TiPb Asks: What do you want in iOS 5.1?

How about a working music player. Maybe go back to pre ios5

I'd go for the fast camera disablement myself. I would also like the iPad smart cover bug fixed and Siri/location based reminders brought to the iPad as well.

I'm hoping being able to delete some photo stream pics. When I how off how fast the 4S camera is I don't need 10-20 photos of rapid blurred photos on the stream haha.
I had no idea who wrote this article until I saw the part about being kicked out of the app store after each purchase and I knew it must've be Georgia. I hate that too!

Don't have the screen light up when you get a text...and dont have the phone beep when you get a text while on a call. Reduce banner time for notification - they hang forever. While were at it. Can we chose if the banner was at the top or bottom?

I would really like to be able to set the number of days in advance a calendar appointment is displayed in notifications.

Is the hardware in iPad/iPad2 capable of running Siri? That would be major.

Card multitasking. Android, Palm, and MS got it. Your "advanced approach to multitasking" works OK-ish, but the implementation is crap.
I can't stand holding the app icon then trying to hit that tiny (-)!
Bezel swipe support (like the NC) for the switcher would be nice.
/rant.
Anyway, i think third-party widgets (non-JB) will be nice.
Ability to delete from Photo Library. (not camera roll)

Third party app compatibility with Siri.

Three wishes: 1. The ability to turn off all notifications with one button 2. A dedicated icon for switching Wifi on/off 3. A dedicated icon for switching Bluetooth on/off.

I would like the deleting pic from photo stream as well in addition to better photo albums where photos will only store in the album and not in camera roll as well as password protected albums. I would also like the ability to clear out notifications from the lock screen w/o always have to unlock my phone. I also would like to have the date on the top bar (where the network and battery icons are) like it is when jailbroken. I never knew how much I would miss that. As well as maybe doing live weather, clock, and calender app icons (wishful thinking-i know).
Anyone know where Apple does get their ideas/project request for doing system updates and bug fixes? Any chance they frequent the site and will see our request!?!?

i would really like to see iMessage as its own app. where we can add ppl and make status'. dont make me say it... make it like bbm but better. ooops i said it.

Bug fix plus Siri to become more advance and also for it to work properly in the uk. Better features for the camera

Third party notification center widgets would be nice.

How about multiple email account signature support?! That shit is way overdue!

iOS5 already does this if you have the notification set to Lockscreen. It turns on the screen with every notification that comes in that's set to Lockscreen On in it's settings. Is this what you're talking about?

Wifi toggle switch and better battery life.

Improved battery + siri for us 4 users. iPhone 4 can handle it so hopefully it will be out of beta and available for i4

more option in iCloud. Like deleting photos in photo stream. updating pics and albums from my ipad / iphone to my mac.

Ability to choose toggles for the Notification Centre
i.e. WIFI, BT, GPS etc

1) Access notification center from lock screen
2) Quick reply and compose for text messages, emails and twitter.
3) Facebook integration

Give option to turn off the lockscreen.

Give option to turn off the lockscreen.

Siri to other apple devices, iPhone 3GS

I would like the ability to have a button that would close all open apps.

The ability to move pictures from the camera roll to user specified folders without them being duplicated across folders.
The ability to delete the camera roll picture and keep the copied picture in another folder.

Untethered jailbreak

We were told that IOS 5 would be independence from the computer. However, if we want to create custom repeats for appointments, we still have to use our computer to do it. I would like the calendar app to have the option to create custom repeats.

I would like to have some additional Siri features. For example, I would like to be able to say "Siri, turn my Wi-Fi off" when I don't want wi-fi to drain my battery, and then say "Siri, turn on my Wi-Fi" for when I want to quickly turn it back on again. Same could go with many other features, like location services, etc.
I would also like to use Siri to better create notes or shopping lists. I would love to be able to say "Siri, add some extra small condoms to my shopping list", and have her add it to the list she helped me create previously. Or at least be able to interact with notes or reminders in an more involved and intuitive way.
I want to be able to have Siri interact with certain apps, like the camera for example. I could say, "Take a picture every 10 seconds for 10 minutes". Or "Siri, once the camera is stable, wait for 10 seconds and snap a picture".
Any of this should definitely be doable.

3G Facetime!!
Also Facebook Integration like Twitter
widgets/settings in notifications.
Only thing is I am expecting none of this till iOS 6 which will be beta testing in March for June release of iPhone (LTE)

Siri on iPhone 4/iPod touch 3 & 4/Maybe iPad 1, Def iPad 2.

imessage online offline status. so we could know if the one we are talking to is online since imessage needs to connect to internet. imessage is some king of useless if online offline will not be placed.

