Some things I'd like to see in no particular order...
- Missing iOS apps brought to the iPad - i.e. Health, Activity, Wallet, Voice Memos, Stocks, Weather, and Phone.
For Health and Activity, as
@mark-vdw mentioned, some kind of device-to-device local syncing would be excellent since I know they don't want Health data in the cloud. For me, I'd just want the ability to review and store the data on my iPad for extra safekeeping. No reason why that ability shouldn't be there if the user opts in. It already works great between the Watch and the iPhone...let's bring that everywhere.
For the Phone app, I'd love nothing more than to have a separate app on the iPad like we already have on the iPhone with access to voicemails. Now that voicemails have albeit a small iCloud tie-in with Siri I'd love for them to take it a step further and make voicemails available across devices. Having all my calls on my iPads is great, but since I screen a lot of spam calls, I can't really use it as I'd like and still always need my phone nearby to listen to voicemails, thus rendering this feature a lot less useful than it could be for me. Taking it a step further, being able to transfer phone calls between devices via Handoff would be fantastic too.
- Some kind of universal Now Playing option or Handoff for media. Now that all my headphones are wireless, I often find myself starting to listen to music on one device and then end up using another one of my devices before long. It'd be nice if I could seamlessly control what I'm listening to from whatever device I'm on.
- Faces sync in Photos. This is probably the number one thing I'd like to see...
- Make Audiobooks act like other iTunes media - have them all viewable directly in the Audiobooks section of the iBooks app, but store ones I'm not currently listening to in the cloud. It's great that we can re download them from the store now, but they just need this one extra step to make them really act like how everything else purchased from iTunes now functions.
- More local news and sports stations in Apple Music
- On the Home screen, being able to customize app folders with custom icons would be huge for me, even as just an Accessibility feature. My eyesight is horrible and having all these folders with tiny icons inside them that all look the same to me is not helpful.
- Being able to type to Siri/having Siri and Spotlight merged
- Being able to scan in my own cards to the Wallet app for safekeeping. It'd be nice to have scanned copies of my health insurance cards and things like that for when I need the information on them in a pinch
- Share sheets in Mail - it'd be great being able to add a Mail message to Reminders without having to use Siri to do so. (This capability is already there in iOS - you can already say "Remind me about this" to Siri when looking at an email, and a reminder is generated in the Reminders app with a handy link to the email. I just need to be able to do this without invoking Siri).
- A Trash feature in Messages like what we have in Mail or Photos. I like keeping all my messages and am always afraid of accidentally swiping over a conversation and deleting the whole thing. It is way too easy to do that. A Trash folder, where you can either go and delete threads/messages immediately forever or have 30 days to recover accidentally deleted things would be awesome.
- This is a long shot that will probably never happen, but being able to have videos that have been manually transferred to the TV app "live" in the cloud (i.e stored in iCloud until you redownload it, as all other iTunes media does) would be amazing. I have a ton of homemade videos that I'd like to keep with all my other videos and this would make it much neater.
- Ability to use iCloud storage for HomeKit security camera recording
