New gesture: double tap on home button to lock screen from anywhere. Now you can only use the power button if not on home screen.
Always enable the home button (or bottom bar) for double tap to lock screen. Just like in windows 10 mobile.

Would it be possible to add a swipe left gesture?
I would like a swipe left gesture to be added so I can mimic my windows 10 mobile function of transitioning from the home screen and the all apps list.

Manage media/app sound
There is no control to manage the media/app sound. It will be really great to manage it on gestures.

I would like to have the possibility to instantly deactivate the screen (not locking the phone) when I double-tap the screen. (no 5 sec.)
With my last launcher, I was able to double tap my screen and instantly deactivate it without locking the phone. Here, the only way is to wait that 5 seconds black screen and after that it shuts the display. If the other option is checked, it locks the screen and also the phone and when I want to turn back on the screen it shows me the unlock screen. The problem with that 5 second screen bothers me because if in that time, I accidentally touch the screen, it stays black but open and I have to press the back…

physical keyboard
blackberry phones have a physical keyboard binded with shortcuts. this still work while navigating other apps, but don't while on the home screen because of the phone research, which opens every time a button is pressed. it would be great to add the possibility to turn off this functionality

double tap to lock screen AND unlockable with fingerprint
Double tap to lock is a nice feature as it is convenient. Dont see why unlocking the device has to bring about such inconvenience if we cant use our fingerprint to unlock the device but have to type our admin password.

Allow removing icons & folders from your homescreen by flicking them off the screen
In many popular launchers including the official Google/Android launcher, you can remove icons, shortcuts etc. by quickly flicking them towards the edge, they will slide off the screen and be removed.
I'd like to see this functionality in Microsoft Launcher, too.1 vote -

Option for swipe up twice. Once to open extended dock and then again to open full app drawer.
Option to swipe up on the home screen. Once to open extended app drawer and then again to open the app drawer. Similar to pixel launcher where one swipe on the home button gets the user to recent apps and then additional swipe pulls up the app drawer. The swipe up on dock feature is nice but I find that I will accidentally open an app often when swiping up or down on the dock. Not sure if that is a touch sensitivity issue or something but if that can be fixed then disregard this idea. Thanks.

What about being able to configure screen corners to open apps, like 4 more gestures?
To simply slide my finger from any corner to start an app, or an action. And have the option to activate one, all or none of the four corners .
