Apple

Better WIFI hotspotting because right now you can’t leave the settings screen until a non iOS device has connected.

“Best iPhone ever” each year

Back button, separate app sound, lock screen not stopping apps, close all apps, clear ram option, ultra power saving mode (like samsung has), volume controls for notifications, system sounds, ringer in control center.

Predictive dialling

Since it has a an incredible, never seen before USBC and it's made from titanium, it's going to be hard to top that. Like how could I ever use a phone without titanium...

It should be easier to turn the volume down to very low.

There’s a lot of good suggestions and ideas here, but what I want is a selfie screen on the back of the phone near the camera module. A lot like the folding phones have. The iPhone has great cameras. Just give me that extra small screen to see myself and I’m happy.

I love the pixel I could never switch

I wanna be able to change my text background and bubble colours

Siri, faster animations (compared to android it is damn slow , mostly to hide the 60 hz on regular phones.)

Separate audio controls for phone and external devices ….

No native app lock (workarounds are there but it is a hassle) and no duplicate apps, No IR blaster either.

Look at the pixel 8 this year with its host of AI features. iPhone needs some of these would be fantastic

I just want to swipe from anywhere to access the control center…

I think we’ve reached a point where the hardware is way too ahead than the software we are getting in the App Store.

Sideloading is definitely a welcome feature.

A loot

I think on the design level I feel like the peak level would be where the iPhone would be completely screen (very very thin bezel) with no buttons on the sides and have cameras that won’t stick out while still being a very thin phone with good battery life and no overheating and still having a good speaker system and waterproofing and durable

A fucking headphone Jack in the pro max version would be a godsend for us audio engineers! And don’t say there’s no space I fit a family of raccoons in a pro max phone

Lets start with moving icons anywhere I would like on the screen.

They are probably racing to introduce GenAI powered Siri, that would be a game changer.

Everyone here sounds like they have fallen for the Apple eco system and haven't bothered to look at what Android has to offer from other all the phones available. Everything here is doable on other phones