"Close all" background app button

Working push email

1) All notifications on/off in one switch, like in 4.x.
2) iMessage work by user, not by device. People should not have to send to Dev's phone to hit my phone or Dev's email to get my iPad...they should just send to Dev, and it should get to both places. (Bonus points if the conversations can be archived/viewable from both places, a la Google Voice)

1.) Multiple Mail signatures (like Mail Enhancer).
2.) Syncing of iOS iWork apps with Mac iWork apps.
3.) A flashlight button on the lockscreen.

To be allowed to disable alerts on shared calendars. This is very important to me

FaceTime 3g

I want templates in calendar

Call black list
Every 50$ phone is capable of blocking phone numbers for sms or calls. iPhone not.

Solve battery problems

how about something simple ... id like to see stock %s in the notification widget ... not $s

Siri available on the iPhone 4

I want something simple: for Pages to export to dropbox. iCloud docs is great for iOS, but a pain to manage with my macbook. I hope someone at Apple will get over Jobs being peeved that dropbox wouldn't be bought out.

How about fixing the macro and focusing problems on iPhone 4S

I would like to see the battery percentage (if set to off) turn on when the battery is 20% and below and when charging.

Genious for ibooks?? WORST idea ever... so pointless

1. The various "stores" are getting long in the tooth. They need to be consolidated into one app although it is okay for multiple apps to access the stores. For example, there is one app to access the App Store. Then there is another app to access iTunes Music/Movies. Then there is the iBook app to access the Bookstore. All of these stores need to be consolidated into one.
2. A more cleaner interface and simpler one for making the right settings so that "Find iPhone" feature cannot be turned off without a password. Right now, there are multiple settings one has to turn off and in various panels in the Settings app to do that. That's very confusing. If you set the wrong settings, someone who steals your iOS device can very quickly disable the Find iPhone feature or remove accounts and thus you can no longer find your iOS device remotely.
3. iPad should come with a non-removable Weather app, Clock app. All iOS devices that can use Find iPhone app should come with a non-removable Find iPhone app.
4. iPad should have the ability to display weather and stock ticker in the notification banner.
5. Notification banner should be open to allowing different apps post statuses like the Weather and Stock app does.
6. Folder icons need to be redesigned, though I'm not sure how. Right now, folder icons look ugly and confusing.
7. Going to the App Store to update apps results always in the program quitting in order to show where on the main screen the apps are updating. This is annoying when there are multiple items I want to update but not all at once, or I want to continue browsing the app store while an update is happening.
8. Each item in the notification centre should be deletable. Right now, the ability is to only delete a set of notifications from an app instead of individual notifications. Sometimes I like to keep a notification "alive" as a way to remind me when I check again.
9. How come the Reminder app is a separate app but when we logon to iCloud.com, the Reminder features is under calendar? This is very confusing. Apple needs to pick one or the other. If they want reminders to be part of the calendar, then on the iOS, the Reminder should NOT be a separate app and should be part of the Calendar app. If they want the Reminder app to be separate from Calendar app, then on iCloud.com Reminders should have its own icon separate from Calendar icon.

These are just a few but if I were employed by Apple, I'd have a lot more to critique. Maybe they should hire me as a QA person ;-)

Custom lockscreen, custom home screen, quick settings in the notification center, and Siri in my friggin brand new 3GS!

Facebook integration. Delete pics from photostream. Triple click home button for favorites.

I'd really like to see the changes mentioned above -- plus more: Change how the notfications bar looks (background, push content down, etc..), ability to hide newsstand, make the weather icon dynamic for crying out loud!*!

I'd love two small features:

1. When I'm in a meeting, automatically turn my phone ringer off. When the meeting time is over, turn it back on
2. Location-based WiFi. When I get to the office, turn WiFi on. When I leave the office, turn it off. When I get home, turn it back on again. I think this feature alone would boost usage of FaceTime

I would want the Alerts from the Calender to automatically go to the Reminders list. Probably a big wish and I'm sure it'll never happen. Always seems that what some of the best ideas never make it to the phone. Oh, and the ability to make the notifications screen be the screen that the phone opens to. And a button on the home screen for Bluetooth on/off. Siri on a iPhone 4, and a close all open apps button. I could go on and on....

Maps update. Both android and Windows's now have turn by turn. Its our turn.

Group Contacts emailing. And send emails using a different smtp server that I choose

just to make my iphone more my own customize just a more of personalizing

I'd like to see the ability to see a 'delete all' function added for SMS/iMessages. Kind of pitiful that "the most advanced iPhone yet" can't do this but all the "crappy" Androids/Blackberries/Dumbphones can.

