dynamic Settings view

Recent and most used. Let user organize and nickname the options
 
(+1, -1)
 

I thought I said it all in the summary. Then I started writing details and there's more and more.

A new UX for settings: Make the Settings of any app, and especially the phone settings a dynamic experience.

Give it an AI search textbox, that remembers your recent searches and actions, remembers the changes you made and can toggle between the states.

You can remark on a setting, and give it a nickname so you can find it again.

You can organize the interface the way you want it, hide away options you don't need and add ones you do need from a different page.

It knows what's popular, and widely useful and what's hidden away. This way it cuts away the clutter, or sees what your looking for and shows you the surprising options you never knew existed.

It knows the client complaints and solutions, and can try to detect you running into these problems, and help you get out of that situation, or never enter it in the first place.

It can group the actions you need done together or in a sequence, and can walk you through them.

Google, please be first to do this on your chrome and google account settings page.

The dynamic settings can even be applied to "setting themes" dynamically moving between detected states" Quiet mode, Working in English but giving instructions (Speech to text) in Hebrew, Night-time theme. Lost glasses. Etc.

I don't know if they're any good. [pertinax, Feb 15 2026]





       OK I'm an old man. Started off here when I was a kid!!!   

       There's no mobile section under computer! That's how old this is.

       If you delve into the world of Linux phones (which I haven't), someone has probably done this already.

       There were Linux phones?   

       Obviously, someone in the leadership of the Linux LAMP world had a problem understanding the part called intuitive in the "attractive, interactive, intuitive" part of the UX. Otherwise, why weren't those phones adopted? Or maybe it was marketing?
