I generally avoid doing this kind of post each year as so many others do. I’m not sure I see the point really as we’ll get what we get. Also, the truth is I’m not at all unhappy with iPadOS as it is. If none of these happen I’ll still happily continue using my iPad.

• Improved Mail app with Smart Folders, share sheet, improved searching
• Proper external display support
• Improved Files app (generally make it as close to the Mac Finder as possible). The main thing would be indexing of text content, Smart Folders, copy progress indicators
• Multitasking – I’m actually pretty happy with it as is but I’m sure it can be improved.
• Widgets on the Home Screen
• Would be great if iPhone apps, when iPad is in landscape orientation, could be displayed as slide overs or some other way from the current method of taking over the whole screen in portrait mode.
• Settings app support of split screen. (Lol, is there a reason this app does not support split screen??)
• Health app
• Smart Folders in Photos, Contacts, Notes and really, everywhere it’s possible to do.
• Editing and creation of groups in the Contacts app.
• Home App improvements
• I don’t use FaceTime but from what I hear it could stand to be improved.
• I actually really love Siri. Make it better.
• Voice dictation is great. Make it better.
• iCloud Diary – Setting this aside from the rest. I’d love to see Apple do something more with Messages to move it in a direction that might allow for people to more easily quit Facebook. That might just be a chip away at it sort of thing whereby each year more features are added that allow it to more fully replace FB. In particular, I’d love to see some sort of timeline feature along the lines of what Micro.blog offers. A sort of iCloud diary or iCloud journal. Make it easy for anyone to do some of the things they might otherwise go to Facebook for. I don’t think it needs to be an immediate replacement, just a step towards that. Maybe a new app with tie-ins to Photos, Messages, etc.
