Stop assuming that long animations are being confused with lag...My iphone clearly lags on and stutters often when unlocking or returning to home...
It's also evident in several other tasks such as scrolling and screen rotation.
iOS 7 = android in terms of performance.
Let's hope that Apple isn't ok with this.

Being into tech or not isn't required to WITNESS low FPS or slow down...
Here's a link about the ios 7 3rd party texting app problem...http://www.148apps.com/news/ios-7-group-text-redesigned-revamped-ios-7/
This guy speaks truth, whoever disagrees has a real poor attention to detail problem. I've used iPhones since the 3G and I've never seen such a lazy Apple when it comes to low fps performance with screen rotation
To be honest I have never paid attention to it. But now that I tried I think you are right. It is choppy!!
Explain why mine doesn't lag, which is an older device than yours. I also have a 5 which doesn't lag either, my friends have iPhones and agree that their's don't lag except the 4 (some of my friends have different experiences with the 4). Also it's possible that iCloud or Spotlight are causing lagging problems on your phone. Spotlight indexes the phone that could potentially cause lag, previously on iOS 6 Spotlight would index when ever the phone is on standby but that doesn't seem to be the case under iOS 7. Also iCloud is known to cause lagging problems under iOS 7 (don't have the problem probably varies with people's experiences). Your case may need an appointment with the nearest Apple Store. Hopefully if the lag is the case with yours, the imminent update arriving may fix your problems ( new iPads are arriving and an update usually arrives to support them).
I completely agree with you, this is not the iOS I have been using for all years. It's slow, buggy and feels cheap android. I don't care what others saying, this is what I am experiencing.
Do you have the start new conversations from selection set to your number or your email? When they start the conversation do they use your number or email (as it might be replying with the same accounted started with)?
I have that I could be reached at both my # and email but the start a conversation part is set to only my #

I thought I heard this was a known bug
I tried that and s/he wasn't receptive to that advice. Folks complaining about this won't provide any details so who knows? The community wants to help them with problems other people aren't having but can't do it in a vacuum.
I know what you mean, sometimes the Apple Geniuses don't really act like Geniuses. I eventually used one of the two replacements using the AppleCare+ since they wouldn't acknowledge the problem.
There is lag in my iPad 4th gen due to cached thumbnails being transformed into actual app when switching between apps
I don't have this issue... I even test drove the Moto X for a few days while I waited for a 5S to come in stock at my local Apple Store. The lag / app issues on that thing were atrocious and made me miss iOS (and I had been using Android phones exclusively from mid2010-early2013). in terms of smoothness for me: iPhone 5S > iPhone 5 > Moto X
that being said, if I could load iOS 7 on the Moto X hardware, that would be a win-win for me!

Apple rarely posts a developer release of a bug fix release which is what 7.0.3 implies.
Bug fix updates, as in x.x.x ones, generally don't have a developer seed. And while minor updates like x.x usually do, it's not always the case, as I recall.
iOS 1.0 was faster and more stable than iOS 7 will ever be. I'm already at the point that I'm waiting on iOS 8. The issues with iOS 7 have been lingering in beta from day 1. Some would get fixed for a short time but would break again with a new update. The music app has never worked right in iOS 7, mail and messages are the two other apps that have been super buggy since beta 1. Safari crashes more now than it ever has. Some apps that pull web data tend to get jammed when scrolling and think you're swiping back. It's not the developer either as it happens in Safari too.
iOS 1 didnt have anywhere near the number of features nor animations to deal with and the fact people choose to remember it with rose tinted glasses is laughable. It didnt even have copy and paste on release.
Go to your Message settings and change it.. You can set new conversation to start from your email or phone number..
