Developers are working to improve the OS

One of the issues that are still bothering Ubuntu users is the fact that apps still take a long time to load when they are opened for the first time. It might not seem like an important issue, but they make the platform feel laggy.

The user experience on Ubuntu Touch has been improved tremendously over the past year, and that's really obvious, but some issues still remain. When you first open an application, right after a reboot, it takes a really long time, even if it's just the Dialer app. If it doesn't close the app and just dismisses it, it will open instantly. The developers are aware of the problem, and they've said they are looking at ways to fix it.

"Community team members have confirmed that Canonical is aware of the issue. They have also said that it is internally discussed, and they are working on it. They have also said that in their case the issue is not one big issue why applications are launching so slowly, but rather they have many small issues. Some of them are in AppArmor, others in the launching script, the SDK, etc...," said the developers in a recent Q&A.

An Ubuntu fan wrote the main ideas from that Q&A Session, but you can also check the entire video below.
