What w10m is still missing?

[ahmad karaki]

The list is too long
Landscape start screen
Swipe to open the hamburger menu
Unuseful hamburger menu in some apps
Ditching pivots where they should be available like in the groove app
No task manager to see whats using the phone resources
These are what annoy me the most

3g only and 4g only wtf microsoft when you fix something you break another one !!!!

I'll never understand why people want landscape view on the Start screen. I see absolutely no benefit and haven't heard any either.

This was actually already there in WP8.1, should be brought back for the final build:

• Office: Support for SharePoint, at least files (for professional use, at least the own professional products should be supported! should generally work already, but there is no possibility to add the own server to intranet zone like on the desktop)
  
• Outlook: Tasks (can not organize the day without it, should be integrated or first party app)
• Edge: Sync favorites, plugins or tracking lists, screenshot tile for pinned sites without own content, some feedback (animation?) while loading site (sometimes there is not even a progress bar)
• QR scanner and song identification
• Battery tile
• Background for lockscreen PIN keypad

New features, just nice to have:

• VPN type SSTP
• Use proximity sensor to turn off vibration while out of the pocket
• Full system image like with WP7 and Zune

Landscape start screen could work like on the desktop, where the tile groups are placed to fit best in landscape.

Okay so I'm so I'm using my phone in landscape mode, I wanna go to the start screen to launch a new app, have to rotate the phone to see what I'm doing, then I select another app I want to use on landscape, then I have to rotate the phone again. Think about how annoying that is.

EDIT: It would be really cool to have the same start screen as windows on the PC too.

The battery is always displayed in the top corner. If you want a battery tile there are many apps available in the store.
I suggest you get an app called QR scanner RS. It's pretty sweet.

Landscape mode is something that may come. There's quite a lot of feedback for it.

Most things are still in development so can't say that an of these things will change. Simple stuff that was available in photos previously is just getting added like albums and favourites. So they are definitely working on it.

Edge syncing of reading lists is there. My guess favourites and everything else is coming as well.

Not sure what you mean about background for lock screen pin keypad. When I unlock my phone it shows my lock screen background.

I rather not make any lists at this point because I know it's a work in progress. Once it goes RTM i'll see what's missing and make my suggestions then. But feedback app is a great place to start. Though sometimes I give pretty good feedback ideas but it seems they never make it anywhere. I've tried seeing my own feedback and it seems to be lost within all the other highly voted feedback. And using "most recent" doesn't show it either. And a lot of feedback that has already been fixed is still there filling up the space for stuff that could be more useful to display.

Well, I wouldn't want my phone to be limited to what the PC allows. I love my transparent tiles and background and images. But if you mean to have the PC one sync with your phone, that would be awesome.

Well transparent tiles and backgrounds in landscape would be really nice too

And I finally figured out a really big thing that w10m is missing. A supportive fanbase

 

[kokola]

Not enough blind ******.

I don't think the OP knows how "what is missing" and "what I don't like" differ. Not liking the current menus isn't a missing feature.

But then, what would be the basis of all the features and perks in a phone - or any product for that matter? :wink:

This is already available man

i had my phone on 4g only, couldn't get phonecalls, only data.

The battery is always displayed in the top corner. If you want a battery tile there are many apps available in the store.

In WP8.1, the battery saver app had a live tile that also showed the battery levels in real-time. In W10M that functionality is gone. Sure, you can get Battery Tile apps, but they usually refresh once every 30 minutes. The 8.1 one was really good, I'm wondering, why they changed it?
