What updates / fixes are you hoping for in iOS 6.0.1?

My iPhone 5 is presently sitting at 44% 6hrs 4 mins usage and 1day 8 hours Standby.

I have an iCloud account and 2 exchange accounts setup on it and a variety of apps. I think that the battery life is perfectly adequate.

Bugs: hopefully they will fix the Exchange calendar bugs.
 
Store And Podcasts App fixed

• Dreadful app store search
• Podcasts app is stupidly buggy

Battery life on i5 is much better for me, although my 4S used to frequently overheat so that probably drained it faster.
 
Battery life.
Bug fixes (the phone freezing when using the lock screen prompt to phone someone back is disturbing).
Do Not Disturb needs to be able to distinguish weekdays from weekends.
Safari needs to allow the location prompt for a site to be reset without having to reset the phone's entire privacy settings.
Facebook integration needs to allow you to disable birthday sync seperately from the rest of your Facebook calendar.
Put Google Maps back.
App store search results need to be restored to a list.
Enable iPhone 5 users to set the keyboard at the bottom of the screen if the app hasn't been updated to the new screen resolution yet.
Adjust the filtering algorithm in the iPhone 5 camera to try and reduce the chromatic abberation.

There are a million other things of course, but they're the pressing ones for iOS 6.0.1.

EDIT: Oh, and write permissions to the file system via USB restored to iOS5 levels!

1) Fix the damn graphical glitches with the app store keyboard and apps folders, it's a massive fail

2) Battery life drain on cellular data
 
that youtube videos are played at high quality again when on wifi. the current quality is way worse than on iOS5, so I guess it's a bug. also, when will they finally eliminate the stuttering when swiping from the home screen to spotlight? it can't be that hard to make the keyboard appear without a stutter... and it's the only time my iPhone 4s stutters, but it still annoys me as I want everything buttery smooth without buying the iPhone 5. :D

Google has already put out a new YouTube app which is many many many many times better than the app that Apple was supporting.

and yes i agree i would like google maps back. I really want it mainly for the traffic. I cannot rely on apple maps for traffic at all.
 
My wishlist for now:

- Fix App Store keyboard glitch
- Allow Youtube links to be configured to be opened by specified 3rd party Youtube Apps.
- App Store result in list form.
- Issue with iOS6 and Microsoft Exchange when meeting invites are received through iOS6, where entire meetings gets cancelled, with cancellation sent to all participants, when it's merely declined.

It's kinda unbelievable that there's still not 6.0.1 or 6.1 yet, as it's been a month since iOS6/iPhone 5 release....

Agree with the above though as long as Google's YouTube app continues to work, I'm fine with the way it is.

I'll add one more to the list: the bug where certain apps cause the phone's alert tone volume to drop to a low level, regardless of the position of the volume slider. For me, only a reboot will correct it. I've seen the issue posted several times on Apple's own support forums, so I know it's not just me.

A Siri that acknowledges the existence of St. Louis, Missouri and gives me the weather for it instead of St. Louis, Georgia and gives me scores for the St. Louis Cardinals game instead of the Stanford Cardinals when I ask for it.

Are you calling me a liar? She most certainly does, and she gives me the wrong answer every time.

Fixing of WiFi issues. When waking up from sleep, my iPhone has trouble reconnecting to my home network when signal strength is weaker. Never had that with iOS 5.
 
Fix whatever was busted with BT control capabilities between my Kenwood car head unit and my iPhone 3GS. I don't think it is specific to the Kenwood as I've seen multiple complaints from Pioneer, etc...

I don't know if they changed the AD2P settings or what. I just want to be able to be able to start my music from the stereo head instead of pulling out my phone to start/stop/change music.

Other than that, I really haven't had any issues with iOS 6 on either my iPhone or iPad (or the iPads I manage at work). The YouTube boondoggle isn't really an issue since you could always use the mobile site or now the Google App.

I totally agree, except for the last one. Keep both of them out please.
Apple maps has so far worked better for me and YouTube app from google on the app store is lot better then the crapy one that was integreted in iOS. Soon google will have it's maps app in the App store (which i have absolutely no intention to download it if it does not ofer something Apple maps doesn't, like the ability to use it Off line)

More than likely, at the very least the Google Maps app from Google will offer Street View integrated into it, which is already something more than the Apple Maps offer. Plus, it will likely include transit directions as well, which is also something not present in Apple Maps.

The Google YouTube app is fairly good, but they definitely need to add a few things, like volume control right in the app and an iPad version.
 
I really want the keyboard glitches to be fixed. And better battery life. I am only getting 4 hours 30 minutes to 5 hours of usage on 4G and I'm not talking about LTE. I've tried the whole battery calibration and the changes aren't really noticeable. Oh and idk if anyone else is having this problem, but when the phone is plugged up and fully charged, the battery on the lock screen never fills up all the way but my phone still says 100%. Anyways, those are my list of problems.

Cody, try resetting all settings. I went from 5 hours to around 8 after finally trying it.

Worked for me.

I'm not seeing most of the bugs that other people are. Siri recognizes St. Louis MO when I ask for weather there and asking if the cardinals won give me the St Louis Cardinals. Maybe you got your wish early?
 
I'd like the calendar app on the notification screen to only display the calendars I have selected within the main calendar app.
