Notifications About New Features Should Be In WebOS!

Palm,
Please listen, we all love your updates especially when new features like contact addresses can be launched in Sprint Nav. And I know from listening and personally talking with Jon Rubinstein how much he cares about the customer experience. But most of your customers like my mom or sister wouldn't know that update 1.3.5 had this new feature. I personally knew about it's existence but had to search on how to toggle between the two.
It's important you show off exciting new features and how to use them. My suggestion is to have pop-up tutorial after an update that says something like, "WebOS has just updated and there are new features on your phone now. Press here to learn about them." This would launch an animated guide. Otherwise the only way most people will find out about them will be by accident if at all.
Please make this happen and thanks for all the great work.
Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

I agree with you. A lot of easter egg features. I think some people like that, but for the common user who does not like searching for these hidden things It can hinder there experience. 
I don't know if I would like the tutorial on the phone idea though. I mean in theory its nice, but those will add to the download time. And sometimes when those updates are released, they don't exactly come speeding fast regardless of wifi or not. 
I think instead what would be nice, with the ability to watch flash in the web browser coming soon, maybe just include a link that pops up, or one you can click in the Update App that directs the browser to a flash showing the new features. Would not force everyone to download extra files, and have the option of viewing it from any PC if you want.

  • Notification about new purchase made on other iOS device

    Hi,
    I would like to ask if there is an option to get notification about new purchases made on other iOS devices? Autodownload feature is cool but it's an "all or nothing" situation. I don't want to download every app to my iPad what I bought on my iPhone and vice versa.
    IF I remember well, when I set up my new iPhone and made a purchase on my iPad, iPhone asked me about turning on/off autodownload. But after that I have no notification. Or my memory is bad and it didn't happened.
    Thank You for your help!
    Janos
    P.S.: I know it is not the perfect community for my question but there is no community such as "App Store", "iOS App Store usage" as there is one for Mac App Store.

    Thanks for your answer! Yes, I tried that but that's not what I would like to use.
    If I turn on "Automatic Downloads" for Apps e.g. or Books, it'll download all the Apps I buy elsewhere.
    I would like to get only a notification like "You've downloaded XY app on an other device. Would You like to download it now?". Is there any option for this?

  • How to a make a suggestion about new features i'd like to see in itunes

    how to a make a suggestion about new features i'd like to see in itunes?
    I can't find any link to do this. I found a page where you can request songs or an album to be added, but i can't find a page to submit my suggestions for itunes i have for new features i'd like to see

    As of now there is no good, direct link for feedback on iTunes itself. Writing Apple might be the best option, with the website feedback page perhaps the next best.

  • What new features should be in the second gen. iPod Touch?

    title basically asks the question.
    These can be hardware or software new features.

    iCal needs some desperate improvements to be a good PDA. Like floating events and a better alarm that goes off more than just once.

  • How to deactivate notifications about new mail?

    When I have an active mail account, I always get a notification when a new mail arrives. Can this be deactivated? I'd rather check manually at my own time, rather than having these notifications pop up several times every day.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    This depending on the devices, but for example on S60 devices, select Settings (or ctrl. panel or Tools) > Profiles > Highlight profile, for example general > personalise > Email alert tone (or mail alert tone) > Off. You can also change the alert tone.

  • "Missing" new features in Amber?

    Some customers have posted about new features which seem to be absent from their phones after the Amber update.
    FM Radio
    This is a new feature for Lumia 520, 521, 720, 820, 920 and 925. You will find Radio as a new option in Music and Videos, see the screen shot below, it will not appear as a separate app in your app list.
    FM Radio is not available in Lumia 620, 810 and 928 as these models do not have all of the necessary hardware.
    Double-Tap and Glance Screen
    These are features first require an updated version of "Display+Touch", you should be offered this as a suggested app update by the Microsoft Store app or Store live tile shortly after updating. If you haven't seen the notification yet, you can search the store for the app and download the update directly.
    Also, please note that these features are not switched on by default:
    Double-tap to awaken (Not available on Lumia 520, 521, 620 or 720) - go to Settings>Display+Touch, slide sideways to "Double-Tap" and tap the tick-box.
    Glance screen (not available on 520/521) - go to Settings>Display+Touch, slide sideways to "Glance" and choose "Peek" for display when you hand is held over the phone (this option used the proximity sensor), "Timed" for a fifteen minute display of the Glance screen after the phone locks or "Always on".

    For phones at about 25% the price of an iPhone these models hold their own pretty well. I find the remarks here  quite laughable and hilarious. You buy a budget phone, where technical and hardware compromises have to be made to bring cost down. The notion you paid for features which become available at a later date for some models  is just ridiculous and childish.
    I refuse to believe anyone with a sane mind would go beserk over a trivial feature not available to them. Good luck with your double tap to wake feature on your iPhone.. oh wait.. Android then.. damn again..
    Get a life people, you sound like a bunch of crybabies.