I'd like the ability to read attachments within Calendar appointments - that we were promised in ios5 but isn't there.

The ability to delete song from the iPhone .

Multi-touch gesture like ios 4.3.3

A shortcut icon on top of the screen for wifi / 3G / bluetooth / brightness. Like the pop down menu.

Photo stream delete, Siri settings control, more amusing Siri sayings to make us laugh, and fix my document sync.

1: Ability to disable which apps could run in the background.
2: Ability to reply to a text message within the Notification Center.
3: Adjust Brightness, Airplane Mode, Wifi, etc...within Notification Center.
4: Post to Twitter and/or Facebook via Notification Center.

Ability to turn of multitasking apps with one button

Ability to control music player from the notification center

When pulling up the app switcher tray, swiping to the far left... replace volume with BRIGHTNESS.

Share PDF Documents, Photos, Videos, and more. using Bluetooth

1. Sub-Tasks for Reminders.
2. More settings for notifications, ability to change text size (smaller), choose the calendars you want to display. It would of been nice if they just bought InfoLock out from Cydia.
3. More options for Siri

Bluetooth upgrade from 2.1 to 4.0 disabled my sync with my 3 cars phone sync; please fix it!

On iPad's split keyboard, MOVE the letter B to the LEFT side.

How about a battery that lasts at least as much as with iOS 4? It would be nice for the battery to last at least for a whole "work" day.

Want the ability to disconnect a Facetime session and return to voice call only. It's nice that you can switch to Facetime from a phone call, but it would be better if you could then switch back when you were done with the video without having to hand up and call back.

"being able to tell iMessage not to send if it’s going to fall back on SMS would be nice when chatting with people in other countries"
It already does this. Go to settings, messages and toggle send sms to off. This will disable the fallback to SMS and ONLY allow messages to be sent with imessage.

Simple. Ditch the cheap dictionary in iBooks for a the full Oxford english unabridged version...or at least let us buy and replace the existing version with a dictionary of our choice. Love what we have, but it should and could be so much better.

1. ability to mark text messages as read from the notification bar without having to open them one by one again from the sms app!!!!!!
2. ditto. stop kicking me out the app store when i download stuff. i got 100 more apps to update, process is too slow with all the back and forth.
3. more widgets in notification bar - ex. wifi on/off maybe?

I had an iPhone 4 for a week last spring and sold it and returned to Android. I'd like to have a keyboard with haptic feedback and capital/small letters in the skin. This would be enough to tip my preferences over to getting an iPhone.

Our wishes:
1. PhotoStream photo deletion - The ability to delete pictures from the Photo Stream just like you delete them from your Camera Roll
2. Better Music app for iPad - ... or get me back my old iPod app. iPad's new version of Music is a complete FAIL!
3. (not in iOS really...) Better integration between iWorks on my Mac with iClouds - Come on, guys! This drag and drop method is the fastest way to get MAYHEM with documents. Which is the correct version? Did I edit my document on my Mac and forgot to upload it?! HELP!!!!!

i hope everyone also posts their comments here: http://www.apple.com/feedback/

fyi, you can swipe left to get rid of it.

PLEASE add unlimited apps in a Folder!!!

How about access to URL shortening as part of Twitter integration.
How about a long-overdue upgrade to the RSS syncing/reader system. The built-in RSS reader in mobile Safari is shameful for a company like Apple.
How about iTunes in the Cloud for movies.
How about more location awareness beyond "work" and "home" for Geo-fences in Reminders.

3rd party widgets and access notification center from lockscreen

How about better battery life? Since iOS 4.3 the batery is less than half of what it was.
And the ability to turn of the preview of messages? This phone has NO privacy whatsoever.

Siri for the new iPhone is awesome. The voice commands are everything I needed. Except there was no voice commands for the camera. Fortunately, I found an app in the appstore called Voice Camera Pro (I highly recommend this app) and now my phone is voice recognition complete.

• Ability to jump to bottom of the page
• Face unlock
• One setting menu for all radios ie bluetooth, wifi, network
• When searching on a contact name, open the contact, not just the contact book
• add a keyboard key for your email address
• let musicplayer get a larger slideruler to control the "now playing" song/audiobook
• iphone brightness control instead of volume control in mutitask bar

DELETE ALL for email!!!

I want a brightness slider in the multitasking tray - all devices have hardware volume buttons so the iPhone and iPod do not need a volume slider- it's a pet peeve of mine that apple put that there when it's useless . GIVE US A CHOICE APPLE. WE WANT A BRIGHTNESS SLIDER!!

