Bring back the iPod icon! Heck just make it an iPod player, and have Apple Music a separate app that can populate your library. The library should just be able to support local and remote media. Then you can have Spotify as a service and have it leverage the iPod interface.
Then other companies can send you feature requests to enhance it, and you just code it. Yes I'm talking to Apple directly.

Yes, they “forgot” to implement it in the first betas. My hope was/is they will add it soon.
I don’t get why it isn’t in there in the first place.

I love the new music icon, I never liked the white one since it was first introduced.
Are you going to just keep posting your same wishlist every time there's an update about iOS 14? If so, we can all just mute you now and save ourselves having to read it over and over again.
Okay, i agree with a lot of this but you’re not going to get any of those things in iOS 14 so send your feedback to Apple and move on. 👍 Doesn’t do any good to keep spamming MacRumors with the same post.
Well, it didn't work too well when I used it. Wouldn't auto refresh and the daily forecast was severely broken.
To those wanting the Covid tracing thingy ...
Sure, many of us have installed the beta on our main/only phone but we're not meant to
The OS is all in beta status, and it's too risky for Apple to activate something that really can't have any major bugs in it.

Perhaps, but it's a regression and will be fixed eventually, it's just a matter of when.To those wanting the Covid tracing thingy ...

Everything else can have "major bugs" in it and still get's fixed.
We're in no position to determine how problematic this is to fix.
Someone mentioned that Apple would not dare touch it, since the implications of leaking private data was too great.
Could be, but I'm not so sure myself
I won’t really miss the weather widget on the phone, while Apple fine tunes the widget. I use “MyRadar” on my watch to check the weather.
It was a huge white icon before like dozens others, what’s your point?
Why would they replace an old icon with an even older icon, just to replace it with a new icon?
It's not a regression, as iOS 14 never had it to start with. iOS 14 started internally way before the ExposureNotification API was started, and they built it into iOS 13, to test it. It will eventually be integrated into iOS 14 in later betas/GM. Things like this happen in development all over the world. It's happened in previous iOS releases too, when things were needed to be released sooner, so were included in a .X release, rather than an X. release.
Yes, I was having problems during beta 1 and 2 where it kept dropping to 3G and other issues.
Go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
I did that whilst on B2 and it nearly fixed all issues, only had them rarely.
For B3, my internet worked for about 2 seconds then dropped off. Doing the reset didn't work. Weirdly, this may just be a coincidence but I connected my laptop to my phone via hotspot and it kicked into action.
I believe they've fixed some hotspot issues in B3, because some testing since has found that my laptop will locate and connect to the iPhone much more reliably. Maybe that's why connecting to hotspot helped?
I would have no idea, but I would imagine this would be rather isolated and with modular implementation you would be able to implement this fairly quickly and without affecting too much (this is a beta after all, so it will be tested)
Now, with the situation around the world as it is, wouldn't it make sense to get this implemented in iOS 14 sooner rather than later?
Still, it's a question of prioritization - it will appear eventually
Apple's internal builds are much further ahead than us, so they will already be testing it. All they have to do is regression testing after integrating it. I work with a large Dev team, so I know it's not as you think it is, to integrate it and test it.
