I want offline Siri, manual Aperture/Shutter/ISO settings/White Balance on camera app, a built in manual equalizer on the Music App and heavily redesigned UI.
Isn't he an industrial designer and shouldn't software be done by software designers?
Changes in iOS 7? I gave up hope..... My next phone is something else.
IOS7 needs more customization, its that simple. The average user does not need to use the extra features but the more advanced users really want more freedom and options to make our idevices unique to our likes/dislikes. I can handle itunes controlling all the syncing ect but please allow us some freedom in other areas. IOS7 has so much potential if Apple is brave enough to realize it.
There are people who have great ideas, but can't see their full potential and there are people who have difficulty coming up with their own ideas, but know how to take someone else's to a whole new level.
iOS doesn't need major changes. The groundwork, for the most part, has already been set. My issue with it is that very little of it is fully realized or properly thought out.
I'd be content if iOS 7 simply streamlined, made everything fully work as promised (Maps, Siri, DnD), and gave us basic features that should have been implemented long ago- timestamps on messages, multiple user sign-in (a long overdue necessity for the iPad), quick toggles for WiFi, Bluetooth, brightness, etc, multi-finger gestures, and various other options that have been asked for since the beginning.

Sorry but your wish list is pretty weak lol
I'm not sure how much cleaner you want iOS to get, compared to the cluttered mess that is Android this is as clean as it gets.
I still contend that the organized cleanliness of iOS plus the seamless integration... coupled with jailbreaking makes it the best Mobile OS by far....... Of course the caveat there being jailbreaking which is not exactly a baked in feature.

No they can't. Because they really don't know what the OS is designed to do.
They simply think its needs to be changed, because some of the brain farts on the web have told them it's stagnant.
I agree that giving us too much UI customisation could result in iOS screens that look very non-Apple like, but I would like the chance to do a little more than change the wallpaper.
This. and to expand upon the bold, I believe
has a patent on face-recog log in? I'd love to see that, considering phones already exist which unlock via face-recog. I'd like to see a "swipe text" feature. I've been begging for that for years now. Multi-finger gestures for app switching. I'm sure I'll think of more.
As an aside, I am personally pretty satisfied with iOS. I've been a user since the 3G dropped, and have had no complaints. It seems a little stale now, but so would cheeseburgers if thats all you ate.
Me too. I don't understand why she needs an internet connection for everything that can be done locally.
I thought that since Jonny ive was in charge of ios, that he could do stuff to the design

I could be a stock UI that people might like and if they don't, then they could change it

2. conflicts with 1.

He can. And it's Jony, not Jonny.
Judging from your exhaustive list of "Hopes and Wishes," if you were a stock UI, I'd instantly change to anything else.
Did this person Jony Ive just arrive from an immaculate conception. The way some of you people talk about this person you don't even know, you would be under the impression you believe him to be the messiah.

Now that's funny.

No, though he is a Knight Commander of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire, which basically translates to "he's pretty badass".

- new camera functions, multi-shot feature or similar
- a way to select multiple apps

An airdrop feature would be awesome. And more siri improvements/features. And then the other 198 features are always my favorite. I always like finding/discovering all of the little things.
