Give Developers Some Ideas

The Apple · 03-07-2008, 09:44 PM

Wouldn't it be cool if we threw around some ideas on Some new apps for the iPhone. No doubt some developers will be browing in here and may get a spectacular idea from one of the users in this forum. So post your thoughts on what you would make if you were a developer, or what you think developers should be thinking about! Who knows....your idea could be at the top of the application list!!!

Copy and paste, if possible, and definently a video recorder, whoever makes those two and are the best out of all of them are declared rich.

The strange thing is that Apple needs to dominate when making a application for the iPhone/iPod. Simple because they want to control whats on there appstore..

Anyways I believe in open source and im a programmer in a lot of languages for over 6 years, When I get a idea.. I'll olso release the source of my application.

LOTS of fun and exciting 3d games, maybe even an MMO of some kind for it that we can all play on.

yea some sort of MMO.. Or just an online based game would be nice.

A summer board * type app. Would be sweet so we can change back ground Etc.

a waterd down photoshop type app that we can use to our pics on the phone.
changing color black/white effects negatives stuff like that would be awesome

the biggest thing anyone could do with the iphone would be to incorporate an a2dp profile for the iphone so i could use my motorola s9 headset without a bulky aftermarket dongle. there is a bluetooth sdk package in the packages folder in the sdk disk image.

I would love to see and app that allowed for landscape typing in SMS. This is a big issue with me and all my friends who have iPhones.

I would like a Spy Cam. Sometimes I go to events where picture taking is not permitted, like the Viper Room for example. I would like a camera app that will snap shots on its own while completely turning off the iPhone's screen. A black screen would do just as well, but powering it down would be oh so much more believable.

I would love to have a screen (or screens) similar to the web apps screens, strictly for speed dials. Nice big buttons for us old blind guys!

Definitely copy and paste, I hate not being able to have that, going from a BlackBerry to the iPhone.

Video would be sweet. Creating usergroups for text messaging multiple contacts. Preset phrases/sentences that you can add/edit/delete, and how about custom SmartCase AutoText that you can add/edit/delete.
