Improve live tile
Live tiles are the heart of Windows Phone. And OneDrive's Live Tile is so.... dead.
The tile should be alive and more integrated. My suggestions:
* Make it transparent (match the phone's theme);
* Show something (pick one, more than one or add one).
A photo in my camera roll;
Let me configure a set of folders and alternate photos in them;
** Show some sort of "quick status" (something like "1 file updated" and "2 new folders");

Live tile will show latest uploaded photos and preview thumbnail of recently edited/uploaded documents.

I saw you did a nice job on Android, witch is now capable of changing the background image of Android Wear with some recent picture.
I think this would be great as a live tile, to show some recent pictures.

Tile transparency issue has been resolved with Windows 10 Mobile builds. But no live tile option yet. If MS provide live tile, make it optional and also provide manual folder selection for live tile view otherwise your personal contents will flash on the tile.

Totally agree. Although top priority I think should be transparency!

Or show the "quick status" on one side, and a photo on the other side. If there is no new "quick status", show the standard 1drive's cloud icon.
