It would be fantastic if Apple addressed the existing flaws in its operating systems before introducing new visual updates. I run into these issues multiple times a week, and it can be quite frustrating.
This concern extends to macOS as well, especially as I anticipate that Apple will attempt to introduce some of the problematic features seen in iOS to the Mac environment. It often feels as though marketing and design teams prioritize aesthetic changes over actual functionality.
One major issue is the handling of weak Wi-Fi connections. When I’m in areas with poor connectivity, such as my driveway or near the refrigerator, it would be far more efficient if my device would automatically switch to cellular data instead of stalling or requiring a manual disconnection from Wi-Fi.
Another area needing improvement is the organization of tabs in Safari and subfolders in the Mail app. Implementing an option to sort these alphabetically would greatly enhance user experience.
Additionally, I believe it’s time to restore the ability to properly pause audio playing in the background when a map application is in use or when I’m dictating messages. This feature has been inconsistent for years, leaving users confused.
Moreover, audio management needs to be improved. With applications like Instagram, Facebook, and Safari, it’s too common for multiple audio sources to play simultaneously, which can be overwhelming.
Finally, I must mention the dictation functionality using my AirPod Pros. Despite having noise cancellation, the accuracy is disappointingly low, with dictation working effectively only about 40% of the time.
This requires constant manual corrections. Apple has had a reputation for addressing flaws proactively, and while fresh designs can be appealing, they mean little without strong, intuitive functions.
