ios suggestions

Not sure where else to post but these are some functionality suggestions I would like to make to improve the ease of use of all iOS products:

 

1. Move the EQ settings into the music app itself since they only affect audio played in the music app. This would simplify EQ toggling.

 

2. Move the Delete History/Cookies and Data setting into Safari itself for similar reasons to suggestion 1.

 

3. In the Phone app, instead of having to select a contact to call (which I admit is not exactly time consuming), place an option in Settings which, when activated would allow typing of a contact's name (or number, if known) using only the number buttons in the Phone app and would bring up a short list of contacts which fit this text string. Eg If I wanted to dial a contact named Steve I could begin typing '783' which represents the letters 'ste' in old-style text input. The short list would then display any contacts containing those letters, in that order (or indeed any contact represented by any of the letters on those number buttons, or any contact's phone number containing 783). Further button presses would narrow the list and the desired contact could be selected at any time to begin dialling immediately. It would work in a similar way to Spotlight Search except that it would use old-style text input and would be restricted to names and phone numbers only. This feature could be disabled in Settings by users who did not require it.

 

4. Option to disable Notification Center altogether or just while using apps in Settings.

 

5. Option to disable Control Center altogether in Settings.

 

I would very much like to see these features and changes implemented in a future update to iOS and I require no acknowledgement, reward or recompense for suggesting them.
