Dropbox!
Why is there no Dropbox app. All my files an photoes from android phone and ipad are on it. Pity I cannot see them on WP8.

Actually, there is already a Dropbox app since the beginning of this year.

A better browser. I used to like Opera on my old phone. I'd like to have my most used sites on the front page when I open the browser.
A better Facebook, one that can view pictures in the middle of threads and isn't so slow to upload photos or can at least load them in the background.
Official Pinterest.
A photo editor that has a good selection of brushes, eye dropper colour selection, clone tool, layers and the ability to work on a zoomed image.

IE is quite good....there are also some very good alternatives like UC Browser and Maxthon......ya we need better Facebook app current one sucks badly......for photo editor there are lotsof apps in store like fotor, fhotoroom, picsart, fantasia painter free, photofunia, etc. and adobe photoshop express is coming soon

Spotify
Flipboard
Foursquare (official one)
Starbucks (official one)

there is official app of foursquare in store.....and also Spotify (but it hasn't been updated for ages)

I'm missing NHL Gamecenter Live, hipstamatic, biteSMS, racejoy, remote (appleTV), PicTapGo.

I need an app that lets me play all my DOWNLOADED music and music videos in the background, it must also be able to search by name. An example of such app is BS player for Android

UC Browser is a good option.
and now, in WP8.1, IE itself works nicely.

Since Chrome browser is already present on Windows 8 store, and with WP 8.1, both the stores are merged into one, can we please have Chrome browser for Windows Phone 8.1 soon please? I'd like to have my browser tabs and history saved across Windows Phone, my laptop and my iPad.

You have to ask Google, don't be surprised if they make fun of you and insult your family
