Home screen icons disappear on iOS 7?

Late last week, we passed along some photos from one of our loyal readers, who was obviously having problems with iOS 7. No, he wasn't tossing his cookies into a bucket (at least as far as we know) after staring at his iPhone screen. But what did happen was that the phrase "iCloud" was appearing randomly on the display and the status bar on top of the screen was missing. A quick reset and iOS 7 was back to normal on our tipster's Apple iPhone 5.

Today, another one of our readers took the time to snap a screenshot of his Apple iPhone 5 after using the Zedge app. This is an app that delivers ringtones and wallpapers, and after our source was done using the app, he was stunned to find that the icons on his home screen disappeared leaving him with a black background. A quick re-boot and every thing was copacetic. But we thought with these bugs showing up, as minor as they are, that this would be a good time to remind you that iOS 7.0.3 has been seeded to employees and partners and could be soon on the way.

In the meantime, we would like to know if anyone else has been having these little problems with iOS 7 on their iPhone. If so, drop us a line in the box below the story.
