These are what I can think of that I'd like to see, in no particular order:

  • Battery widget that displays battery status for all Find My devices instead of just those connected over Bluetooth
  • Apple Music playback state sync between devices
  • NFS network share support on iOS (SMB is a major pain in the ass)
  • Advanced audio routing: output to multiple devices at once on iOS/macOS; play from multiple devices at once on AirPods or chaining devices, e.g. iPhone -> Mac -> AirPods (I already do this with my Linux PC instead of the Mac)
  • Sleep mode on Apple Watch to show normal watch face while still having the screen locked
  • Subtask support for CalDAV reminders
