What are some things you wish apple did better on iPhones, or some things you prefer that Samsung does better than Apple?

    omg there’s a problem with iphone microphones the last 3 phones i’ve had have had this fault with the microphone that renders it unusable.

    Unable to use the microphone for the camera app, only using the camera via another app like snapchat or instagram for example.

    The problem got worse, less apps were supporting the microphones use with the camera. Then it stopped people hearing me during my calls.

    I was forced to put my phone on loudspeaker to answer and call people as it was the only time the mic would work. Then that started to become temperamental and i was forced to connect my headphones to take a call and use the mic on my headphones.

    I got all the components changed, to then be told it’s a software problem, updated the newest IOS and still a problem.

    This happened to my iphone 7 plus, iphone 8 plus and iphone XS…

    it felt like these problems would start happeneing when a new phone was brought out but that’s a discussion for another day…

    Now i’m on the iphone 11 lol

    Integrate notifications with dynamic island i have a Samsung as a secondary and there’s an app called D-Notch basically dynamic island for android but imo the developers did a great job because every time you get a notif it will appear on the dynamic island you can enlarge it or hold it to open the open the app whichever app and has almost all other dynamic island features

    Honestly photo gallery improvements. MAINLY I wish there was a folder where ask your PHOTOS were separate from any images that you’ve saved, screenshots, etc. a true “camera gallery” where everything that was taken thru an iPhone camera lens was separated from all the downloaded junk memes and screenshots and wallpapers and stuff. Just imagine how nice that would be.

    The volume control, notification categories like Android and it’s high time now, the phone keypad should be T9! Auto search in the keypad as soon as you start typing numbers, matching both numbers and T9 names.

    Different ring and alarm tone volumes. Set a different wallpaper on lock screen. Ringtone longer than 30 seconds. Set my own snooze time length.

    Poor native keyboard, horrible notification management and a lack of a universal back button. Also I feel text selection is inferior and less precise than that on my previous phone (S22U)
