    • ability to auto-update specific apps, and prevent others from auto-updating
      • EDIT: nope, wasn't announced
    • manually add words to the dictionary
      • EDIT: nope, wasn't announced
    • hide native apps from your home screen
      • EDIT: Yep
    • choose default browser to something other than safari
      • EDIT: nope, wasn't announced
    • assign custom sounds to app notifications (i don't thnk you can do this already?)
      • EDIT: nope, wasn't announced

      • EDIT: nope, wasn't announced
    • 3rd party app siri integration (ex: "siri, open up waze and navigate me home")

    A way to turn off all the alarms that are set would be solid. I often set multiple for the mornings and trying to find em to turn them off is annoying

    I really wish that Apple improves the Apple Music user experience (and by doing so improve the iTunes experience as well). Both the mobile music app and iTunes have too many features for applications which are supposed to be slim and easy. In the end, the situation is kinda like SXN80 1.0

    Apple needs Slyk, Loya and Mike :whew:

    What about visual voicemails via FaceTime? That'd be solid, and actually surprising they haven't done it already now that I think about t.

    A way to pan through your route on Maps, similar to Waze.

    This works with Cortana, and since Siri is based on Bing as well I guess this might be coming

    3rd party integration of camera filters could be cool or dumb at the same time.

    I'm not even wanting iOS X to be a glorious, huge-a--- release with features which are cool but complicate the system. As long as my phone is working and as long as I can tell my always about their Android phones compaining friends that my phone never f---s up, I'm happy. Really happy.

    when doing a screenshot, have the option of limiting only a portion of the screen to take a screen of. ex: hitting both buttons shows a moveable overlay (similar to when cropping a photo) where you can control the 4 corners to limit the size. tap the screen once and it saves the screen.

    This reminded me that it'd be cool to have a built-in voicemail-to-text message thing, so you don't have to check your voicemail. That's how it's done at my work, I get an email in outlook with a transcribed voicemail.

    Plus I'd like everything in the OP, good ideas.

    Oh, and make their systems faster. Apple promised to speed up older devices with iOS9 but in fact, the iPhones are slower than ever before. That's pretty dissappointing since it is absolutely possible to not slow down older devices with new software.

    They do this on purpose to force people to upgrade to newer devices.
