This may not be a popular opinion with everyone, but I would like to have a similar springboard as on Apple Watch. I read an article about it once on 9to5mac and it didn't look that bad IMO. We have been stuck with the same basic layout for almost a decade and it has become boring a long time ago.
Just ****ing fix what they have started and then start adding ****... I don't know anyone that uses the flashy animations when you switch between apps, or the bouncing of the messages when you reach the end.. It's crap like that we DONT need VS the crap we DO which is a more stable system
Just open it up so we can use google maps.. FIX CARPLAY.. Actually, START OVER with carplay.
LISTEN to your customers.

Not sure if it's been mentioned but I'd like to see them update the proactive screen (to the left of the home screen) to something with useful info like Google now. Maybe even merging the today tab into it.
iOS 10 wishlist #1: Instaban feature for anyone who goes on macrumors and whines about lag.
Redesign the UI. It's time for a change from static icons. Build it more like Windows Mobile, that would be the perfect phone since iOS has all the apps Microsoft lacks but the UI on Windows Mobile is so much better.
Better yet, allow Google Maps as the default navigation app.
That would cause me to leave Apple. I can't imaging getting correct selection on many of those too many and much too small icons. Worst design that I've seen lately, to me. Of course many will think it is great.
THIS IS ALL I WANT!
Why do you want a horrible UI?
Apple needs to do something big this year to keep me. I've had iPhones since 2009 and I've become such a fanboy over the years. Now though I'm utterly bored of iOS and it's huge limitations compared to Android. I want to customise control centre and how my phone looks. I want to default whatever app I choose for mail or Twitter. I want a better display with slimmer bezels. I want to have the freedom to make my own choices, not be shackled by what Apple thinks I should do.
I'm giving them until the fall to deliver an operating system that gives me most of this or I'm gone, and that pains me.

I just want an overhaul of the photos app, the way my photos appear in iOS after I synced it with my computer is very different from how I have organized it originally in the Mac OSX Photos app.
- Albums within albums. It's possible on Mac, why not iOS? (For instance, one mega album just for traveling containing many photo albums)
- After having carefully chosen a cover photo for each of my albums on Mac OSX, why does this not sync to iOS?
- Having categories for selfies / videos / slowmo / etc etc is great, but it clutters up greatly. I'd like to see these combined in just one 'sub-categories' album or something like that.
- Show more data of photos, like the image size and other meta data.
- I really really miss the option in iPhoto to view all your photos on a world map based on where they were taken. As a traveler this was a great way to keep track of all the places I've been, I'd absolutely love to see a return of this feature.
Showing photos of travels to family members on my iPad Pro 12,9'' is so great, yet I really wish the experience was improved to make it even better.
Other than that, improve the multitasking features for iPads, more optimization, improved Siri, a dedicated Homekit app, and other small tidbits and improvements would be welcome.

Just lock the phone.It's better if we can use a password for Photos and Messages. And also able to select ringtones through Music library. :
I recently discovered that we can, actually. Hold the + button in the Albums tab
As far as I can tell, it is possible to create a new folder, but I can not actually add pre-existing photo albums to a newly created folder (or am I doing it wrong?)
Regardless, I don't see why after having organised everything in the Photos app on my Mac, it wouldn't sync it in the same manner on iOS.
some minor things i'd like:
- confirm to delete notes (like with everything else)
- swipe to mark as read on messages (like in every other app)
- a way to go to spotlight from within an app, instead of needing to get first to the home screen.
- a way to delete or reduce app data while keeping the app (why does dropbox, twitter, instagram, etc. each use 100+mb of data to store documents and there's no way to know what it actually is and how to shrink it?)

From Above ^ some minor things I'd like:

Notes get moved to recently deleted so I dont think this is a GREAT idea but eh. I think I'd get annoyed because it's an extra step which takes longer for something thats not really necessary.
- Swipe to mark as read on messages (like in every other app)
Loooove it!!

Love the idea!

could be easily put on the drop down notification menu, which i barely use anyway, but i know i'm not such a power user like many others.
i rarely have tons of notifications to scroll through, either i check them from lock screen or, for "spammy" apps like twitter and such, i disable them completely.
the confirm to delete is just to bring consistency with other apps behavior, i don't want to prove my point here, but for example, photos go to the recently delete folder too, but there's a lower popup appearing each time you try to delete one.
I haven't read all 25 pages but there is one thing i use everyday that bugs the hell out of me and would be so simple to fix. In the itunes app, why can't they make the stupid shortcut letters on the right side larger when scrolling through your artists?
I have never been able to hit the letter correctly the first time so i usually just scroll all the way down. Only a child's fingers can hit those tiny letters, no reason to have them that small, they are unusable. I can't imagine that one of the chubby fingered developers haven't had this same problem...
