Yes, I'm aware of how the Android version functions but understand you are getting an animated wallpaper with literally no battery drain. I'm ok with that compared to a boring static wallpaper.
Expect hell to be a frozen place before that wish of yours is granted.

Quick replies for any and all messengers.
Optional chat heads for all messengers.

Weather widgets.

Widgets are great for quick glances. Just a calendar widget would be helpful. My iPhone screen is just a bunch of folders at this point. Every page looks the same.
The widget battery drain is simply not true. You can control how often you want them refreshed and most have minimal drain with normal usage. Let's be honest, the iPhone doesn't have widgets and it's battery performance leaves a lot to be desired. Many Android phones have Widgets and exceed the battery of the iPhone.
The two things I want most are Widgets and 3rd party keyboards.
Live wallpaper
Widgets
Set your own default apps
File system access
Different keyboard options
But as for the device itself
NFC, wireless charging, larger screen, IR port.
Basically steal some more from android than they already have.

I understand that it has been said before, but I defianetly llikek to see something like the picture below...
I would really like to see this screen when you unlock your device, or something close to this screen. I say, you tap on your photo of choice for your account, then, if you have a passcode, it would bring up the normal passcode screen on iOS 7, and if no passcode is on, it goes directly to the homescreen or where you left it off on. Each user coud have different passcodes. It would be amazing and easy!

It's not about the how easy it would be for apple to do it it's about how much more money can apple make by not doing it.
It seems to me like it's something a lot of people want to see. Just my thoughts though haha
I want it just as much as anyone else it just won't happen. Me and my family share a first gen iPad mini and iPad 3rd gen and yeah it sucks cuz no one can have their icloud on them or anything so what I usually do with games is make a choice for witch device I want to play it on but I really only use the 3rd gen iPad because I like the screen size a lot. But the worse part is sometime people play my games and mess everything all up or worse try and move the app icons!!!!!! No! I don't understand what's so hard to understand about the default apps not being moved! And then I have a certain order for all of the other apps but it's nothing like how I want it because every one wants something diffrent.
You mean from jailbreak community? Because that's where Android keeps stealing from. Besides, Android is a stolen OS from the day 1.
Did you just ask for Infra-red Port? Holly Jesus!!!
Yeah that must get very annoying. But yeah I guess you're right it probably won't happen but hey we can always dream
1. Swype - this is what kept me from switching to IOS for years (I just switched 3 months ago). I think I've been using it on Windows Mobile 6 and later Android since around 2007. Here we are 7 years later and still no swypelike keyboard for IOS? Pathetic. Hunting and Pecking is a very baby boomer way of approaching data entry, but then Apple is run by boomers so I guess it makes sense to them.
2. Global EQ - I thought apple portable devices were sworn by by music aficionados? On my Android devices, I have one EQ running in the background with different settings I just give a single tap to to tailor to where I am and what system I'm plugged or bluetoothed into, e.g., bedroom, a particular car, etc. The best I've been able to come up with is a few random music players that have graphic EQ that are a PITA to change settings in, or Apples Music Player EQ that has exactly one setting (I think it's "Late Night" that is mostly high/low compression?) that works globally across all sound output. Is this just because no one has written an app to do this, or is this Apple locking out app developers from doing this, like the above keyboard issue?

I'm really hoping it makes 7.1 my phone won't be getting iOS 8 I'm really sure. And I don't want to wait that long
A filesystem would be nice. Even an incredibly limited one would make my day.
Also, maybe allow it so you can stream your screen to your mac, and stream your mac to your phone. That way I could access my computer anywhere, at least, if it was on.
Oh, and I'd like there to be cydia on there by default, and no limitations on the phone, being 100% open to any kind of modification... Well, I can dream, can't I? (xD). That's never going to happen. EVER.
In fact, for that matter, here's all the things that would be nice in iOS. Most of this will never happen.
1. More customizability -- But, apple doesn't seem to like that. Not going to happen
2. Allow apps to be placed anywhere -- Probably not going to happen
3. Ability to stream you mac or PC's screen to the phone -- Might happen. There are apps for it right now, but they're expensive
4. A file system -- Yeah, RIGHT.
5. Like I said earlier, 100% unlocked -- HAH, rainbows will shoot out of my butt before that happens.
6. Flash player -- Let's admit it, Flash sucks. But it's so commonly used we really need it. But again, this will never happen.
EVER.
7. HDMI/Micro HDMI ports - I could see it happening someday. Not any time soon
8. USB Port - Eh, I could see it happening someday
9. Micro SD/SD slot - Maybe someday
10. Better support with XMBC -- When I airdrop with my RaspBMC(Raspberry pi XMBC port) it gets really glitchy. This might actually happen, seeing how they've accepted the XMBC remote app, meaning they're okay with XMBC

UI Overhaul
Mostly, a UI overhaul, towards the gorgeous iOS 6.
Improved optimization for better battery life.

I ment that would be cool to see on the new iPhone apple will release alongside iOS 8

Floppy disk support is next. Mark my words.

Commonly used? Flash is dead dude. Take it from our Flash developers now hard at retraining because there's no work for them aside from banners.
