If you feel strong that Apple does not provide such, go contact
them directly and complain to them. That is all I can tell you.

File management: I know there are apps that do it, so sure, why
Apple don't
provide something at system level has always bugged me. I have
used the
apps, but having such a fundamental feature built-in, would be a
monumental
and long-overdue benefit.
JMO, RobH.

Certainly, the ability to have other keyboards system wide is a
great
improvement. There wre 2 things I was hoping for that it appears
we
will not be getting. First, the ability to install other voices
and use
them system wide. Each person has their own voice preferences,
but at
this point, any new voices that are installed can only be used
with one
application. The other feature I wish we would have gotten is
file
management. As far as I know, I O S is the only platform where
copying
and moving files is very difficult.

Hello,
I just watched the keynote and the one thing I was hoping for,
does not
appear to be coming to iOS 8. Hopefully, I'm wrong but I fear
not.
I would truly love to be able to organize the threads in the
Messages app;
you know, be able to create folders so I can save important
messages. All
I
saw in the keynote was the ability to name threads in group
messages.
Again, I'm hoping I'm wrong and they will bring this feature to
iOS 8 but
...

No just the Fall. If it's like previous years mid September.

Hi all,
I just wanted to let everyone know the major new iOS8
accessibility
features we know so far. This is from the Keynote - I don't
even have
the beta, so I can't break an NDA.
* Better Zoom
* Touch ID and a countdown timer as ways to exit Assistive Touch
* multi-device support for compatible hearing aids
* the Alex voice from OS X (possibly for Siri, or VO, we don't
know
for
sure)
* six-key braille input on-screen (no clue what this will look
like)
* third-party keyboard support for the whole system, and Fleksy
as
said on Twitter that it will be among the first to take
advantage of
this. Yes, Fleksy will soon be available at any point in iOS
when a
keyboard appears, from Mail to the App store to, well, anywhere!
That's all I can think of for now, but between those and the
standard
iOS8 features, this is shaping up to be a very, very exciting
release!

Have a great day,
