The equivalent of Spotify Connect or Handoff for Apple Music and Apple Podcasts. Pause music playing in Apple Music on your Mac from your iPhone or iPad. Start a podcast on your iPhone, but skip ahead 30 seconds on your Mac.
Still can’t believe they haven’t added this yet.
End-to-end encrypted iCloud. Every component.
It’s 2020 and we still can’t create smart playlists on iOS. It’s time.
I'd love to see proper support for external displays; being about to properly use a second screen instead of just mirroring or the kinda limited external options with things like Infuse; I'm really close to pushing the button and switch back to a 12.9 iPad Pro for 99% of my work (now that the Magic Keyboard exists!) but I've got so used to having my Surface Pro plugged in and using both screens.
- Privacy settings for the clipboard. Having any app being able to access the clipboard at any time is a huge security and privacy concern.
- All Apple Music desktop functionality available on iPadOS app. This includes being able to edit metadata, cover art, and load local iPad files into Apple Music using only the iPad.

How does everyone feel about Control Center? Did they finally get it right after all those years of tinkering, or is there anything else you’d like to see?
I think widgets could have a place in it. Sure there’s a calculator button, but what about a mini calculator right in the control center panel? Or maybe a weather widget, I think it makes more sense in Control Center than having to swipe down and swipe to the left. Same with battery levels, I think that belongs in control center and not Notification Center.

iPhone:
- New notification of incoming calls
- Always on Display (I hope they don’t make it possible only for newer iPhones from this year)
- Lockscreen widget dots like on the Apple Watch on the always on display. Also with a number dot of new notifications
- Default apps (Maps, Music, Browser, Mail)
- Safari extensions like Adblock working with third party browsers
- Live icons (Live Tiles) on the home screen
- App icons which can chance like clock or calendar automatically
- Swipe bar should disappear. We already know the gestures
- Battery in percent on Face ID devices
- Closing all apps in the app switcher
- Button for deleting cache
iPad:
- Same like on the iPhone
- Apps with tabs
- Widgets on home screen

Anyway they can ad an option to be able to delete an artist from your Apple Music with out having to go into the artist and delete each album. Or is that a thing and I am just stupid lol.
Sadly I think you’re right. I get the feeling this is just going to be a minor update. I never get remotely excited about updates to iMessage because no one in the U.K. even really uses iMessage... still hoping for default apps though

Yep, no one outside of the US gives a crap about iMessage or Memoji rubbish.
Home screen widgets and default apps would be amazing but we'll get a unicorn on a mac Animoji and more filters for photos instead.
For the Debbie Downers in the several preceding posts, there’s always Android for you.
So many of you:
“iOS 13 doesn’t do X, Y or Z. Why can’t we have another iOS 12 to make things right?”
Apple gives you another stability release: “Hey! Where are all the cool new features?”

A real pull down settings menu not control center. I don’t want to have to wait three more releases for this. I’d rather have this than widgets.
Maybe people need to go back nearly a year and watch the multiple videos that took nearly an hour to review all the features they crammed into iOS 13.
Agree.
iOS 18
iOS 18 makes iPhone even more personal, with deeper customization, new ways to connect, easier-to-find photos, and support for Apple Intelligence.

As the threadstarter, I'm excited to see which things I can write off the list later today
For the love of god please let me disable the homebar this year
