    I notice that on the Google Pixel =5vwhen you swipe right from the home screen, you end up in a google search feature.

    It would be pretty awesome if this can be done on BlackBerries to access the hub.

    You think this is in the works!?

    You mean a similar functionality like what was on BB10?

    Amen. I also wish they had the little trash cans on BB10.

    You can somewhat do that right now. Just add a Home page to the left of your main screen, and make a full-screen Hub widget.

    There's also that Instagram post a while back showing the slide-in Hub on the Priv, claimed to be coming in Nougat but people say that's actually Nova Launcher.

    The widget often does not refresh. Not a great solution if u ask me.

    I think that at its current state, the hub is totally useless if not for its email client side.

    I agree. This feature would be great. But it's not a feature for the Hub application so much as it's a feature that needs to be added to Blackberry Launcher. Seems like something that Android supports seeing as though the Google Now launcher has had a similar feature built-in for years.

    I'd also like to see an implementation of live tiles within android. So your home screen is all your open/running applications tiled. You have Hub to the left, apps to right, just like BB10.

    Wishful thinking and definitely nice for us older BB10 users. But for the purpose of selling phones, it's probably best to leave things as stock as possible.

    Exactly. One thing I missed about bb10. I am pretty sure this is possible?

    Action Launcher will let you do this.

    Yep, have this set up on my Pixel. It's not BB10, but it's as close as we're gonna get on Android at the moment.
