitter icon on the sharing screen and Yahoo makes a bigger appearance as the provider of data like weather and stocks.
More new iOS 7 beta 5 updates.
Apple is holding an iOS 7 release to the public for this fall, but users that want to try the iOS 7 beta early can do so for as low as $8. This is not recommended for everyone as some apps will not work on the iOS 7 beta, and the iPhone could crash. With the new iOS 7 beta 5 release we should see even better performance as Apple squashes the biggest bugs, so if you’ve been on the fence it may be a good time to try the iOS 7 beta. Just don’t be an iOS 7 beta tester behaving badly.
