    theres one thing I care about and have been waiting for so many years – clipboard history and manager. But it wont come for sure.

    All notifications should appear on the Dynamic Island because it’s useless at this point.

      I use it for about ten different apps, it’s very useful if you know how to use it lol.

    Independent audio controls for more than just one source so you can listen to a video while in a call without the persons voice BLASTING your eardrums while the video is barely audible. PLEASE

    First thing I did with the “new” control centre was to delete the extra pages.

    So… You want Android features… 🤔👍🏼

    They had some good ideas but the example of being able to use the notes and calculator at the same time seems outdated since the notes app does calculations. I also don’t see why people keep wanting/expecting RCS messages to appear as blue, the colors denote how the message is delivered. The only way I could see them having non-iMessage texts displayed as blue is if another web-based messaging service was integrated like WhatsApp.

    Apple totally ruined the photos app with the redesign they did a few months ago.
    The photos app used to be perfect and easy for years until Apple decided to fix something that was not broken.
    ALL of my friends that have iPhones are constantly calling me asking me how to navigate the current photos app.
    We all want the original photos app back or at least a way to revert back to the original photos app if desired.

    One thing I lost coming from Android to iPhone is excitement, at least from my observation my group of iPhone users are no longer interested or excited about new announcements. I used to be all hype about new features but thanks to Apple, the joy of new techs are all gone. Thank you so much Apple!

    I think the Photos app is bursting at the seams. Scroll up, scroll down, etc. It was recently redesigned, and I think largely it did not make the experience better. It would be a great place to put your best design minds and make the experience better. I think the default idea of having “all photos” be the main section is annoying because I want to MOVE things to folders to get them out of the way, but it just doesn’t work that way with the way “all photos” works, where folders are just copies of that section.

  12. @6919wally

    May 9, 2025 at 5:47 pm

    Most of those things are in Android for years

    Bridget is absolutely gorgeous, she makes watching tech videos far more enjoyable.

  14. @WafflesIsTheStuff

    May 9, 2025 at 5:52 pm

    Good stuff.

    I have a feeling the Photos app may have been an attempt at something new, modern and innovative. More charming while retaining core values. Sadly they either misunderstood what people actually want or just didn’t have enough time to finish what they had in mind. Thankfully they do seem to respond well to criticism so i’m confident they’ll make adjustments until it works.

    Want to be allowed to change the duration of the snooze button on the wakeup alarm clock. 9 minutes is too short for me.

  16. @itsMunchkin

    May 9, 2025 at 6:21 pm

    Split screen yes.

  17. @GospelSheep

    May 9, 2025 at 6:44 pm

    Apple doesn’t care about what people need, unfortunately and on top of it they don’t fix even very very very old bugs.

    So an android phone Samsung in particular is the perfect phone wooow 😮😅

    What we need is bypass charging. And sideloading unlocked.

  20. @bcharles406

    Apple doesn’t unveil what they are coming out with. They unveil what they want to do and then it falls short.

    What I want is just the return of the best feature of the IPhone 6S Plus… LANDSCAPE mode in all IOS.

    I missed this feature.

  22. @HayKay_

    May 9, 2025 at 7:41 pm

    Basically Android features in iPhone.

    Those poor souls who bought the iPhone 15.5 just for Siri AI lol

    Control center should pop out from bottom not from up.

  29. @mazethesinger

    Can the guy with moving apps anywhere just go get an android? Like I honestly don’t understand why someone would want such a mess?!

    I don’t agree with 90% of their wish list

    I just want the old photos app back 😭😭

  36. @deejay6746

    Close all button and ability to pin apps in the multitasking pane

  37. @deejay6746

    How about when you zoom or increase fonts size in mail and while reading mail if you swipe in any direction – it gives your side menu each side- Unless you zoom out again and swipe to read mail: highly annoying for small regular size Pro 👏 😢

    OR Accidental push on Volume or Silent button PAUSES Video Record 😠 stopping your memorable moments
    OR SPATIAL Videos have same TWO record Red Button when paused- any accidental hit on wrong Red record button cancels the video- Gosh I missed on most memorable memories on something I bought so expensive for capturing memories !!!! 😢😢 APPLE I am returning phone due to that before 30 days !!!

    Some country would like so simple things like language support. Siri can’t “speak” and “understand” hungarian for almost 15 years! While on android phones all AI model can. So, that’s what I want. 🇭🇺

  40. @ignatiustremor

    May 10, 2025 at 4:59 pm

    What about consistent gesture navigation instead of the randomness navigation is now and a usable text editing experience? The current state of these two essentials of any smartphone is complete garbage on iOS

  41. @marcokrauss5320

    May 10, 2025 at 5:02 pm

    Copy, paste, cut always visible when keyboard is active. On IPhone and IPad.
    The fact that copy and pasting takes so many taps is crazy. Especially because in some apps (including some from Apple) this is a feature, but not system wide.

  42. @av24

    May 10, 2025 at 5:07 pm

    the photos app is just terrible at this point … i really hope they give this some much needed attention

  43. @FrankErazo

    May 10, 2025 at 5:43 pm

    I think it’s about time for the iMovie app to be updated (iPad and iPhone).

  44. @doriongarcia8887

    May 10, 2025 at 6:08 pm

    The guy at 2:07 , just check iPhone storage in settings

  45. @srinathm3836

    May 10, 2025 at 7:04 pm

    I’m sorry but anybody who’s shooting in LOG for that precise control of color grading is definitely NOT going to use the 6 inch screen to edit and give their videos a “cinematic flair” 😭

    The best thing to expect is to just display the natural colors while filming so you can have an idea, and also MAY BE store a lower resolution Rec footage, but expecting to edit and color grade on a tiny screen is absolutely ridiculous 😂

  46. @icymayne

    May 10, 2025 at 7:12 pm

    Split screen multitasking pls apple dam

  47. @FireBomb5517

    May 10, 2025 at 7:16 pm

    Hey Jeff – you can actually see when an app was last used in Storage Settings. It’s not all of what you wanted, but that is there now! 2:07

    Tbh, I’m not the biggest fan of iOS but I have to use it.

    I agree with a lot of the recommendations in the video but I wish that Apple would add a real customizable app drawer, a number row to the keyboard, better notification interactions and layout along with grid size layout options for the homepage and folders. I feel like a lot of the design choices in iOS are just there to waste your time.
