I only find it annoying that some are there and some aren't. I don't mind going to one area to play with the settings across several applications, and if the settings were instantly applied, it could be easier to switch between Settings and the application being tweaked, than back and forth within a application.

But otherwise introduce consistency, would be better so yeah I'd prefer it to be dropped to the current situation continuing.

It would still be nice to ensure that all application settings are in a consistent place though, for back-up purposed (though the UI and location aren't necessarily linked, I know).

Best to vote about this in TJC I guess.... FWIW, I think it's best if all configuration options are in Settings, otherwise you end up with applications placing the settings menu inconsistently and -worse- using real estate that you rarely need to access. I haven't touched the browser's settings for a while and I'm very happy that I don't have to deal with its option polluting the UI. I can't say the same about WebCat but only because they can't add the settings to the Settings menu.

YMMV though...

The term update is now used for hotfixes.

Private browsing will come with this update for sure.
Maybe lock screen media player controls will arrive with U12
Maybe IMAP IDLE/PUSH support

just check this link:
https://lists.sailfishos.org/piperma...ry/005661.html

Thanks. Changed. But does IT really matter if its an upgrade or update or PR... Didnt know that they changed the Word and dont really see the differance. To me its a strange thing becouse now it easier to the Word downgrade instead of upgrade if and when jolla do stupid design decision. So now jolla really have to make huge improvements in every upgrade to justify the word.

Now my expectation of next upgrade skyrocketed...but...

media art not load has been an issue since update 0. I think its related to tracker indexing and that is FOSS.

Upgrade? I'm sure I've had a few updates that definitely haven't been upgrades!

YMMV though...

Just for arguments:
I think, because it is not possible to force app devs to uniformly implement SF unified settings, and in reality there will surely be inconsistencies anyway, better let 'Settings' populate app menus - consistency known from every platform since birth.

Or should 'About' pages also have an unified place in Settings app, because these actually waste precious real estate in pulley menu.

Yes, YMMV, but depending on an app, i quite often find myself tapping or selecting 'Settings' menu item on an app during it's use.

I hope that one day Sailfish is going to support several users on one device with some sort of child restriction options. Then the tablet could make sense to me. Using it in the family.
