I used to use a Starbucks Web app, but it no longer supports our browser apparently. Google maps still works as a PWA, but I dont try to use it for idrections or anything, just traffic info mostly. I don't use social media other than reddit, and I recently downloaded a couple apps for that...

Well it seems most people aren't as interested in what you asked so much as complaining about things. Apps I'd like to see on W10M: Edge with extensions Edge with full PWA support Seek Thermal USB camera support App (I have a borescope camera that plugs into USB; W10M recognizes it, but no app...

Re: Should i return to Windows Phone? Should you? No. Sad to say, but coming back to a platform that will stop getting updates in a year isn't good. I like the interface too; I figured if I went Android I would install a look-alike Win10 launcher to suppress my sadness.

I use ghostery, so I am mostly all set in edge. I don't use it though, because when I click the back button, my scroll wheel switches from scrolling the page to back/forward. I have to click on the page to use the scroll wheel in the same way I was just using it! frustrating, and no way to...

PWAs do work on W10M; I've got Goggle maps PWA web address pinned to my start screen on my phone. Yes, it is different from just going to google maps. Is it *fully* supported? probably not, but it works.

Annnnnddddd I got one. :winktongue: $100 is still hard to beat. As far as the phone goes, yep it is too big, but I'll use it. Colors are really saturated, with no apparent way to adjust it. :( Fingerprint reader is cool, but having it right below camera means fingerprints on the camera...

Late post here, reviving from the dead. I bought a Surface Book last year, and the original tip in the pen was damaged within 3-4 months; visibly bent and the black casing for the tip cracked open. I don't use the pen that much; I've done some rough sketches. I ordered the tip set to replace...

That was last year, the surface phone rumor is now at 6 years & counting. Six years of 'just around the corner'...

Good to hear! I've had a refurbished surface book for about six months now, with virtually no problems.

I'm surprised they charge an extra $70 for the headset! my 950 is running fine right now, and I really wanted to go back to 5" or less screen size. For $100 though, I could put up with a bigger phone. :)

It might have been a system update; those seem to ignore the wifi only download rules. pretty much any MS software will do this; camera updates, firmware, OS updates, things like the maps software, etc... There is a 'Restrict background data' option in the Network & wireless -> data usage...

So ya declared it limited/terrible/dead without actually using it. Or seeing a friend using it. Brilliant. I tried it, with a lapdock cobbled together from an old Motorola Atrix lapdock setup. Worked well. plug in the phone, a voila, a desktop. Play some World of tanks blitz with keyboard &...

I know, right? It isn't even up for debate. Free advertising next year, fond memories from at least three users. The decision is simple: Zune Mobile. BAM! Guardians of the Galaxy are already 'promoting' it. :winktongue: You may laugh, but back when Ford had turned the Taurus into a...

Apps for all the social media platforms that are from the platform itself; not third party. Google apps (mail/ maps/ etc). Apple apps (iTunes, mail, maybe even maps). Realistically, there are third party apps all around that cover most of these uses, but people apparently don't consider them...

Previously with the screen left on my phone would get exceptionally hot. Then I used blackout for continuum, which just blacks out the screen while using continuum (truth in advertising :D ). That reduced the heat a lot. I haven't used continuum recently; did the updates add in the ability to...
