WPCentral's Windows Phone 8.1 Feature-list

I'm just using the stock WinPho 8 mail app on a lumia. I don't see that link. Even when I press the magnifying glass search button.
I've tried looking in the mailbox connection for both a gmail and outlook account.
Thanks anyway.

II think you need to check your sync setting. It needs to be set to anytime or its only going to pull stuff for the default week.
 
Also really hoping for custom fields in contacts / people app, and allowing more than two mobile numbers. Currently to get around this, I have to set up multiple contacts and link them. Also it would be nice to be able to set one of the contact as yourself, as there's currently no way to store your own addresses / emails / phone numbers etc other than setting up a dummy entry.

I have the sync setting for the last month. I don't do anytime so that gigs and gigs of email items aren't brought down to the phone.
That's why I was wanting a new feature to have more sync options between just 1 month and anytime and also the feature Android has where you can set sync time for seperate mailbox folders individually.
 
Daniel,

Ok, I see what you're talking about now. It must be a gmail problem. I can get that option in my connection to an outlook.com mailbox but not to a gmail.com mailbox.
 
I think what is missing is how do you update from WP8 to WP8.1? Via carrier? Which takes foreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeever? Other means? I do hope MS make it like a PC. Just have the users download it over their website and install it like a PC:
1. Install via carrier update
2. Via Store
3. Download and install like applying Service pack or something.
4. other means.

I think the problem is that the update is so slow to get to the users. The game has change as it is all about speed now. The faster you release something the customers get happy. It seems people are not so patient anymore. So i think if MS will allow PC stype updating it will greatly help. So what if it bugs down? Simply uninstall. Simple as that. Bypass the carriers.

Bypass is easy, just use Preview for Developers app. It think the majority on this site use it. It`s the other way around if you experience bugs, as far as I know you can't go back (uninstall) the update.
 
Man, the SD features are neat and much needed.

I didn't like that the back button will just suspend the app instead of terminate it. I'm hoping for this to be an optional thing.

Right, coz this bound to be a big update, I don't think there'll be much space left on 8GB devices and maybe that's why HTC only confirmed 8X to be receiving this update and no confirmation for 8S which has 4GB of storage.

[TIP]Video Calling Support? I don’t know if we will be given choices of which VOIP provider to use. Maybe Skype video calling will be built-in?[/TIP]

And what happened to those rumored "actionable" or "interactive" toasts? Those were just rumors, I suppose? You remember, when you get a toast notification for a text message or something you pull it down, reply and it's gone, without having to exit the app you are currently in? Nobody is talking about those anymore and it seemed to be a handy feature.
