It's unreal. I'd rather not add my grocery store or target/best buy to my contacts just to use the location reminders. Very strange this isn't an option... I don't even have that many address's in my contacts anyway.
Got a tip for us?
Let us know

- Ability to lock folders with passwords. (and apps within those folders wouldn't show up in the multitasking bar)
- Ability to merge folders (if their sum of Apps is lower than 12)
- Tiny small icon in the status bar to let us know we have notifications (maybe a number or just a small flashing dot)
- Improve iMessage group chats. (this has a LOT to be worked on)
- Once we clear all missed calls from Notification Center (NC), the red badges on the phone should automatically disappear. (or any other app)
- Ability to clear all notifications with one tap. (maybe tap and hold just one of the "x" and it'll clear them all).
- Ability to close all apps in the multitasking bar. (same idea, just tap and hold one of the "-" and it'll clear them all).
- Bring back the arrows to browse through photos.
- Now you can tap and hold on a song/album, and you'll get a popup with basically the same info you're seeing. It should have different info (year, genre, rating, etc)

Ability to sort reminders by DUE date. They apparently are in the order they were entered or you can look at a specific date, but in the notifications they are in the order they were entered. So they need to add some sorting options, such as due date and maybe alphabetical.
Someone else mentioned it, but the ability to display my next 5 calendar items, regardless of WHEN they are. I only use my Google calendar for the "big" daily stuff like birthdays, dates the husband is off work, etc. So I can go 3 or 4 days with nothing. Unfortunately notification center won't show these. If I say I want to see 5 appointments, I want to see them even if they are over the course of 5 years.

1) The ability to disable newsstand in the settings menu or at least have it combined with iBooks.
2) An improvement with battery life. This phone seems to drain power even if you're only using it for several minutes.
3) The ability to delete 'photo library'. There's no need to have two folders containing the same photos.
Can't think of anything else for now.

The original poster is on the money. I personally would love to see:
1. Ability to delete notifications on lock screen.
2. Status bar icon for notifications.
3. Hide SpringBoard icons.
4. Ability to delete Photo Stream photos.
5. Ability to password protect icons.
6. Clearing a notification (in center) deletes badge icon.

Amen to that! This is the only remaining reason I need to sync to iTunes daily. I would love to REALLY cut the PC cord *completely*.

yeah I miss the last two from the jailbreak. so to hold me over I took settings out of the utility folder and put on my home screen so I could get to it for now. I LOVE SBSettings! I also liked that I could see all notifications on the lock screen and the ability to delete from notifications too.
people keep mentioning the newsstand folder..I just put it on a page that I don't even go to just to get out of sight out of mind..I guess that's what you'll have to do for now. I don't see it as that big of a deal. but that's just me. I love this update and it will hold me over til next year.
#3 Steve explicitly said a big NO to Flash, and now he has passed away. I don't think the other executives dare to change this decision in the foreseeable future....
It's not a problem, as soon as you take 1,000 more pictures it'll be gone.
(Seriously, I hate it too, this is my #1 beef with Photostream and iOS5...terrible decision. And I have yet to hear anyone defend it.)
Doesn't #4 already happen?
#3, yes, please, constantly switching BT on and off.
A. more than 12 apps per folder, make it scroll!
B. More granular Repeating capability for Calendar events. For a meeting that's the 3rd Thursday of each month, I have to go into iCloud to set it up. iPhone interface only gives you options for Every: Day/Week/2 Weeks/Month/Year.
C. new Reminders app is a start but lacking so much functionality. It needs:
1. granular repeating capability from (b) above
2. Snooze ability
3. If I set up a repeating reminder for every 3 months to change my furnace filters, if I don't get it done for a few days, then mark it complete, it should start counting 3 days from that point.
Everything in B and C were available on my @#$%&*! Palm Treo 650 about 7 years ago!
I'd really like an iPod app for iPad like the one I had previously instead of the half-baked Music app and totally amateurish Video app. Why is there more functionality to view music videos on small screened devices like iPhone and iPod touch but all functionality to view music videos is removed from the larger screen on the iPad following iOS 5? Steve Jobs must be turning in his grave that anyone could let this travesty escape from beta.
- move send button to top of screen in Text/iMessage to prevent accidental sending.
- customisable shortcuts for brightness, Bluetooth etc.
- customisable quick launch from lock screen for voice record, calendar etc (anything not requiring a data connection)

i want some wifi,brightness,bluetooth etc toggles for when i pull down notification center,Kinda like an sb settings thing but without the jailbreak...
Advanced Reminders (repeat every weekday, repeat first monday of every month, etc) and ability for Siri to understand these:
"Remind me to take out the trash every Monday and Thursday at 7am"
I'll be using the heck out of Reminders when this happens.
...Oh, and I just read someone's post about location-based reminders...being able to drop a pin for the location vs having to set it as a contact. Totally agree.

Or being able to select several at once! as in tap the top one, tap the bottom one and every one in-between is selected
