I like the Siri update.

Apple music does feel to difficult to navigate now, so I hope I like the new update. Sometimes I am in my music and playing something I search for on Apple music. If I want to the searched Album I am currently playing, I have to go search for it again currently. Hopefully this update sorts these small things out
 
Forgot to add....many of us still on iOS 9. Those running iOS 10 please post screenshots as well /

The fact that they are making all/most of the apps standalone is also a pick plus in my opinion. iOS 10 is not really a big update in my book but it looks like it fixes a lot of the small niggles I have had with its predecessors.
 
In typical fashion, Apple used a portion of its WWDC keynote to go over some of the major—or “tentpole”—features coming in the next version of iOS 10. There’s a more powerful Messages app, a new HomeKit app, redesigned Music and News apps, and more.

But obvioulsy Apple couldn’t cover every new feature today, so it offered up a sneak peak at some other additions and improvements we can expect from the update. The slide you see above names 30+ new features coming in iOS 10, and we’ve listed them below.

I like the fact that widgets have no been removed from the notification centre shade. They now reside in spotlight where they should have from the get-go. At least one of my pet peeves has been addressed.

And yes, I like the new notification/widget cards and that they're actionable.

Also hoping Siri works on the Apple TV.
 
Installed it on an iPhone 5S last night, and will play around with it today.

Much more interested in watchOS3 as my watch might actually become useful for non-Apple apps now.

No. It works on the iPhone 5. I will play with it on a bit as it's installing as we speak.

I also like the fact they have been moved to spotlight.
I just don't agree with the design of the cards. Feels like a step backwards to me on the design part.

If fingerprint unlocking is disabled one has to activate the unlock via pressing the home button twice. If only once pressed you get access to your notifications, swipe to left you get spotlight and the widgets, swipe right you get to the music app.

Keyboard: love the fact that I don't have to switch between languages anymore.It picks up the language as you type. I really hoped for build in swipe support.

Mail app has threaded conversations now.

3D Touch, selecting text and copy paste seems to have improved a lot.
 
Also perhaps it's a good idea to list apps that work on iOS 10 beta for the folks that are hesitant to jump on it.

FNB app works
WhatsApp works
Telegram works
Tapatalk works

Keep in mind, I updated via OTA

One nasty bug I experienced thus far. My iPhone 6s Plus switched to landscape mode this morning upon unlocking and wouldn't switch back to portrait. Had to reboot.
