Hello -
I have been enjoying the new Poly Lens software much more than the previous Plantronics Hub, but I have one minor annoyance to report that I believe should be addressed.
There is now an option to "Launch Poly Lens on Startup", which is great - however, when it launches, it brings up the Poly Lens window, every time you startup/login.
There should be a "Start Minimized" option as well (frankly it should be default), which allows the app to start and add itself to the notification area icons, but the Poly Lens window should not have to open on Startup/Login.

Hello - I have seen several updates released since this feature was requested. Any idea on when it will be introduced? This continues to be an annoyance, as there is no reason for me to be greeted by the Poly Lens window on every bootup.
How can this be considered to be acceptable? Plantronics Hub did not exhibit this behavior.

Hello @davemann
If you have any way of contacting someone from Poly sales this way you could be kept in the loop of when this feature could be introduced.
Best regards

I'm currently on version 1.1.26 of Poly Lens.
On every boot, the program starts in a normal window and not minimized, even though the slider is "on".
So basically the slider doesn't do anything.
A bug perhaps?
(have been running the previous Plantronics software for almost 10 years and never had any issues)

Hi Martin, Do not know if it is general issue, but my Lens Desktop 1.2.26 is running at start-up and is minimized.
BR.
Note: that this is not original installed in this version, but updated from previous version.
