As it’s less than a month to the virtual WWDC, it’s time for an Apple/WWDC wish list.

On the MacOS-next side of things:

• AV1 support baked in (CoreVideo and wherever else it’s needed).
• APFS idle-time dedup.
• January’s ‘Pro’ mode rumours coming to fruition.
• And it’s equal and opposite ‘super battery saver’ mode.
• Time Machine revamp/APFS based time machine.
• Internet Time Machine.
• A BetterTouchTool clone. The touch bar remains a very expensive white elephant, this may make it less of a failure for most.

On the iOS side:

• Options for simultaneous multi lens pictures/video in default camera app.
• Raw photos option in default camera app.
• Option to replace default protocol handlers.
• AV1 support.

Hardware wise:

• A light field camera. This would link well with the LiDAR scanner that’s in the most recent ‘iPad Pro’.

Not in a million years but I still want:

• Aperture 4 with local AI powered object recognition, smart photo manipulation/editing, multi drive support and highly configurable iCloud storage options.
