I want Apple to stop artificially limiting media store on the Apple Watch.
On 7.2 it seems to be limited even further, down to 4GB. WTAF??

I’d like a lot more QC in software and hardware. Apple please fix the iPad touch issues. Also, comfortable AirPods Max Sport with the same ANC as the current models. I loved the APM, but their fit was a miss for me. 
I am enjoying my M1 MBP, so I look forward to the smaller M chip iMac.

No please, no! Remove it from all devices instead! Or at least make it optional so that every device is available without it as well.
I would really like to see an integrated operating system for all devices, and no explanations, please, of why it cannot be done because we all know that it can. My Mac, iPad, iPhone and Apple watches might not all have everything, but at least they could share the functions and features each was designed for. I am weary of all the permutations of apps and updates of operating systems which merely impede most of us; slow down, simplify, and stop sending us bugs which then require, oh, horsepiffle, even more permutations.... User-friendly would be a good place to start.
I’d like to see Apple go to an 18-24 month release cycle for macOS. This 12 month crap is horrible. Take pride in your software, Catalina was s**t.

Decent customer service. Your customer service is as bad as your BIG SOUR!!!
In our What to Expect article that we shared yesterday, we covered everything that we think we'll see from Apple in 2021 based on current product rumors and historical release data.
New, more powerful Apple silicon Macs with redesigns, iPhone 13 models with upgraded cameras, new Apple Watch models, and updated AirPods are in the works, plus we're expecting to finally get the AirTags and a new Apple TV.
We know what we think we'll see in 2021, but we want to hear from the MacRumors community. What are you hoping to see Apple release this year?
Are there new features you want to see in iOS 15 or macOS 12? Apple Smart Glasses? Updated iPhone features?
Let us know what you want to see in the comments, and take a look at our What to Expect article for a look at the current rumors. We'll learn more about Apple's 2021 product plans during the first months of the year, and as always, we'll have in-depth rumor coverage here at MacRumors.com.
Our MacRumors forums are also an excellent resource for discussing upcoming products and rumors, and with the most exciting Mac refreshes we've seen in years on the horizon, our forums are the place to be for discussions on what's next.
Thank you to all of our readers and our forum members for continuing to make MacRumors the number one site for Apple news, rumors, and advice on the web. We've been around for more than 20 years now, and that's all thanks to you. We look forward to another year of rumors in 2021 and all of the years to come. Happy New Year!

Another thing I would like to see: Apple somehow needs to separate Apple users somehow according to level. I am not very computer savy but I really try. People that will allow you, should have an ID and you can rate them if/when you are helping them with problems. 99% of my problems with the computer is me, not the computer. If I had a low rating, when the rep sees my ID and what my rating is, they better know how to help me. You do not have to let us see our rating, just the Apple employees. Then you know whether a "computer whiz kid is having problems or an old lady like me that does not know much. Also, you assign me employees with less knowledge and the Apple employees that can deal with the whiz kids get assigned to them. It would not be a perfect system but it is a start.

2021 better be the year that a new design generation appears. If Apple was waiting to get their own silicon on point then this is the time for a new generation of hardware. One can only hope.🤞
I'm not saying that Messages lags when I type, but trying to select emoji from emoji drop down is way slower compared to other apps like whatsapp/telegram. And no I do not need to reinstall my macOS, believe me I know when my mac is slow and when it is not. Also try to open a photo when someone sends - when you click on a photo it "gets selected like text" (i don't know how to describe that effect), if you don't double click at the right speed preview does not open. I'd recommend you trying other chat apps on macOS and you will see that Messages is at stone age.
Well MagSafe is coming back (fingers crossed), what is PITA is it food? I don't get you stance on magsafe, why does it bother you? i bet you'd still be able to charge your macbook with usb-c, so if you hate magsafe you can just not use it.
Are you anitvaxer and corona denier? have you tried unlocking your phone when wearing a mask? Have you seen iPad air with touch id in power button?
I really don't get your point, you don't want features on your macbook/phone? strange.
Homepod 2 with slightly lower price, U1 chip, and support for iTunes libraries over LAN.
Apple TV 6 with AV1 support and U1 chip.
iPhone 13 Mini with Lidar, 120hz display and better battery.
That will do it for me.

I want to see Apple take its TV efforts more seriously, and I’m not talking about just a spec bumped Apple TV hardware update. Apple needs to start making the TV App a true competitor to Hulu and Netflix rather than a hub that augments its own competition. License more material for Apple TV Channels (get Peacock and Discovery+ onboard as channels at the very least), make more frequent original content for TV+, overhaul the TV App interface, News+ integration for live news and video clips (hell maybe even give us TV channels for stations like CNN MSNBC and Fox, among others) and a new Siri Remote that isn’t easy to lose and adds more buttons for more functions.
Netflix’s CEO pointed a finger at Apple recently saying they aren’t trying as hard as they could be with their TV ventures, and I agree. Make this year the year Apple TV is as much of a juggernaut as the Apple Watch and iPad are in their industries.
