Hi everyone~

I'm new here, and this video is my idea about improvement of iPhone(iOS).
Please have patience to watch the video below.(2 Mins)


Welcome for watching and sharing my ideas.
Thank you~

Nice video (well made). I like some of those ideas a lot!
 
I think maybe you should send the link of this video to apple via apple feedback. Also copyright your ideas so incase apple do decide to use it then you will get your share of the $$.
 
Great work! Would love to see some of these on the newest firmware update, especially the Quick Reply!
 
man that video was too good i had to stop watching it. all the ideas were fantastic, and i couldn't bear watching more. so many simple and great ideas -- why have we been stuck on basically the same form for 3 years??
 
It's nice, but a lot of those can be done with just jailbreaking your iDevice. I know the one with text notifications; there's an app for the somewhere in the jailbreak community. It's not entirely the same but very similar. Can't remember what it's called though so ill have to look it up. Want to say either BiteSMS or the other SMS jailbreak tweak.
 
"Tap on the bottom of the icon to see (...)" - Don't you think that is kinda hard ? I mean the icons are really small and close to each other... :confused:

For one, there is no jailbreak for iPhone 5...and two, why should you have to jailbreak to have basic features on a $700 phone?
 
Kudos to you for having actually useful ideas. Even if they exist in the JB community, some of these ought to exist in iOS now. I buy Apple so I dont have to tweak, if I planned on JB'ing, I'd just go buy something running android.
 
Makes you wonder why the OP can come up with these ideas, but release after release of iOS remains stagnant...

Half the new items in the past several iOS releases were from the JB community.
 
Some ideas were good, some weren't. Obviously everything would need much better execution, but it's a decent start.

You're right, the iPhone 5 w/ iOS 6 totally lacks basic features and is pretty much useless unless jailbroken. :rolleyes:

After finally watching the video, this from zbarvian is pretty much exactly how I feel. I'll also throw in that the video itself would also benefit from better execution. But a decent start indeed.

I agree, they're too small to just click the bottom. Also, that feature would defeat the purpose of the Notification Center which is just "pull-down"
 
I really like the quick reply feature. Really hope that apple implements it! Will be awesome if it's also extended to working outside of the lockscreen so that you don't have to close the app you're in :)

Think that maybe touching the bottom of the app might be a bit fiddely for those with big clumsy fingers (like me :p)
