The webOS Wish List: Stacked wave launcher

There are a lot of cool ideas in webOS, and there are plenty of cool ideas that we're sure they've come up with in Sunnyvale over the past four years they just didn't have the time, money, and personnel to put together. Some they even patented, like

we picked out of Palm's patent portfolio a few months ago. The ideas was to allow you to pause on a wave launcher icon to open additional options, such as displaying favorites under Contacts or bookmarks from Web or direct-launching into different parts of Carbon.

The multi-layer wave launcher would allow for all manner of even faster webOS actions, be it firing off a tweet or calling the spouse. Just Type and Quick Actions are great for some things, but let's be honest - should you really have to bust out the keyboard to call the office and let them know you're running late? No, you really shouldn't have to do that. The office is already one of your favorites, but the only place you see those favorites is in the Phone app or when searching. Why not swipe > pause > pick > release?

Unlike some other Wish List items, the multi-layer wave launcher isn't or even or . This is taking after an idea that Palm already has, an idea that they own. And what good is an idea like this if you don't act on it?

Have your own thoughts on this entry? Of course you do - the comments are below. Surely you have your own ideas as to what ought be on the webOS wish list, and so .

      WebOS on LG Cinebeam HU915QE
      By quentar82
      In the specifications of this LaserTV it is shown that WebOS 6.0 should be installed on this device.
      The latest Device Firmware Version is 3.01.02 and i am missing the RTL+ App (Germany) which should be available with WebOS 6.0 
      So any info when there will be a "real" WebOS 6.0 available on the Cinebeam HU915EQE?

      Sky News stopped working after the webOS update
      By Roy Brown
      webOS updated, I think to 2023, on my C2 a couple of days ago. Since then the News option on the Sky News app no longer works, instead timing out. The Weather and Climate options still work, though.
      I have deleted and reloaded the Sky News app, but the problem remains.
      Does anybody have any suggestions of what I might try to get this working again, or is this something for LG, or Sky, to fix?

      Feature Request: Boot LG WebOS TV Directly to Home Screen Instead of Wallpaper
      By tomatowarden
      Hey everyone, I've been using my LG WebOS TV for some time now, and there's a small but impactful change I'd love to see. Currently, when the TV is turned on without an HDMI input, it defaults to displaying a wallpaper. It's not aesthetically pleasing, it's a bit of an inconvenience for users like me who primarily use the TV's smart features.My suggestion is to include an option that allows the TV to boot directly into the Home screen, displaying all the available apps and streaming options right away. This would streamline the user experience, making it faster and easier to access the services we use most.Would love to hear the community's thoughts on this. Cheers!
