I want a button on the homescreen that allows me to quickly shut off Bluetooth, Wireless, or 3g. All of these are battery wasters, on a short life battery, and getting to each setting is a pain. And by the way... a larger capacity batter wouldn't hurt! Wish 2047

A location aware and schedulable power saving settings section where you can set which services (gps, 3g, wifi, etc.) are on or off based on both your physical location and a predetermined schedule. Also allow on/off setting for Calendar, to auto enable vibrate mode during specified meetings. Wish 1500

Don't see your complaint listed here? What's your wish?

Road Mode! When I drive I want to be able to see: 1. The name of the song etc. in a size I can actually read. 2. Buttons that are easy to find without taking my attention off the road in V&H. 3.Time (again, large enough to read) And I would love to see something fun that uses the accelerometer. Not just for fun, but to also show you you're currently in car mode. Wish 617

Why not iPhone offer certain amount of space on the phone to run application for testing purposes and the once which Apple store does not accept rather than Jailbrake or using other software to break the iPhone? The more users can do with the phone the higher the community grows. Wish 657

I have a music transmitter that allows me listen to my iphone in my car. When I am listening music everything else works, check email, text message, etc. Why can I not talk on speaker phone while connected to the device, have the sound go through my speakers in my car. Wish 683

iPhone has same problems as lot of their competitors. Why not Apple join the Symbian, Android and Palm community and let developers work across to create multiple cross platform applications. After all all of these guys are friends and they do communicate behind doors. Enough of nonsense about owing and creating application for your own preparatory use. Wish 655

offline emailing. I hate the fact that I can't trash messages or compose new messages without having a stupid alert come and interrupt me. This is using exchange email services, not live IMAP - there's no reason why a sync when you do go online shouldn't do everything you did while you were offline. Wish 1697

Airplane mode should be more configurable, or alternatively, separate on/off toggles (IN THE ONE AREA) for WiFi, Bluetooth, Phone, and GPS. Sometimes I just want to turn the phone off but have all other connectivity still available (ie, I don't want to be disturbed, but I want to read my email) Wish 6325

My POP3 email is not dependable. Many are never fetched even though they are "new" in my webmail inbox. No error, just never gets them. I am using my webmail (thank goodness this phone has safari) for reliability, I am unable to rely on the iphone for POP3 mail. I never had this issue with Treo or Blackberry. Wish 4410

I wish the Home button could be set to turn Airplane Mode on and off. Sometimes it feels like too many steps to get back to the Home screen, enter Settings, and click on Airplane Mode. Wish 2396

Mac has so many capabilities that all of the users here Complained about. Why not make more portability available to phone same as the Operating System in the past 5 years. Majority of the complains here are relating to the functionality which MAC/Apple has solved in past 5 years. Make the developers work from OS team and Phone team. This is make majority of the problem disappeared. Wish 648

You should be able to access the wireless preferences by clicking on the wireless bars directly. I often find that I want to turn off/disconnect from the wireless network I am on. It is far less cumbersome to go directly to the preference pane. Wish 6042

Allow apps, like the NYTimes, to sync and download their data while the iPhone is syncing (like how AvantGo works on the Palm OS). Currently the NYTimes will "update" forever (i.e. until it crashes) and all the majority of articles will still not be downloaded. This is especially a problem when traveling with no connectivity, such as a plane or subway. Wish 3308

handphone management: automatically turn it on in the morning at X and turn it off in the evening at Y (managing weekends as well), to save battery. Managing Silent mode, Edge, 3G, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth in a similar way would be great. :] Wish 2000

Unsupported accessories warnings Every time I plug my iPhone into my car charger with line out it displays the warning about it not being designed to work with the accessory and should the phone switch to airplane mode. This is a fair enough warning but why can’t I tell it to remember my answer for future use! Wish 7912

Can Apple please get rid of the following error: Airplane Mode: This accessory is not made to work with iPhone. Would you like to turn on this feature to reduce audio interference? You will not be able to make or receive calls while this is turned on. It is the most irritating message ever. Wish 8464
