Cthlu ,

Nathan, Thank you for making this browser. Some things that I would like to see in the future: *the ability to tweak the shape of windows to allow for a curvature to be added to the window pane. This would allow for viewing of the window from a wider angle, similarly to curved televisions *the ability to have minimized windows represented as a customizable (even if the representation is just a colored mote of light) object that may be toggled to be shown while off screen or stashed in a virtual tray *The ability to resize windows *voice to text support when typing in text *the ability to set a wallpaper to the virtual environment or to change the color of the background *the ability to toggle an “anchoring” object analogous to a desk, floor, or representation of a plain room with a contrasting colored floor to help prevent simulation sickness from the sensation of looking into cyberspace floating with no reference point *Wireless mouse support: the mouse could move the focal point in 2d space within a sphere around the user as long as the head doesn’t move out of a dead zone to allow for less head movement if desired by the user. Also, many people already own Bluetooth mice and it may make your app more accessible for people that don’t own the daydream controller Thank you again for your meaningful contribution. I appreciate you taking the time to develop this

Thanks, Cthlu! I'm so glad you took the time to send me your thoughtful feedback. I included a response below for each item you described. Let me know if you have other ideas or feedback, and feel free to email me at viewportbrowser@gmail.com. It looks like the App Store removes newlines from replies, so sorry if this is hard to read.



1. "the ability to tweak the shape of windows to allow for a curvature to be added to the window pane."



I agree - I've bumped up this feature's priority on my roadmap based on your feedback. This would be especially useful for when multiple windows are opened side-by-side, because currently the window flatness makes it difficult to position them next to each other without colliding.



2. "the ability to have minimized windows represented as a customizable (even if the representation is just a colored mote of light) object that may be toggled to be shown while off screen or stashed in a virtual tray"



I appreciate your thoughts on this! Although my plan is to incrementally introduce features to provide a desktop-like experience, I honestly haven't put much thought yet into what the window minification feature will look like. I like your idea of representing windows as colored motes of light, though, and I added this feature to my roadmap along with a note with your feedback.



3. "The ability to resize windows"



This is supported in the app today, but it sounds like I may need to make this feature easier to discover. If you hover over the edge or corner of a window, the cursor turns into a double-sided arrow, and you can click and drag the cursor to resize.



4. "voice to text support when typing in text"



This is also badly needed! The good news is that this is one of the next features that I plan to tackle, so look for this to be added in the coming weeks.



5. "the ability to set a wallpaper to the virtual environment or to change the color of the background"



Update: I just released an update to allow the background image and color to be updated by selecting the "Change background" option from the browser's dropdown menu.



6. "the ability to toggle an “anchoring” object"



This is really interesting, and something that I had never thought about. This seems like something I could add fairly quickly, so I added this to my roadmap and plan to add it.



7. "Wireless mouse support"



I'm glad you mentioned this, because it has been a while since I thought about wireless mouse support. You have a good point about wireless mice being common (probably even more common than Bluetooth keyboards, I'm now realizing). Now that the app can support different types of pointer devices, I'll take another look this. Thanks for your idea about minimizing the cursor movement with respect to head position, too.
