iPhone 5 and how it should be...

Unknown artist for this home screen. Many good artist's are making there version of what the Lock Screen should look like.I know that there is a lot of speculation on how the iPhone OS (iOS) should work. But I have a request that comes from the use of a Blackberry for several years. Even though I really don't like using a Blackberry (which was my only choice for some time at work) for a smartphone, there are some items that makes it very interesting and useful. I believe that a smartphone should be smart and very quick to reference your information. So my only request would be to be able to see the most important things for YOUR day right from the lock screen without doing any other type of action than pulling it out of the holster and looking at it. No swiping, No expanding of a panel and No having to touch an app to get info out of the app. 

So with the Blackberry I only have to pull it out of the holster and look at the screen to see how my day is going. I can see the actual temperature out side and see if i have any new emails or phone calls that i missed. Or if they left me a message. Without doing anything but looking at the screen. Nothing more. 

Now that being said, I don't want a Blackberry. I want an iPhone. I don't want Apple to copy Android. I'm just saying that if there is one thing that Apple could do on the next version of iOS that would make people happy, would be to make the OS Smart in the fact that it tells you up to date info without having to refresh the screen or having to even touch the screen. As pulling the phone out of the holster would activate the magnet sensor and turn on the screen. Showing you all the info you need for the moment. 

This is my request to Apple as a person that is still running an iPod Touch 1st Generation. It could be GREAT!!! Rock on Apple!
