[Bug 1368826] Re: [Launcher] Remove the recent apps from the launcher
** Description changed:
Recent apps live and can be accessed already via right edge. Them
appearing in the Launcher is duplication. Also mixing recent apps with
favourite ones is a concept that users has difficulties to grasp.
- Launcher should only contained pinned apps, any apps that are asking for
- attention, and the currently focused app. The currently focused app
- should always be at the top. Any apps that are asking for attention
- should be positioned below the currently focused app and above the
- pinned apps, and when the user focuses an app that is asking for
- attention (via any method) this app should be removed from the launcher.
+ Launcher should only contain user's favourite apps, and possibly apps
+ that are asking for attention.
- The currently focused app should have a "Add to launcher" option in it's
- quicklist
+ Removing recent apps from the launcher means that there is no way to add
+ favourite apps to the launcher any more and we need to do that from
+ somewhere else. App preview page would a quick fix. Longpressing an app
+ icon in dash would be more elegant solution. We could easily add
+ longpress functionality to items in spread to do favoriting.
Proper design is still missing.
