It's hard to resist upgrading to iOS 7, especially when you want to try your best to keep up with all the new apps and design trends happening in mobile, but sometimes it's good to show some reserve and not be caught out. With this in mind I've researched a short list of apps that I'd rather not live without.
iDesign has received iOS 7 bug fixes to backup and save functions.
Update: having now updated an iPad 3 to iOS 7, I've found no obvious bugs in iDraw and the developer has confirmed this to be the case via Twitter.
And in a surprise move Inkpad, which has languished without update for quite some time, has not only been released as an iOS 7 (only) update but the developer has also made the code open source on GitHub.
(Note: if your device cannot upgrade to iOS 7 then you will be able to download the last compatible version from the App Store.)
If you've already upgraded to iOS 7 and an app you use has unresolved bugs please let me know in the comments below.

Apps still suffering bugs
Comments on iTunes indicate that GoodReader would benefit from a second round of bug fixes for iOS 7 following their recent update (Sep 16, 2013).iOS 7 ready apps
A new version of Procreate has been released to fix bugs. Kodiak for PHP and Kodiak for JavaScript have no reported bugs according to their developer and Textastic got in early and put their house in order well before iOS 7 was released, as did TouchDraw. DoInk has confirmed (via Twitter) no current bugs have been reported or found.iDesign has received iOS 7 bug fixes to backup and save functions.

@sketchyTech thanks for letting us know. We're working on an upcoming update, but the current version should work well on iOS 7. Cheers!
