if you could have any feature on your iPhone what would it be? it doesn’t matter how mad your idea may sound I would love to hear what you guys would love Apple to bring to the iPhone, my dream feature would be a projector, I do a lot of presentations in my day to day life and just to project my keynotes of my iPhone would be amazing.

I’d like an iPhone that will go to work for me every day.
A camera lens, equivalent to mirrorless or full-frame camera, why not a medium format?
For video it would be outstanding to have the quality of a RED or Alexa camera.

True dark mode. I know about Smart Invert, but it's not true dark mode and messes up some graphic elements of apps.

It was AMOLED. A little over a year later and I’m still geeking out over it. Although I wish it was 500PPI.
The ability to be able to schedule text messages.
- An "always-on" display now that we have AMOLED
- The ability to connect a monitor to the phone, to give a small iOS "desktop" just for simple things like e-mail, iMessage, web surfing, etc. Heard Samsung has this, called DEX I think
- Ability to remap certain Gestures... i.e move Control Center from top right to top left. Or even better, bottom left or right
- Make FaceID detect what orientation your face is... I.E so I can leave auto-rotate on, but have the phone know NOT to rotate when my face is sideways (like when I'm laying down)
- Ability to "hide" the notch... not that I want to, but more options never hurts! Might be a good way to compensate for some apps that don't support it yet (somehow).
FLIR and other brands actually have an attachment specifically for the iPhone. Problem is IR is very expensive and their resolution sucks. If you want something fun to play with, or to spot cyotes, or deer at a good price, I'd recommend this little sucker.

Customizable icon size and layout on home screen and dock. Also dark mode would be nice.
It would seem that customizable themes would take care of all of your needs.. and mine.
No notch. A truly edge to edge display.
Always on display. Should be simple for them to implement but I’m sure it won’t happen since they would rather push the watches. 
The ability to display screens on my monitors wirelessly, full HID support for my keyboard/mouse, and the ability to utilize my eGPU for Mac OS games so I can have one device for everything. OK I guess I'm 5-10 years early...
A headphone jack.
