iphone 14 microphone just on the bottom?
there are a lot of things i dislike about the iphone 14. but the one i despise the most is the microphone design. am i the only one having issued on facetime? you’re supposed to set your phone up to see the other person and they can see you, but they can’t hear a thing i say because the mic is on the bottom. the iphone 14 is by far their worst phone. i’m so disappointed and i wish i could get my XR back

Keyboard glitch
Ever since the iO 16 update, my keyboard will glitch. While typing the keyboard will glitch between swiftkey and apple keyboard making it almost impossible to type. It is extremely aggravating. To the point that I'm ready to switch back to android if this isn't fixed soon.

latin digit numerical
According to the Indian Constitution, typing in Hindi keyboard layout Unicode should have Latin digit form like 1234567890. But when typing in Hindi keyboard layout Unicode on Macbook or iPhone then the numeral form is typed in Devanagari Digit.  It's out of date now. Secondly, according to Article 343 of the Constitution of India, the official language of the country will be Hindi, but the form of numerals will be Latin. The keyboard layout of all operating systems except macOS iOS and typing also uses Latin as the numeral form. But when typing in Hindi on Mac and iPhone, the form of numerals does not seem logical due to the Devanagari Digit form.

Choosing Type Suggestions From Accessibility Keyboard Using a Keyboard
Hello, In Short: add a way to use the text prediction from the Accessibility Keyboard using the regular keyboard. (for example: remap the row number keys.) Explanation: mac's on-screen keyboard has some great features for people with accessibility needs: it is static on the screen, present the typed text in a big font and suggest words. The problem is that the physical keyboard can't use the word suggestion. some of us (accessibility users) can benefit from text prediction using a keyboard, like in any IDE (for programmers) or iPhone keyboard. We are more comfortable using a keyboard than a mouse. By the way: Microsoft Windows's implementation is lacking, as it requires the use of the "up arrow+enter" which is small and far from the center of the keyboard, therefore hard to reach while typing fast, but at least there is something :-) in that case a keyboard macro can help to remap the row number into "up+up...+enter". I have tried to develop it without success. my problem is that I can't find a way to interact with the accessibility keyboard. remapping keys to run a script is the easier part. Thank you for helping make Apple more accessible.

Display candidate list failed in SCIM app while working with Wine
I'm using Wine for running Windows app/games on MacOS, and testing if input method working well in Wine apps. When trying to type word with SCIM and Wine, candidate list can't be displayed, instead, I get error message in Console from SCIM_Extension as below: warning: attempt to begin free window rendezvous for <IMKUIPanel: 0x7fd166f52890> failed due to Error Domain=com.apple.ViewBridge Code=23 "(null)" UserInfo={com.apple.ViewBridge.error.hint=description not found, com.apple.ViewBridge.error.description=NSViewBridgeHostAbsentError} It seems only a display-related problem, for candidate navigation and submission working well even if it can't be seen. This problem is permanent in MacOS native input methods using CoreChineseEngine framework of Big Sur 11.6 and Monterey 12.1, but not seen in 3rd-party input methods using InputMethodKit such as hallelujahIM and squirrel. I believe bug lies in Wine implementation of NSPanel or NSApplicationDelegate. But I need some clarification from someone in Apple, about the cause of NSViewBridgeHostAbsentError, and advices for next step troubleshooting, if possible. Many thanks.

Support of clipboard in iOS
The “best” phone in the world really misses the clipboard function, so you can access copied data stack including images. Absence of this feature makes it really uncomfortable to fill the templates or accessing some data from previous activity without reopening the previous activity app.

Another problem why?
Before upgrading to iOS 15 I was able with the paid developer account to sign and install 3rd party applications such as MAME and play them on my iPhone, but now I am not. Why?
