Well since we're talking about Reminders ( which I use many times a day and love how they sync between my iPhone & iPad) they don't sync to my new MacBook Air because I sync my calendar with Google.

Even though Reminders is a separate app in Mountain Lion, they are group together with calendar for syncing purposes.

So the only way to have them sync (MacBook Air, iPhone & iPad) is to sync your calendar to iCloud

So what I'm doing is accessing Reminders through iCloud.com if I have to use my MBA.

Go Figure

iOS 7 Wants

My biggest want is gesture control on the iPhone like we have on the iPad. I'd like to be able to operate my iPhone completely via gesture and not use the home button at all. The one thing I really miss about webOS :/

I think That Apple has lost there ability to think of new ideas, And with that said, Android will steal the market soon...I am diehard Apple freak, but the apple ios6 update was lame.

j benj,
This might help a bit.
Have you tried enabling AssistiveTouch
Setting>Accessibility>AssistiveTouch.

This places a floating sphere on your screen which you can move around.
Allows you to lock, increase and decrease vol, mute, Home, and double tap Home
Works on iPhone and iPad.
Some love it and other find it gets in the way and is annoying.
Some have also reported that enabling this sometimes prevents you screen from going into auto-lock.
I use it because I hate pressing that home button. The only time I hit the home button is to wake the phone up.

Good Luck

How about revising the search in the App Store to show results in a list rather than individual cards.

Double-click your home button.

I think what he's talking about like I said too is the full music player from the home screen when you double click the home button. Instead of the dinky ass forward, back, play/pause, volume. You would be able to see your whole playlist, switch to songs, etc.

That's true. But you don't need to be on the same Apple ID.

not true you can share Reminder Lists to different Apple IDs the same for Calendars. It has to be done from either iCloud.com or from Reminders on the Mac. You open Reminders go to the list you want to share and click the little Wifi/Radar looking thing to the right of the list. Then you enter the email address @icloud.com or me.com and bam it's shared.

I would love to see developer API for widgets in the notification center, slide to delete individual notifications in the notification center, better attachment handling in the email app, the ability to choose default apps, editable results with Siri like in google now, offline functionality for Siri(like offline dictation), animated icons or icons that show vital info kinda like a cross between a widget and microsoft live tiles, system wide integration with certain third party apps, a quick settings widget, status bar notifications instead of badge app icons(at least the option to switch between the two). Alas, this is all but a pipe dream :(

I want Siri on ipad 2

This would be the perk of making some of the Siri commands local is Apple could at least bring the local commands to a bunch of models like the iPhone 4 and iPad 2. They probably wouldn't because it doesn't live up to their expectations but they could.

What I really want to see in iOS 7 is a complete OVERHAUL of iOS... A re-invention basically... This OS inspires zero passion anymore
