        Swipe keyboard like Nemo/Sailfish. There is already an open source swipe keyboard built in QT for Nemo on git.

          @cibersheep Yeah I thought about that but the implementation of 3-finger tap is quite complicated to copy from Lomiri 😅 Also, those buttons are used in one-handed mode on phones as well so I just left them there. It is true that you can accidentally press them though. I'm still thinking on how to avoid that.

            @rocket2nfinity Sailfish has swipe typing? Didn't know that. I don't really use it so my interest is low but it does sound cool. As for redshift, that's out of my skills 😅

              As for your concern, I don't get it. Main purpose of private mode is to not store any data of your browsing history so your use case is a bit contradicting to that

              I know and prefer private mode. There's only black and white when it comes to private mode and that's a good thing in itself.

              It's just that a certain number of websites I do trust need to be loaded and filled out again and again. I would like some sandboxed shade of grey.

                Floating and one-handed mode in the OSK. It's still not an official PR but it's already working and here's a preview

                Kugi, you're to good, I see you trying to be sneeky in your screenshots, you always got something cool developing!

                I love floating keyboard and one handed keyboard idea, and that odd browser search thing looks amazing to!

                  @3t_ed I think you need first to define your use case and your goal. What are the things you want in private mode that normal mode doesn't do? What are the things that private mode does that you don't want? Do you know any other browser that has a similar mode you want? I can't relate because I barely use private mode 😅

                    Something I would like to see is tap (or double tap) to reveal the lock screen. At present it is necessary to push the power button, which is not easily accessible with the Nexus 5 in a case.

                      @cliffcoggin I think that's doable but may require kernel changes which I have zero knowledge 😅 I'd want it too though currently I'm using a magnet to lock/unlock my Nexus 5 😄 Perhaps you can get a magnetic case.

                        IMHO your use case is for webapps.
                        I'm using private browsing only for a new website for a one time thing...
                        If I need this site open frequently and do not want the trouble to login every time, then I create a webapp so the cookies are confined and not shared with other tabs.

                        BTW cookies from 2 private tabs are shared between them and lost only when closing the app.
                        At least that's the case on desktop, maybe Morph does better, but I doubt it.

                          @cliffcoggin this actually already exists on the halium 7 ports for OPO, FP2. Is the Nexus 5 getting one too? I'm not sure.

                            @loops That would be useful, but I have no idea if that is planned for Nexus 5.

                              @kugiigi could you look into what is wrong with the Nextcloud account tool? It seems to be using qtwebengine for some reason and the OSK is borked. Thanks 🙂

                                @povoq You mean the online accounts sign in page for Nextcloud? I think the issue isn't just about the webview but something to do with the popup dialog which I think is some sort of a secured dialog.

                                  Tap button for searching in contacts to replace broken keyup.
                                  Downgrade to previous versions of software on RC and Development.
                                  Dropdown top menu to be displayed as grid.

                                    @marius-ciclistu I don't understand the first item. Contacts app or messaging? and where exactly?

                                    Downgrading doesn't fit my skills, sorry 😅

                                    Dropdown top menu, you mean the indicators? I think that's too big of a change and needs a lot of planning and discussions.

                                      @kugiigi Hello.
                                      Thank you for all your support for UT over the years.
                                      Personally, generally speaking, I think that, if you can, the priority problems to be fixed are those related to the virtual keyboard not going up in certain circumstances.

                                        @domubpkm Yeah, I can try to check that too. It can be annoying at times 😄 I would guess it's in the inner and lower level codes though so it may not be easy for me 😅