  • New feature phones anytime soon?

    Are there going to be any new feature phones anytime soon? I haven't seen any that I like, and am just wondering if there will be any new ones in the near future. Most of the ones sold now are absolutely worthless and the rest (theres only 1 or 2 of them) don't really line up with my tastes and I'd be better off keeping my old phone then get a new phone that will fall apart in a few months or getting one I don't want.
    And please don't just give me the link to the feature phones , I'm completely capable of looking there myself and also please don't tell me to sign up for updates, as I'd rather be told by an actual person than being sent a generic email that doesn't really give me the information I'm asking for.
    I'm just curious if anybody has any information about new feature phones coming out this summer. I'd like a phone with at least some of the capabilities of a smartphone, or at least a phone that looks nice and works well, but I'm unable to have a data plan since all my money is going towards a college bill and my parents are in control of my phone bill.

    Appearently new phones running MP Brew are in the works but I don't suspect they will be out until late this year.  This question has been posted more than a few times and Verizon is unwilling to give an answer.  The fact that no one is previewing a phone should also be telling as to when the new phones will ship.

  • New Features for Java GUI

    Hello everyone!
    Can anybody tell about new features in SAP GUI for Java. I think It's emasculate now. It doesn't contain New ABAP editor, Network graphic, normal Screen Painter... I really enjoy adding themes and other stuff, but when these functionality will be added?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
      I use Java GUI from version 6.40, so i didn't know new ABAP editor for years. Once somebody shows me its features ...and I found that it is really good editor compared with previous Notepad-like frontend editor. But I have to say that customized version od Gvim used as external editor is in 90% better then new ABAP editor (the only problem is that double click on object doesn't work, but some workarounds are known for double-click on locally defined objects).
    Graphical screen painter is generally good tool, but once I cannot find any feature (sorry, I forgot which one, it happens about 6 years ago). I ask a SAP guru sitting near me. He comes, switch graphical screen painter off and click to a box in non-graphical version of screen painter. Then he told me that some features are not accessible in graphical screen painter. It was last time I used graphical version of screen painter.
    Themes? Works .... at least for me (Linux 32 bit and now Linux 64 bit too).
    So I think that Java GUI is usable (at least on Linux/Mac, I am not sure how in works under Windows) but you cannot stick on all features (and maybe you can find better working variants of it). E. g. I have no problem with new ABAP editor, it would be much better for me, if I can open external editor clicking to "Change" button in SE38 directly instead of click plus selecting external editor from menu.

      Pavel

  • New features in 11.5.10

    Could please anyone tell me how can I obtain info about new features per module 11.5.10 vis a vis 11.5.8?

  • Jdev 11.1.2.3 new features

    Hi,
    I'm using jdev 11.1.2.3 and yesterday some new features were released to JDev 11.1.1.7.
    I would like to know if those new components like, timeline, treemap, sunburst will be available in 11.1.2.3 and when.
    Thank you.

    hi, jhon
    The information from your reply is valuable for me. and I think these information should be included in the jdev release note.
    and if jdev 11.1.2.x is the future of jdev, new features should be added to this versions first.--right?
    Before i read your reply this afternoon, i download jdev 11.1.1.7, and replaced jdev 11.1.2.3 in my computer with jdev 11.1.1.7.
    but to my astonishment, i beleive the startup of jdev 11.1.1.7 was much slower than jdev 11.1.2.3.
    and after migrating one of my simple app developed in jdev 11.1.2.3, the jspx page can no longer display in visual design mode correctly--(can only show in a tree-structure text mode,not in WYSIWYG mode).
    so i have to uninstall the jdev 11.1.1.7 at once.
    If i have read your above posts earlier, i would not have made this useless try.>>>>

  • I've downloaded the 5.0 update and not all the new features are there.  Just the news stand, reminders and videos.  I double checked on the update and it says it's up to date.  What should I do now?

    I've downloaded the new 5.0 update and not all the new features are there.  Just the newsstand, reminders and videos icons plus icloud.  Everything else is the same as before.  What should I do now?  It says I have the latest update.  ???

    Hummmm, you might not be missing anything... From what I understand, really the only new visible add-on apps type programs are Newstand and Reminders. The Notification Center seems to be about how your info and alerts are pushed to your screen and you control that thru the phone settings>General>Notifications, the panel is accessed by swiping downward from the top of your screen. Weird I know, should be more obvious. Enjoy!
    Don't forget, you can now use the volume button on the side of your phone to take photos. I really like this!
