When it comes to really good concepts and ideas for iOS' future development, Ralph Theodory is second to none. Brought to you by the man that "ported" the Apple Watch round springboard to iOS 8 before the device is even remotely close to shipping, this iOS 9 concept video explores some seriously cool ideas that we feel are very worthy of Apple's consideration. Some of them make so much sense that we can't help but think they must have been tossed on the table at Cupertino at least a couple of times before they were axed out of the operating system.
Check out the ideas here, and make sure to watch the video below so you can see them in motion. This way, Ralph has made them look very believable!

If Her Siriness doesn't recognize your words, it will ask you to spell it so it can learn it. Apple won't ever implement it, because let's face it, we'll all teach Siri swear words.
