Re: Your wild, outrageous, "know full well it'll never happen" Apple pipe-dream

Scroll back up. My iPhone 5 on iOS 6. The icons are a little different. Easier to see. Many things like the font on the calendar app got harder to see. Also with iOS 7, the whole system got a brighter white that I don't like. Many things became low contrast and difficult to see and read. Text looks washed out.


I see what you're saying now. I do somewhat agree, too. I didn't see it before because I shiny'd on the glass icons lol.

--------------------------------

Things I'd like to see, but know it'll never happen;

1: Option to remove battery icon and only show battery percentage.
2: App drawer.
3: Contact avatars IN text messages.
4: Read receipts for non iMessage messages.
5: Ability to remove carrier name from the status bar.
6: A muted sound icon on the status bar when the phone is in mute mode

App drawer? Why? We have the purchased list in the App Store and folders on the screen. What purpose for an app drawer?

Because that's Sherry's "pipe dream", just like yours is old style icons. Everyone doesn't want the same thing. Take a look at the thread title.

To get those god awful folders off my screen. I want one screen with nothing but icons on the doc. The clutter of icons or folders drives me absolutely crazy. Even on my dual monitor setup for my PC, no screen icons. None on my laptop either. Hate em. I don't like clutter.

That's why I use folders. It keeps my app groups organized.

Folders inside of an app drawer is nice (I had it set up that way on my previous phone). When it comes to how things look on my electronics I either like minimalism or extremely custom. I see no point in a pretty wallpaper if it's covered by ugly folders and icons. I know I can do this via two screens on my phone, but I prefer just one screen. Just a dream. :)

I do have two screens right now.. second screen is full of folders.

Many do it like that where most used is on screen one and folders on screen two. I currently have 288 downloaded apps. And I like them all on the first screen. LOL

Sounds like my fiance on his development machine. I don't know which there is more of; desktop icons or browser tabs. I shudder every time I go in his office and see his screen lol.

1. Bigger battery
2. Bring back the diamond cut edges (like 5/5s)
3. Make the face match the color of the phone. (ex. rose gold phone should have a rose gold face etc.)

I would be satisfied with a bigger battery or even a removable battery.

1: I want a black iPhone again. Black. Not space gray. Black.

2: Customizable control center.

3: Better battery life.

4: 128g replacing 16g as the standard storage size.

5: Stereo front facing speakers. I miss this a lot from my android phone.
