Medications widget on phone
Enhanced Notes app comparible to OneNote
A fucking calculator app on iPad
A ‘do not switch’ mode for AirPods temporarily so my work phone doesn’t disconnect my Mac headphones
@Venicon The iPad calculator is an obvious one that I missed. I’ll add that to my list for next time.
And you aren’t the only one who’s mentioned Health app improvements. The medication feature needs to be more visible and easier to log than just the timed notification that it sends.
Edit: Some of my replies are not showing up on Lemmy. Maybe I need to tag @apple_enthusiast
For the most part I think having something like the Health app to store all your health data is brilliant, it just needs a wee bit more refinement. Would also like to see some of the options added as widgets!
I’d really like to see better integration between “Hide my email” and Passwords.
@apple_enthusiast Note for Mastodon readers: I cross posted this to Lemmy. Let’s see how it works!
Viewing and posting from Memmy on iOS, for what it’s worth!
Good list. Would like to see the separate volumes, especially when it comes to CarPlay. I have notifications silenced generally so nbd for me, but my ears explode when my dad gets a text in his car. If he turns down the alert volume then the call volume goes too, so he just leaves it at “tinnitus inducing” at all times.
Clipboard history would also be pretty great.
@anolemmi It’s supposed to be automatic as to which volume level is adjusted. For example, if you adjust the volume while Siri is speaking, it adjusts the Siri volume (only). But I find it tricky to quickly grab the phone and adjust it before Siri stops talking.
It’s understandable that users are confused that invisible volume levels are being adjusted; and either the one they wanted was not adjusted or others were adjusted unintentionally.
Edit: tag @apple_enthusiast
Hmm well we’ve tried when the notification alert is playing to lower the volume from the car radio volume, but that seems to change both (or all) volumes the same. I suppose that makes sense and we need to change it with the phone volume buttons, but still as you said this is invisible and non-intuitive and can easily be done better by Apple.
@anolemmi Hmm. This reply didn’t get mirrored to Lemmy.
Not sure exactly what you’re seeing but this comment came through just fine on my instance, lemmi.social.
However this does seem to be one of the current known issues/limitations with Lemmy, comments not always mirroring out to all the instances. I see comments all the time that appear to be replying to nobody, for some reason the parent comment doesn’t always make it to my instance.
It’s definitely more often than just the occasional case of somebody deleting a comment.
Apple Watch: ability to choose separate faces for always-on-display power states. Set one face for the low power setting (for example, an aesthetic/stylish face), and a different face for the active state (for example, a more info dense face for practicality).
@acosmichippo More customization in that area would be great.
The closest you can get to that today is to set Watch faces based on the Focus mode you are using. But that isn’t going to be linked to the low-power setting.

I’d like to be able to have icons on my home screen for various parts of the health app. Every time I open it, I have to back out of whatever the last thing I used was.
These are what I can think of that I'd like to see, in no particular order:
@apple_enthusiast (Part 2/2) And here are items from last year’s list that were delivered in 2023. 🎉
- Multiple timers

- ✅ iOS 17/macOS Sonoma
What are your favorite new features? What else is missing?
No one predicted shared passwords? Those are pretty useful
Is landscape Apple Music on iOS still incoming? It’s not there for me.
@Scooter411 Only works in Standby mode (when your phone is charging and is upright on its side). I wish it was a more complete implementation. @apple_enthusiast
