iOS 10 wishlist
  • Offscreen swipe gestures when the keyboard is onscreen (swipe from left of screen, right of screen over the keyboard) to switch between keyboards (note right now these swipes do nothing) Keep existing button for switching as usual.
  • Press and hold / 3D touch on icons on the control center to do more things. For example:
    • select wireless network
    • turn off bluetooh keyboards
    • turn on favorite alarm / timer
    • turn on/off low power mode
  • Allow night mode in lower power mode (based on the fact that this is both when you're most likely to want to use it - at the end of the day - and on evidence that it doesn't consume any more power) 9.3.2 added this
  • Provide a way to wipe a password protected device without a laptop, that you need an mac for this is stupid
  • Third party Apple music apps (thus meaning I don't have to use the built in music app, I doubt very much they can improve it in a way I like) Provided by 9.3
  • Safari improvments:
    • Close the tab you opened when you opened a URL if you use "Back to whatever"
    • Play multiple audio at the same time (I wrote a HTML5 game or two for my daughter that the sound doesn't work right on)
  • Full screen on screen charging icons when the phone is flat are improved (they're not clear which is "I plugged in a cable and I'm now charging" and which is "A cable was plugged in but I'm not charging for some reason")
  • Siri improvements
    • Make not suck at recognition (it sucks so bad) and not randomly not work because of some problem with the Apple servers.
    • Give Siri new names or other way to distingush between them (Am I talking to the iPhone? iPad? TV? Sort it out)
    • Add ability to take photo ("Hey Siri, take photo", "Okay Mark I'm taking a photo in 3, 2, 1")
    • Offline support for several commands one might use when walking / driving where there's no data
      • Play
      • Pause
      • Call back (most recent call in or out)
      • Call favourite (the top most favourite person on your favourites)
    • Third party integrations (like Amazon do)
    • Talk to other Siri ("ask Apple TV to play Bohemian Rhapsody")
