To Everyone That Reads This Forum And Has An iPhone

I would just like to add that I send in feedback using this method pretty regularly.

As an example roughly 6 / 10 of the films (movies) I have requested have appeared on the iTunes Store within 2 weeks.

So although not directly relevant to iPhone feedback, at least we can assume that Apple definately to respond to the feedback we provide, and it's gotta be better than moaning on forums about missing features. Tell someone who can do something about it.

Keep it up guys (and girls)
 
yeah i just sent my 4th one using different names and emails all legit but hey ..I want what i want and i want it now`

its not about them knowing about these requests. Im sure they already knew as you so sarcastically put it.

We are trying to get alot of iphone user to request these features and apple just can't ignore so many requests we want them to give in.
.
in one of my requests i said. please listen to your market base or eventually some of them might not be there in the future.

and said something along the lines of i wont buy future iphones unless these features are included

1. Apple can afford to ignore whoever they want. They are aware of what people want and when it's economically beneficial for them to implement these ideas- they will do it.

2. Apple has no problems with market base. Some users in this thread have said that even if Apple doesn't use these ideas they will still buy a new iPhone when it comes out.

Bombarding them with feedback requests is useless unless you have some sort of novel idea that hasn't occurred to them. Do actually think Apple isn't doing research on its own as to what people want?
 
yeah they can afford it now. But dont you think over time if apple keeps ignoring requests from their consumers . that people wont get sick of it ?

The problem is that y'all assume the majority of people buying the iphone give a damn about any of those features. Even without all these so called features the iphone just got rated by JD Power as the phone with the highest customer satisfaction. As long as the iphone is viewed by the media and people as a must have device, Apple doesn't have any problem selling them. Every new smartphone coming out is viewed as some sort of iphone killer. Seems Apple is doing something right. Building a desirable product is not always about loading it up with features.
 
Obama will put an iphone in every hand. He's an Apple user.

Nokia, Samsung and Motorola need to find new lines of business.

A great idea that I would hope many have been already doing, as we all know, the concept of voices in great numbers is often the path to success. I'm the OP of "Reached max apps, now what Apple?" and I did submit feedback on removing the iPhone app limit and/or creating a folder system.

Here's my list. Will add to it as I come up with other individual ideas...

- Turn-by-Turn navigation (TomTom app, preferably!)
- MMS
- Cut/Copy/Paste
- 3G Tethering (O2 UK)
- iWork / MS Office apps
- Podcast downloads
- ITMS over the air
- Bluetooth data sync (contacts, calendars etc, not iTunes/Photos/Apps)
- Bluetooth file exchange
- Video recording
- Landscape SMS
- Multiple delete in SMS (like mail)
- SMS Forwarding

Excellent list. I submit the additions: ability to view/accept meeting requests and some mechanism to search email etc.
 
I'll start sending it in.

Honestly, I switched over to another smartphone for day-to-day stuff and have been enjoying my iphone as an ipod touch. It came down to what I needed more day-to-day: multimedia or strong PIM/organizational stuff. I could have carried a PDA for the org stuff and an iPhone for the multimedia, or gotten a different smartphone and relegated the iPhone to multimedia. I chose the latter because I desperately needed a to-do system that was fully functional, that synced with my work and home computer, and a better calendar system.

I'll return to using my iPhone full-time as a phone if Apple opens up the calendar on the SDK and truly allows 3rd parties to improve the PIM. The half-assed stuff just wasn't working for me, I tried.
 
I just sent another request for new features. I hope that it will do some good so that the Iphone stays competitive with any new phones coming out.
 
all i really want is the keyboard to move into landscape with sms or any other app that uses it.
 
here is what i wrote... maybe on day they will listen. or not.

i would really like to see the following features in the future

landscape email and sms
mms
system wide cut and paste
word and excel document editing and emailing
flash support
wmv, divx, etc... support

thank you for giving us a place to offer suggestions.

If this method is efective we would have seen results already. You know, copy and paste, real MMS, real SMS, global search and on and on. I think the suggestion box goes straight to the trash.
