Hi,

#### WHAT DO YOU RECOMMEND?

In one of the last updates to android there was a overview page added where you can see all your spaces or channels.

This is definitely useful for people who uses multiple spaces! Since I only use one space this feature means another extra click to get to my configured home page inside the space.

#### HOW COULD IT BE DONE?

Maybe there could be an app preference for marking a space as favorite, so it opens directly when starting the app.

#### REAL WORLD USE CASES

I think it would also be an useful option for users with multiple spaces (maybe they have a work device, where they can select their work space as favorite, and one private device, where they can mark their private space as fav).

#### RECOMMENDED ALTERNATIVES

+1, and I like the per-device angle. A simple version could be a “Start in” preference with three choices: the spaces overview, the last space I had open, or one specific space. “Last opened” alone would cover most single-space users, and keeping the setting per device would handle the work phone and personal phone split without syncing a choice that only makes sense on one of them. A home-screen shortcut that opens straight into a chosen space would be a nice extra too.
