iOS 9 Wishlist

Morning view
Customisable control centre
OS X Dashboard style notification centre
Split-screen multitasking
File manager
In-app Siri
Battery-saving mode
Compressed memory
Split memory between active and inactive tasks
Some processing optimisation feature
 
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?
 
Just saw this in my app analytics:

1. iPhone8,1
2. iOS 9.0 (and 8.4)

😱

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.

Just out of curiosity. Is 8.4 rumored to be the music streaming service overhaul? If so, what is 8.3 brining? Because I thought 8.2 was for the Apple Watch.

8.2 intigrates the Apple Watch
8.3 brings "diverse emojii keyboard" with different skin tones

8.3 brings also more languages for Siri!

Wow! A dot upgrade just for the Emoji's?

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.

It's fine, I do not care either. There is a reason I am still on 7.1.2 lol 😉! we are on the same boat and, want bug fixes (not to break iOS 8 even more🙄)!
 
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).
 
Music:
- Play next / Play Last
- Grid View (optional)
- Option to disable playing next artist album
- Option to sort artist-albums by year
- Better shuffle mechanism.
A lot could be accomplished by adding tap and hold to artist/albums/genres/songs/ect

Phone: (voicemail is way out of date)
- 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
- Purchasable voicemail greetings on iTunes
- Call recording
- In call forwarding
- Grid view for favorites
- Incoming outgoing call log filtering
- Integrate FaceTime calls
- Get rid of the FaceTime and contacts apps

Maps:
- Street view
- Transit
- Off-line maps

Apple Pay / Passbook:
- Customer loyalty cards / coupons
- Receipt
- Transit passes
- Identification

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

IOS General:
- Control center customization (including toggles)
- Voice to text on third-party keyboards
- Ability to hide or remove Default applications
- Why can't I have to date on the status bar on an iPhone 6 Plus?
- A cleaned up settings app.
- "Hey Siri" need some sort of voice recognition
- Set default apps.
- A preview /browser app that works with iCloud and files saved by apps... With share menu access.
- Dark mode

Apple TV:
- A completely redesigned UI
- A new remote app... Everything from the AppleTV should be mirrored in someway to the remote app... I should be able to control my Apple TV by just looking at my phone and not the TV.
- 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.
