    once you learn how to use the search button, you won't go back.

    I have tried organizing my apps into folders.. and i managed to compress about 20 pages into 3-4 pages.

    then I forgot about my apps.


    But once I don't use folders, I get all that 20 pages.

    But the search makes life like heaven, because I don't forget about the apps i keep in folders (because i don't see them, and i forget about them, LOL)

    Once 10.3 gets released I'll use it religiously.

    The only problem with it at the moment is that you click it and it takes a good 3 seconds for it to load. In 10.3 not only is it instant and so much more useful, it has the voice search built right in! Just wait for 10.3, you won't be able to stop using it

    Of course I use it but I would trade it for a button that shoots lasers and makes people believe the Washington Capitals are the best hockey team in the known universe.

    Ovechkins stick shoots the lasers and the Caps ARE the best....no need for a button!

    I swear I never use the search button at the bottom on my z10.
    I want to put something else there, like music or bbm.

    Yea I wish I could switch it with music or something else. I don't really mind it at all, but it would free up one more spot on my screen. I only use one screen and have folders with apps organized in them

    You're a clutz then, if you accidentally hit any of those three icons.

    Why would one want the search button to be a button for something else, when it searches the device so well. It located this music track,well before I had finished spelling it.
    Does anyone use the search button in BB10?-img_20140423_184435.png

    I used it frequently, when I had a torch I used the universal search all the time and since I don't have a keyboard anymore the bottom Icon works best.

    This is exactly my point.
    If you typed the word 'play' before sound album name then you could start playback right from the search app.

    Can't imagine using the phone without it.. Instantly searches deep settings, music, apps, don't use it for contacts though..
    I like how it keeps an icon for recent activity, that helps me a great deal since I have 15 pages of apps.. each app is as easily accessible as any app on first page..

    I think it is a matter of use, more you use it more useful it becomes...

    I don't use it everyday maybe once a week sometimes not even. It's not because it's not useful I just don't need to find anything.

    Again, great place for a programmable convenience key to launch search.

    Is it possible for a headless app to take over the voice-command long button press action? That would make it more intuitive to pull up search with a button press instead of punching an icon on the home screen.
    SayIt is that headless app.

    Yes but followed by the album you want to listen to. I type 'play di' and then touch Dire Straits in the list.

    I actually used to search in the apps. For example to find a contact to call, I searched in the contacts app. Similarly in BBM contacts. But now all my searches originate from home screen and simplify a lot of common tasks such as play a music album or send a BBM message.

    I believe it stays open in case you tap on a result and it's not quite what you were looking for. A simple tap on an "X" closes the app.
