    I'm actually thinking about making an app that would let you set keyboard shortcuts that work from anywhere in the OS - allowing you to use any launcher as well. Would any of you folks be interested?

    I've already made a little test app that let's me launch hub from anywhere!
    Why not make a script that would save the BlackBerry Launcher settings for export and import... many would LOVE to have that !!

    Such an absurd....app developers cover for BlackBerry app design shortcomings. Unbelievable.
    Someone has to do it... they won't, even after years of begging... then they lavish manpower on that BBM ...sheesh !!

    Another featureless BlackBerry Launcher Beta update....ver # 2.1902.1.10111

    No new gizmos, same old none removable app drawer icon...that said it looks like the version number got updated to a leading 2...whatever that means in terms of a meaningful change.

    By the way, if at all possible, can you please make the keyboard shortcuts functional from the Recent screen?

    I too want the app drawer icon to be removable and also changeable icons by app instead of having to use icon packs to change all icons.

    if you could also put the hub to the left of the main screen like on BB10 that would also be awesome!!

    @BB_RobertL back in Feb you hinted at a new Launcher update. If I had to imagine it had been in the works way before that time so please, can you tell us how much longer we are going to have to wait? Maybe throw us a bone like telling us what new features we can expect? Will the app drawer icon be gone for once and for all?

    I had MS Launcher and Edge on but never used it ...since I removed it, BlackBerry launcher seems to be more "buttery smooth."

    I would only consider another launcher to overcome the silly lack of ability to back-up the BlackBerry launcher settings, layout, and links... why that isn't offered is amazing to me !!

    I am reading more & more articles that speaks to Android Q (Beta) buggy gestures based navigation and that at the moment it doesn't support 3rd party launchers which though can be installed, the system revert back to standard Android key based navigation.

    Though Pie should be working well, I am wondering if that's somehow related to not seeing this update coming through.
