I love my iPhone, but there are two simple things that would make it better.
1. Temporarily disable the home button.
Along with music and photos, my iPhone has a few Sesame Street videos and kiddie games installed, which I whip out when my kids run out of patience in public (iChalky and Jirbo Match are hits). The problem is that the kids sometimes navigate away from the application or video and get into other stuff. Recently, my daughter deleted some photos I hadn’t exported to my Mac.
It’s hardly the end of the world, but it would be nice to put the phone in “Kid mode” and prevent them from navigating away from a video or application.
2. Return to the last application.
Sometimes a friend will share a YouTube video via Twitterrific. When I click it, the YouTube application launches. When I’m through, my only option is to go back to the home screen and then re-launch Twitterrific. I’d like an option to return to the last application.
Two humble wishes. I’ve got my fingers crossed.
