        Tweak wifi refresh interwall. Default setting is ~2mins like in PC Ubuntu and you get to connect wifi faster by turning it off and on again. 30sec would be ideal.

        Also when you receive SMS or any other notification you shouĺd see that tab first when you pull it down.

        Remove that annoying "SD card found" notification when you boot up.

        These are small fixes that shouldn't be too much of a task to do, and i think many would agree with me.

          Increase the time notifications pop-ups last on screen, now they close too fast and sometimes it's hard to read them before they close. Also: increase the font size to make it easier to read them.

              @doniks yep, I actually have that scope but it is necessary to have "big" computer AFAIK with ubuntu and process is not what could be described as easy one 😄

                gsettings set com.canonical.qtmir lifecycle-exempt-appids

                Very strange this. This doesn't work on my Nexus 4 with the canonical image, but on my Nexus 5 with the ubports image i used the UT tweak GUI which seems to do exactly the same but works. Is this maybe only working on the ubports images?

                  Having extended work with SIM though GUI would be nice (turning on/off the GSM, being possible to not send number when calling so receiver will not see it, etc)

                        @Anne017 Yes, tried it at release. It just didn't exist yet when I made my comment :-).

                          Thanks to Marius we now have System wide adblocker for ubuntu touch: https://uappexplorer.com/app/uadblock.mariogrip

                          Indeed. It should be upgraded to a core app showing up next to the browser icon in the next update, i think. 🙂

                                One feature that I think would be nice and help bring our OS up to where it should be, would be the ability to retain the apps and scopes you are viewing after a shut down. On my Android I do not have to reopen every app I want to use after a reboot or overnight shut down.

                                  My no. 1 on this list would be reliable connectivity without the current hit and (mostly) miss for bluetooth, but also that I can trust that my wifi connection is active as reported by the status indicator.

                                  No 2: Browser and webapp engine that can handle most modern websites

                                  No 3: Fully working camera and GPS on OPO

                                  No 4: Battery life - it has gone really poor on my OPO lately

                                  My most important wishes, but I also want to thank all developers who work hard to not only keeping this important project alive, but also improve the user experience with every update. Great job!!!

                                    Rotation lock configuration, not just let it blocked or not, for example, block for the program list but not for video while it's full-screen playing

                                        1. Capability to change the font and the size (I find it to be somewhat fine and small)

                                        2. Capability to close all open apps with a single gesture

                                        3. Re-position lower, the dialer and the contacts icon (ease of use)

                                        4. T9 dialing

                                        5. A forward/back gesture, where possible, to navigate opened apps. The back arrow to the top left of the screen necessitates two hand use especially on the larger devices

                                        6. Improved camera performance

                                          1- Remove ubuntu store.
                                          2- make open store replace ubuntu store.

                                          • other ideas concepts said before this post.

                                            Maybe finally make the convergence mode work properly(e.g. app not crashing or closing, sound over Aethercast)
                                            More polishing of UI.
                                            And the most importantly fixing the most critical bugs in network connectivity (mobile, bluetooth, wifi bugs)
                                            That would more than suffice for Ota-3

                                              I would like to see a stable os,with any minor fixes added as we go along,at a time interval that is suitable and is common knowledge for the users that want something that just works.works

                                              Like a Chinese knock off of a xiaomi 7 inch phone/tablet I have that seems to be indestructable,and just keeps going and going

                                              Maybe an alternative os (download), that has convergence,and the apps,to get started,for those that can use it and improve it, (maybe 16.04)
