Am I reading this right? 9 will make things 'just work' again. So, older devices will not suffer from this but run better than they did on 8. This is my wish.
Any MR folks running 9 yet? I bet we have some Apple employees here that have 9 running, right?

Interesting, so they are naming the 4,7" model now iphone8,1 opposed to the currently used iphone7,2.

(iPhone 6 is iphone7,2 and iPhone 6 Plus is iphone7,1 - for those who don't know^^)

Apparently, Apple employees are required to delete their accounts, and I f they do have accounts, there is probably a NDA.

Wow! A dot upgrade just for the Emoji's?
Click to expand...

Yes and no. 8.3 had the emojii keyboard overhauled with a stock load of new emojiis. :) There is now multiple skins for face emojiis. And finally, a couple of emojiis were overhauled completely. The prayer hand emojii that I am holding down on the left bottom picture has been changed to take out the rays of lights. This is a extremely controversial emoji change. :apple:

Overall with this new keyboard, if you hold down a emoji, you will get different skin colors to that emoji!;)

Not to be rude, but I'm not remotely excited about this. I never once needed this. Maybe some did, good for them. All that I care about are bug fixes.

I basically want "Snow Leopard" iOS but there are two Android features that I want badly: (1) Wi-Fi priority: avoid slow or unreliable Wi-Fi connections and (2) multi-user account: I actually don't want multi users, but I would love my iPhone to switch from work mode to home mode depending on the location (as well as manually toggling).

- Contact group Managment
- Block unknown numbers
- Voicmail speech to text dictation
- Send Voicmail via share menu
- Voicmail folders for archiving
- Per contact / Per group Voicemail greetings
- Smart Voicemail Greetings

Maps:
- Street view

Safari:
- A quick way to close all open tabs.

IOS General:
- Control center customization (including toggles)

- Handoff... This would be much better than airplay for a lot of conditions
- Some sort of cable competition

IPad:
- Mouse support
- Windowed app mode
- Some basic iPhone functions such as calculator and weather that Apple doesn't feel that we need on an iPad for whatever reason :/

I would like app-specific keyboard settings, ie, when I'm in Whatsapp my keyboard is set to Spanish, but when I'm in Twitter it's the English keyboard. Better yet, that apps remember which keyboard I was using last time.
