    Install iOS 7 on iPhone 5s 2017

    iOS 11 made my iPhone 5s pathetically slow for day to day usage. Situation gradually became worse with every single release from iOS 7. Want to go back to iOS 10 or earlier. How do I do that?

    IOS 11 PB 2 and Developer 3 Lock Screen

    I was baffled when people said they couldn't answer messages from the lockscreen on the 5S and 6, and having the 6, I was disappointed to see that they were right. It only let me answer messages once, which is strange. Is this permanent or temporary?
