iOS 27 Wishlist

The same things from every year:
- Overhaul notifications and control centre for better one handed access by making better use of the multitasking screen.
Have notifications sat in a stack at the bottom of that view ready to fan upwards like on the lock screen.
Move control centre to the RH side of the card stack.
On the lock screen get rid of the slide to open gesture for the camera and put the control centre in its place.

History proves that more memory and increased storage just leads to lazier development and bloat. Kind of like when you finally buy that standalone chest freezer because you are struggling to fit everything in the refrigerator's freezer. Fast forward two weeks and that chest freezer is full too.
Ummm... no. It's a wishlist. A lot of people wish for Liquid Glass to be abandoned or dramatically improved. Not all wishes will be granted, but all wishes are valid.
Mostly I just want a steady refining of iOS without falling for ‘gimmick of the day’ style development. However, one specific thing I do want is I would like to see landscape home screens now that iPhones are all big enough.
Also, it’s time for Siri to get up to speed. I don’t want a digital assistant chat bot, but they seem really popular, so it’s important to get it sorted ASAP.

I think it’s time for more memory in phones. Also, yeah landscape screens.
Can’t agree with that last one sadly, I just love Liquid Glass, most of the other ones are solid or irrelevant for me personally but I really would like Dynamic Island to be switched (ie: long press opens music app and tap opens the drop down for now playing)
Smaller less bulkier widgets.
I’d love widgets the size of two joined app icons side by side.

i would love a better way of moving apps into folders, like a way to do it in the settings app, clicking the app and choose what folder the app will reside in.
I’d like to see customisation of double and possibly triple tap of the action button.
Would be nice to hold for silent/ring and then double-tap for flashlight for example.
And an option for getting rid of that floating bar on top of the keyboard that invariably floats over whatever you’re typing so you can’t see anything.

No
No and the only people who want something like this is a small amount of Tahoe Users who have upgraded from Sequoia who now regret this decision because of no Firewire support
🤦♂️
1. It was limited back then and only the A12X and later Pros and the M1 Air had this feature
2. All iPadOS 18 devices besides the 7th generation iPad got OS 26 so no point
3. Split Screen view is coming back to iPads with OS 26.1
BUT YOU MUST…. for one thing…. Adaptive Power Mode.
THIS. 100% THIS. just deactivating WiFi/BT ( they think it’s fully turned off via control center when they don’t know that it isn’t) and turning on Cellular ( since I see people do all 3 of them at once ) not only obviously drains the battery but is a big part of the reason that contributes to Battery Capacity being drained over time
But besides this I HATE having to do this through settings.
This dumb****ery of a setting is a considerable part of the reason why iOS 11 sucked. The last good iPhone/iPad which you could fully turn off Wi/Fi/Bluetooth was the A10X Pro’s when that got iOS 10.
If Apple gives us this ability to turn off WiFi/Bluetooth in a future OS 26 update then it will make the XS/XR/7th gen iPad more redundant ( more the XS/XR because of they’re smaller 500 cycle count batteries and the fact that they could have gotten iOS 26
Battery life yes for the 15/14 Pro and under. 15 Pro/16/e and so forth have adaptive power mode which helps a lot with this
I assume you mean when using the control centre, as it is of course very easy to turn both those things on/off. You can simply ask Siri, or long-press on settings and select the one you want to toggle.
Or, create a shortcut which toggles WiFi and/or Bluetooth on/off and add that to the control centre.
No I want to turn off WiFi/BT exactly how it was supposed to through the control centre before iOS 11 changes things
It’s super annoying to do this via settings. It’s weird that you can turn on WiFi/BT through control centre but you can’t fully turn them off in Control Centre but you can fully turn Cellular off from CC
Not sure what you’re talking about. The multitasking system I want back as an option has been in iPads for almost a decade and was not limited to any certain models iirc.
The only way around it, considering Apple seems to think everyone wants Bluetooth on all the time (I guess for Find My / Airtags?) is to remove that stock widget from the CC and add your own shortcuts. Create two - one called Bluetooth and one called WiFi with only one action in each - to toggle the respective thing. Then put those as icons on your CC.
The downside of this is that, without doing something clever, the shortcut icons don't give any hint as to what state your Bluetooth or WiFi are in. My solution was to leave the 2x2 stock widget in the CC and simply use it for the glowing icons showing status.
Huh? What? We are talking about iOS, not macOS. There is no shortage of users here who dislike iOS 26. And I am sure there are more than a small amount of users who dislike Tahoe for more substantial problems than support for archaic hardware.
My 15 PM (100% battery health) last 3 days for me with 25-30% battery left in the tank…so no thanks😅
Prevent Photos from scrolling to the top when you miss a button.
Or give a scroll to the bottom.

You misunderstood me, or I didn’t explain well.
I want and NEED Bluetooth enabled constantly.
I wear Bluetooth hearing aids. If Bluetooth isn’t enabled I can’t make or receive phonecalls.
But there’s a whole bunch of apps that I don’t EVER want or need to activate Bluetooth. When they activate Bluetooth they **** up my hearing aids.
Browsers I want better control over using Bluetooth. Sometimes I want to listen to videos in a browser. Mostly I don’t. But I want the choice there.
