Mostly the title. I try to keep my apps inside relevant folders, but this is getting tedious.
I’m wondering if it may be better to keep apps of one kind (e.g., maps/navigation) on their own screen and other apps (e.g., social media) on a separate screen.
Is it easier to swipe by screen or to keep similar apps in folders? What do you think?
@RecursiveParadox Absolutely no sorting into folders. Especially not manually sorting.
Back when Aviate! was an Android launcher, before it was acquired by Yahoo and then ruined, it did the most logical thing: auto-group apps by category, location based, messenger, games. Best of all, it did not change the home screen much. Swiped right it showed the (four? five? don’t remember) most recently used app per square. All most recently used apps were always on the same screen, no opening of folders to see them, and always (after the swipe right) just a single tap to start the app. A tap on the category would open it to see others of the same category. With Aviate sorting manually was exposed as a total waste of time.
Today, Niagara Launcher “sorts” apps by the few favourites you define, and the rest is sorted by “the alphabet” with the side bar thing that zikzak025 shows. That too eliminates manual sorting, but I think folders are possible.
