Give me automation/shortcuts that match macrodroid and tasker. Right now, I can’t even automate when my phone turns on vpn or not. iOS thinks it’s users are 6 year olds. Here you have this beautiful piece of powerful hardware that is pretty much wasting away as an expensive media viewer rather than the powerful tool for work it could be.

We need the equivalent of a Snow Leopard release, which was focused on performance and tightening up the code and less on new features.
A desktop tower that can have 2,5” ssd for extra storage without needing pci-e adapter cards and not starting at $5000!
iOS performance is great, at least for me. It should be since it’s incredibly locked down and simple. What we need is a complete rethinking of what iOS needs to be. Many business/tech users need the ability to customize the phone for their needs and iOS just isn’t designed for that. Simply, we need OS X on the phone. The hardware is ready.
the upgrade of ram from 16gb to 32gb should cost no more than $200.

In 2022 I want Apple to admit that they have slipped in product quality, in privacy and security, etc. Among other things, I want them to admit that the inventors of CSAM are correct in calling the technology dangerous, and to agree with security experts and customers on the issue. They have no business building front doors to their devices when there are already leaks and holes that keep happening. I don't even need them to fix anything, since I no longer expect that from them. I just want them to admit that they are wrong about something and to stop sabotaging their own devices. But I don't believe they will change anything. I expect them to keep heading the same direction in terms of product quality and privacy/security. I am just answering the question.
1. Get back to Privacy as a default not just for everyone else but Apple too!
2. Don’t release software before it’s ready. We don’t need new versions every year.
3. Adequate base level memory 8gb is just not enough 32 gb should be a minimum.
4. Stop making devices unfixable or non-upgradable. Make an effort to work with the right to repair issue.
5. Mac Pro’s should be more powerful by a large margin or less time between refreshes. Infinitely upgradable to the next version of OS.
I’m sure there’s a lot more but this is right of the top of my head.

Bring back the fingerprint sensor, get rid of Face ID entirely! It’s always been crud anyway
WTH are you talking about? FID works great for me. Far fewer fails than TouchID EVER had. It was one of the reasons I went with a new iPP, because it has FID. Sure on the phone it has an issue with masks. but there is a workaround for those, and they won't be with us forever. I have FID on my iPhone and iPP, and LOVE it.
Fix SIRI. Bring back touchID on every phone.

Stop paying off and enriching China and their manufacturing base. Invest seriously more in US manufacturing.
1) A phone-size (4") iPhone
2) Elimination of iOS's easter-egg interface, where so many hidden features, swipes, clicks and pinches are useless and annoying. I either can't easily do what i want, or I'm constantly doing something i DON'T want, by accident.
3) A final (NOT fond) farewell to FaceID - the worst user experience Apple has foisted on users in a long time.

The minute a Mac Mini with M1 Max is announced, I'll buy one. I really want the new hardware but don't want or need a laptop. EGPU capability would be really great too.
I wouldn't hold my breath for a Threadripper Mac Pro... ?
Like all three of these, although #3 reminds me that I'd also love to see better UI scaling in Mac OS. Every app does not need to run at the same effective resolution.
