You can pin apps you always use so they do not change in the future when you are in that location and also remove apps, although I have to test if those are removed permanently when I get a review unit. The smart launcher widget can be resized and includes the applications you use most often in those particular geographic areas. By default, there are work, home, and out locations, but you can customize this with places like the gym, commute, and more.
HTC Sense 7 has a new widget, loaded out of the box, that acts as a 'smart launcher' where application shortcuts change based on your location. In the past HTC Sense has had the ability to select scenes (I think it was with Sense 3 or 4), yet I never knew a single person that actually switched scenes.
This is a rather brilliant way of helping people create completely personal devices in less than a minute. I love how you can select a photo you have captured and apply that as the wallpaper while the HTC software creates several color, icon, and font options based on that selected photo. It is now very easy to download or create your own theme, including the ability to share that theme with the community. HTC Sense has always appealed to me and the few improvements in Sense 7 add a level of customization that I think will appeal to the masses who like to personalize their phones. It is faster and easier to implement in today's smartphones. Granted this is more of a convenience for me than anything else and like my MoTR podcast co-host, Kevin Tofel, I am coming around to the belief that Quick Charging is a better solution than wireless charging. The HTC One M9 doesn't have wireless charging due to the full metal casing. However, HTC is releasing an Active case with IP68 rating and drop-resistant protection so there is a way for me to take it running in Washington State. The HTC One M9 is not water resistant and while HTC could have incorporated some coating solution for a few areas, it was not possible with everything that is contained in the metal shell.
