[Bug 1536665] Re: Remove Phone and Messaging apps from favorites

 

The list of favorited apps can be configured via gsettings key

$ gsettings get com.canonical.Unity.ClickScope core-apps

This key is currently an empty array of strings, in which case the Apps scope uses the following defaults:
"dialer-app",  "messaging-app",  "address-book-app", "com.ubuntu.camera_camera",    "webbrowser-app", "com.ubuntu.clock_clock"

Title:
  Remove Phone and Messaging apps from favorites

Status in Canonical System Image:
  Confirmed
Status in canonical-pocket-desktop:
  Confirmed
Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Per product management, the Phone and Messaging apps should not be
  available on the Freiza build.

  We can accomplish this in a few steps tbd
  1 - do not show them in the launcher or the top favorites section
  2 - do not show them anywhere including the app scope
  3 - remove them from the image entirely, although messaging will be interesting at some future time (this probably requires a move from rootfs to custom tarball)
  or
  4 - make their appearance conditional based on device capabilities
