@DdmrDdmr exactly what I am saying/am afraid of.

I am only able to keep 2 apps on my Ledger Nano S and I am not happy about it.

There are lies, damned lies and statistics. MTwain
Ledger Nano S’s firmware 1.5.5 messed up and, deliberately or not, effectively reduced the available space for loading Apps quite noticeably. Before the update, I could hold 6 or 7 apps, but the update cut that down by nearly half. The apologized and recognized their error (see https://www.ledger.com/righting-our-1-5-5-nano-s-firmware-update), committing to revert the situation by end of Q2 2019.

Nevertheless, the most recent blog entry referenced in the OP does not address this issue. What’s more, it seems to push users to considering Ledger Nano X by highlighting on a Nano S official entry blog that Nano X supports 100 apps. No date of a new firmware release has been made public yet (at least I haven't been able to find it).

Yes, It’s pretty lame, and although one can keep track elsewhere of what the Ledger protects, and load/unload apps at will, it does seem rather much a pi.t.a. if you want to do it regularly with just a few simultaneously manageable apps. I do get the feeling they will keep their commitment. We’ll see.

They promised to fix the firmware to be able to support a bigger number of installed apps. This was supposed to happen in Q2 and it is almost over.

I do not know what you really want to say whit this post? Ledger Nano S is limited with storage and that is fact, but they fulfilled their promise and reduce size of Ethereum app, so you can have from 3-7 apps in same time on Nano S, depending which app you install.

I do not know how much apps you have in same time before 1.5.5 firmware, but I remember that somebody mentioned that it is possible to have up to 18 apps. If you need more just buy Nano X, this is new device and it is quite normal that new must be better then old, who would otherwise even took it into consideration to buy it?

New firmware is on the way, but as Ledger say, this is device from 2016 and it is limited in its capabilities.

I really don't have any remarks regarding the available space for storing apps. I store my most valuable assets on Ledger such as BTC and ETH and for the rest you can always uninstall one of your apps in order to install another one you need at that particular time. You will not lose your assets when you uninstall an app so don't worry about it.

They put this blog post basically telling us it won't happen?

This is just some smooth talking making me think they won't fix it. Have they been leading us on in order to try to get us to buy the X?

I want the functionality back!!
I do not think they are after it. They will fix it soon. Ledger built up a good reputation and they are not gonna put it in stake. I am using Ledger from last 2016 or so I think.
