    Hi everyone,

    Super excited too have the Priv. I just wanted to make a consolidated list of features we'd like to see in their Priv that are currently missing from their BB10 predecessors. +1 if you think the idea is important and I guess we can give the BlackBerry guys on the forums an idea as to where they should focus.

    Hub:
    - Pinch to show unread
    - Attachments view
    - WhatsApp integration
    - Tap icon to mark read/unread
    - 'Mark All as Read'
    - Priority Hub

    Contacts:
    - Facebook contact integration
    - Automatically merge contacts

    Calendar:
    Nothing on my end

    Camera:
    - Time shift

    Phone:
    - Screen light up on incoming call

    General OS:
    - Reply to WhatsApp from quick reply
    - Calculator with unit conversion
    - Bedside mode (workaround is okay)
    - BlackBerry Blend

    Story Maker integration

    Additional/virtuall/external file systems, not just in file explorer

    Multilingual keyboard (multiple languages all at once as opposed to having to switch between them)

    No no no no no no no

    ----

    And on the hub, how cool would it be to have the hub be its own page to the left of the homescreen?

    Story Maker integration is a feature of BB10 and it is missing. Some may hate it but others may like it.

    I feel like the easy way around this is to just make a widget of the Hub and place it as a widget.

    It's a mediocre editor and there are better alternatives for Android, I have no doubt. But it may have been useful on BB10 had they not forced titles.

    I just don't see how the new BlackBerry could ever prioritize something like this when they're promoting productivity and security as a new addition to Android. Let them do things at which they excel.

    I had thought the same thing, but it would need to fill the screen completely, and then disable swiping back to the home screen (as there are swiping gestures integrated into Hub's UI.

    But if they could figure it out better, it would feel a lot better being a part of the home screen (or one page to the left of it) rather than being a traditional app.

    I'd imagine this would wreak havoc on the performance of the phone, however. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

    Also, where is the dark theme? We have another amoled display, so I think it's about time we BlackBerry users got a dark hub.
