<br>in Home screen:<br><br> * Covers move around so I have to go through them one by one to find the app I need. Only if I continuously swap between two apps, I might trust that the app is the first or second one in the grid.<br>
* Cover texts/images change, so I have to read/decypher images to understand which app they relate to. This is slow.<br><br>in Launcher screen:<br><br> * App icons don't move around. I can rely on my spatial memory and find the app always at the same spot. Often, I have already moved my finger over the app before the screen has stopped scrolling.<br>
* App icons don't change. Recognizing a familiar icon is faster than reading/decyphering images.<br><br>Perhaps the number of covers displayed on Home could be customizable? I would limit it to three small ones (or remove all). The app icons could move up to occupy the free space.<br>
<br></div><div>Also pinning the covers would help (I would pin most of them). <br><br>I never close apps, so I have all the time nine small covers on the Home screen. Am I doing it wrong?<br></div><div><br></div>Cheers,<br>

<br>
</div>if you swipe up from the bottom, it brings event screen, if you swipe up<br>
from the middle, it brings home screen. takes some getting used to...<br>
<br>
maybe swiping left/right doens't work if you don't have a TOH?<br>

<br>
</div>i don't agree, for multi-processing this is better, plus there's a pulley<br>
menu on lock for the relevant apps... i suppose this is configurable<br>

<br>
</div>wasn't there some kind of cover where you could do this? there's been a<br>
request for pinning covers, i would like this in combination...<br>
<div class="im"><br>

<br>
</div>this is done via ambience iinm, but i agree that this Abience should<br>
really be allowed to be tuned/configured a bit...<br>
<div class="im"><br>

<br>
</div>i think this would have issues with different Ambiences<br>
<div class="im"><br>

</div>> 10. Chinese writing input (find the button = with extra -, that should<br>
allow configuration) i heard this on #jollamobile at freenode IRC<br>

</div>afaik apps can be reviewed even on the phone...<br>
