## Current Situation
The Voice Remote Pro (Second Edition) replaced the customizable "1" and "2" shortcut buttons from the first edition with a single Quick Launch button. When pressed, this button displays a menu with three customizable shortcuts.
## Suggested Enhancement
### Expand Quick Launch Menu Capacity
I strongly recommend expanding the number of customizable shortcuts in the Quick Launch menu from the current three to a minimum of 10-12, with the potential for even more. This expansion would offer several benefits:
1. Increased Personalization: Users could tailor their remote experience to a greater degree, accommodating more of their frequently used apps and functions.
2. Enhanced Efficiency: With more shortcuts available, users can access a wider range of content and features quickly, reducing navigation time.
3. Better Utilization of Screen Real Estate: The current three-shortcut menu doesn't fully utilize the available screen space. An expanded menu could make better use of this area without compromising usability.
4. Competitive Edge: This feature would differentiate Roku from competitors and potentially attract users who value extensive customization options.
### Implementation Suggestions
- Use a grid layout for the expanded menu to maintain easy navigation.
- Allow users to organize shortcuts into categories or pages for even more options.
- Implement a "favorites" system within the expanded menu for the most-used shortcuts.
## Rationale
This enhancement addresses the criticism that the new Quick Launch button is less convenient than the original programmable buttons. By offering more customization options, we can improve user satisfaction and potentially offset the loss of the immediate-access shortcut buttons.
