  1. Increasing the number of phone numbers in the contact

    Why in the Outlook and Outluk.tsom A limited number of phone numbers per contact. Nowadays, many people have multiple mobile, work and home phone numbers. In Google there is a possibility for a large number of phone numbers. Suggest Mitsrosoft pay attention to it.
    Thank you

          • Agrupar aplicaciones en carpetas

            Es necesario que se puedan agrupar aplicaciones por carpetas ya que el listado y la ordenación por nombre hacen complicado el uso. Por ejemplo, poder agrupar todo tipo de diccionarios en una misma carpeta y la ordenación por carpetas.

            • return to active app after messaging

              Having text messages read over headsets is great and allowing responses is perfect. But when I am done, I need it to return to the previous active app. Otherwise I have to pull my phone out to do this. A pain when using a walking app because they can only log your route if the app is active.

                  • Please come up with Temple run and other fast pacing games...

                    If possible try to have all the games of Android or iPhone so that it can really compete with those OSs and we can show that windows phone is much better in playing those games then in any other devices...

                      • todos on start-/lockscreen

                        todos have to hit you in your face so that you don't forget about them. So wouldn't it be nice to have them shown on lockscreen to keep them on your mind?

                        • have adobe flash and shockwave compatible to the phone

                          I read in a post that had 5,724 votes by Mobile Guru who responded that Adobe has declined to support flash for mobile devices...this is false. I went to adobe's web link: http://www.adobe.com/devnet-apps/flashruntimes/certified-devices.html in which it list all the devices including mobile devices that it does support flash. So why does the windows phone don't? Does Adobe not like windows? I don't think so, because my windows computer has flash so what would be the real reason? Please respond...thanks

                                  • instagram, snapchat, wattpad and other android apps for windows

                                    I switched from an android to windows phone and I'd rather switch back to my ****** android. This Nokia Lumia 810 sucks. The Facebook app is confusing and the phone is just ******. If the windows phone had apps that I enjoyed on the android, I'd be happier with it.
