Other iPhone feature you want?

[Black_Mage]

With the iPhone being out for almost 20 years, Apple has managed to cram a lot of features into the iPhone. It’s difficult for me to imagine what else Apple can add. If you could get ahold of John Ternus and have him add one feature, what would it be?

I would have him add a duress PIN. I think that’s an amazing feature that Apple should have added a long time ago.

I use a duress PIN to protect my data — here’s how it works and why everyone needs one

A duress PIN is a secondary PIN that triggers a complete and irreversible wipe of your device, making it useless to any attacker.

There are many jailbreak tweaks that I would like Apple to implement. Fortunately, some of them (for better or worse) have already happened.

But, as of this particular moment and because I was thinking about it yesterday, being able to send a text from the lockscreen would be nice. And I'm not talking about replying to one, I'm talking about starting one. Right now, if you want to send a text, you have to unlock the phone, open the Messages app, find the thread you want (or start a new text) and then put in your message and send.

With BiteSMS, sending from the lockscreen was possible.

Another would be the equivalent of Activator, being able to redesignate physical buttons, taps and swipes for whatever you wanted them to be.

And Netaltalk would also be cool. Connecting to your iDevice as a shared drive from your Mac. iFile, being able to explore the file directory of your iDevice from the device itself (beyond what the Files app gives you). Netatalk and iFile were instrumental to getting transparent widgets on my homescreen.

Oh! And weather animations from the weather app as an overlay (with transparency) on the lockscreen and homescreen. I had that for years.

Just a few for now.

• Pattern-swipe to unlock; I like it a lot more than entering a PIN.
• A feature like the "My Filters" option in the Samsung photos app which allows you to make a filter that matches the color tone/grading of any other photo in your album. I used an app like that on iPhone many years ago, but it would be better if it could be done natively in the iOS Camera app.
• More control over the interface; colors, fonts, sounds, etc.
• A DeX-ish desktop option for iOS.
• A micro-SD card slot, which I know will never happen but I can still dream.

Personally what I would love to see from Apple again regarding new iPhone features are the following:

- 120 Hz Promotion Display in 5.4 inch form factor
- small dynamic island
- Same screen brightness and dimming as Pro series iPhones
- Latest Axx Pro processor with a minimum of 12GB RAM
- updated MagSafe charging
- Silicone Carbon battery for longer battery life
- Latest Bluetooth/WiFi
- USB-C 3.0 port
- 48 megapixel main fusion camera/48 megapixel Telephoto or Ultra Wide Angle camera

and available in the colors the 12 mini or 13 mini came out in.

Make this a separate mini line with storage configurations starting at 256GB, 512GB and 1TB.

Of course this is a pipe dream however wouldn't it be nice if Apple would put one of these iPhones out? You know they are capable of doing this but unfortunately I doubt we would ever see something as amazing as this in real life but since the title of this thread is "other iPhone feature you want" this is what I would want for a new iPhone.

Let me change the dock, or remove it entirely, total control of the home screen