1) ability to delete alerts from home screen notifications. I've seen the missed call, I just want it off the screen!
(I suppose more "lock screen" type features)
2) bite SMS type quick reply

Easy, orientation changes from the home screen.

I'd like the ability to bounce emails. But that's gone from OS X, so it's highly unlikely. (I get a lot of emails sent to me by mistake.)

More flexibility w reminder repeats

1) Restore singular apps from iCloud backup (so I can e.g. delete a big game when I need space and then restore that app only when I want to play it again)
2) Brightness adjust instead of volume in app switcher (there are physical volume buttons!)
3) Future calendar events in lockscreen

The ability to mark all mail messages read and delete all mail messages in no more than 3 taps!!!

-More widgets just like the "Sbsetttings" when u JB!
-Homescreen to rotate!
-triple click the home button for flash light!

I mean I would love for my groups/categories along with their color codes to import. It can be partially done via iCloud but it messes with the contacts on Outlook too much. This is my biggest wish as my BlackBerry was able to do this along with being able to assign a ringtone to a group of people instead of one person at a time.

A 25% increase in battery life?

One of the things I would really like to see in iOS 5.1 (or any iteration of it going forward) is sound/notification profiles that can automatically go into effect at certain times of the day. I don't want my iPhone to make any sounds or vibrate while I am sleeping, but I want it to be able to make sounds and vibrate during the day.
Right now, I have to switch it to silent before I go to bed and go into the sounds setting page to switch the vibrate mode when silent to off. Then, when I get up, I have to reverse the process. It would be great if I could setup a profile that says something like between 10 PM and 6 AM, do not make any sounds (except for the alarm and phone calls) and do not vibrate. And then, from 6 AM to 10 PM allow all sounds and vibrations.
Oh, and if I could do it all with Siri, that would would be a definite +1

I'd like to see the Reminder and Calendar app have badges that display when you don't open an alarm. Many times, I'm on the phone or in a meeting and don't open every alarm that goes off on my phone. A badge on the app indicating a missed alarm/event/reminder would be nice. There are numerous 3rd party apps that have had this feature for a while ... no reason Apple can't add it. Why would they indicate an option for Badge App Icon in the Notification Center and not provide the capability to do so.

I thought we could disable imessage from sending SMS if imessage fails? I did that already..

Location-based reminders for 3G iPads.

Add the ability to choose vibrate as a notification choice separately for mail, messages, calendar, etc., rather than have to choose vibrate for all or none.

I wish there were a lot of improvements on Siri:
1 - More languages and places
2 - The ability to control apps or settings
3 - Extended device recognition (iPhone 4; iPod touch 4G; iPad 2; iPad 1)

I would like for my apps to stop crashing.

1) Show subfolder emails in "All Inboxes." Right now only emails in root inboxes show up, even though subfolders emails are in the Notification Center.
2) Revert back to the iOS 4 Music app on the iPad. The new Music app is horrible.

ability to add songs to a queue!!!!!! omg and a 'new tweet' widget in notification center!!!!!

Ability to print to PDF since workarounds are blocked in IOS 5. Technology provides mobility which means working without access to a printer, especially on a wi-fi only device.

Make Siri a part of iOS 5.1 for the iPhone 4.

Mail access timing requires, Say example Morning 9.00 till evening 5.00 mail not required at iPhone, rest of the time it is required. So to enable this feature time slot for push mail is required

It would be awesome if every 5.x update brings Siri to another iOS device.

Okay. This is not good. 3GS running ios5. Many crashes which result in a reboot. Apps crash and then the phone shuts off!
How many other 3GS owners are having similar problems? Yes. I did a restore.
Thnx

I want a lot , and am real pissed that they took some thing away , the ability to turn off the 2 beeps when you get a text what the hell is that all about? i hate it when I get a text and the thing beeps and I don't check it for a sec and the damn thing beeps one more, I feel like throwing the thing across the room, i know its small but I really don't like the 2 beeps. so on to what i want in ios 5.0.1 if nothing more than that was fixed I would be pleased. and would be nice if we could delete a photo out of photo stream ,add wifi, brightness, and blue tooth in the notification bar. siri needs to be able to open apps turn on and off wifi you know small things like that.

The ability to set profiles like Intelliborn's MyProfiles, which I believe (in my humble opinion) is an essential feature in any standard cell phone.

Independent Ringer and Alarm volumes. Seems pretty simple. You'd think after so many revisions they'd think of something like that...

Exactly!!!! I want iMessage to be a separate app!!

internet tethering would be great
