We are just days away from Apple’s keynote to kick off this year’s Worldwide Developers Conference. This is always a busy time, and it’s only become more jam packed with different talking points as Apple has rolled out new platforms. Apple has a lot to talk about, and since the company has to not only sway new customers into the fold, but also convince Apple fans to stay in the family, there is usually a ton of new features to go over, too.

I’m in a strange boat when it comes to these events, more so this year than ever before. When I eventually switched over to the iPhone, I did so away from Android thinking I’d be back at some point or another. And while that technically came true more than a few times over the years, even with brief stints running webOS (oh how I miss you) and Microsoft’s different mobile operating systems, I’ve always returned to iOS.

And now there’s just no desire left in me to stop using iOS. I have no hesitation in admitting that Android is great, and there are obvious benefits to the platform, usually inherent in the OS itself when compared to iOS, but I just simply prefer using Apple’s mobile OS.

All of this to say that with one week to go before Apple shows off what’s next for iOS, its most popular platform, I’m not entirely sure what I want them to change, or add, or even remove. At least, not off the top of my head. It took me some time to think through what I want to see next week, and it honestly came down to one thing — my favorite feature not getting changed all that much.

There’s a saying: Everything is eventual, and that is certainly the case with software. At any point in time people that develop your favorite thing, whether it’s iOS or Android or whatever, might change what you love. You can’t make everyone happy, of course, and what some people might think is an amazing change is seen by others as a disastrous one.

iOS 11, or whatever Apple calls it, feels like it’s time for Apple to change Control Center (that aforementioned favorite feature of mine) in some way or another, despite the fact that I desperately *don’t* want them to go crazy with it. If Apple is going to introduce some big changes to the next major version of its mobile OS, I genuinely hope that Control Center comes out of the revisions with the fewest alterations.

I do think there’s room for some new additions, though. Specifically, I think Control Center could be even more functional with more 3D Touch features baked into it. Hard pressing on the Wi-Fi icon in Control Center brings up available Wi-Fi hotspots, for instance. And let me choose the options that are in the bottom row of Control Center, Apple. I really don’t need the calculator there anymore.

I should also mention that there are changes to iOS that I want, too, but one of them feels almost inevitable at this point, and the other feels the complete opposite of that: impossible. The first one: A Dark Theme in iOS. We’ve seen this in macOS and even tvOS, so maybe it’s time Apple finally brought the option to its iOS-based devices.

The impossible one is a feature that I’m sure most people want, or maybe even expect at this point in the year 2017: Changing default apps. Apple has always made a point out of saying that they want the user experience to be dictated by them, for better or worse. And I get that. But now I think people are aware that, hey, if you put a third-party app as the default text messaging app for whatever reason and it screws up, that isn’t Apple’s fault. Google has gotten away with it for a long while now.

I’m comfortable with iOS to the point where switching platforms isn’t something I want to do anymore, and being so heavily invested in the apps also helps with that, too, of course. But honestly Control Center is one of those primary features that keeps me coming back, and, as long as Apple doesn’t royally break it, that won’t change. Which is why I’m hoping that while Apple makes iOS 11 exciting in some way or another, Control Center doesn’t get mauled in the process. That’s really all I want with iOS 11 at this point.

But, what do you want to see, or hoping you see, out of iOS 11 this year? Any big changes or things you’d like to see added?
