Rumours of the next iPhone/iPhones are coming earlier than any other idevice I have seen.
With that in mind what is the one plausible feature you would add if you had the key to the factory?
Mine: NFC mobile payments
Widgets?
I hope not. I have a Nexus and I can't stand them. They are pointless. It's a quick glance at what, weather,mail ?? Simple pull down from the notification center. They are redundant IMO. The toggle switches are ok but I'd rather see them in NC or the task switcher than on one of the pages. I guess if you tweet and have your head in Facebook all the time they might be useful, I don't know as I rarely use either.
I'm having a hard time coming up with anything, as widgets are ugly and toggles need to be done properly IMHO.
I guess I'd shoot for live icons.. I couldn't care less about NFC/Fingerprint.
Mine: NFC mobile payments
Being able to see just my unread emails in the email app. I know....That's software but that's the feature that I want.
Finger print sensor.
A widget where you could quickly alter wifi and internet setting would be most welcome.
1. Stability to come in iOS7 that ships with it. iOS6 breaks so easily, needs restarts more often than my old Win98 computers did.
Wireless charging would be nice and allow us to cut the cable; at least at home
i buy everything online so useless for me
----------
email is dead, everything is live instant message now, i've not used email outside work for a few years now
----------
to use for what?? i dont even have a passcode on my phone
----------
why?? i just leave mine on and it sorts its self out, i've not opened the wifi setting since i connected to my router
----------
my ip4 has never been switched off in 2 years apart from ios updates doing it
i charge mine when i'm sleeping so no benefit
Working on the basis that an update for the 5s would be hardware based rather than changes to iOS (which would apply to the 5 and possibly 4s too), I'll go for a notification light under the home button
