Show More Tiles: On or Off?

[jchapman01]

Hi guys! I have a serious question that needs answering that could have over arching ramifications for generations to come!

Do you guys have the Show More Tiles option turned off or on? Just not sure what to do, ya know?

I have it on on my Lumia 1020. Just fits more on the screen. The other icons when the option is turned off, just seem so big now!

I have the 1520 but mine is set to off. I can get the same effect using Folders, which I use extensively.

 

[Pieter Wolff]

Off due to failing eye sight...

The only time I turn mine off (not by choice) as when I have to reflash the rom or do a hard reset as it is off by default lol.

I'm curious to see how many 8X owners will respond to this thread.

I use it on my 920. Only for a month so far. If I wasn't using #TileArt I would have it turned off with this size screen.

I recently went to 3-column layout on my L720 and like that I don't have to scroll the start screen any more...however the text on some live tiles is now mighty small. Just ordered a L830 so all should be well again!

The 1520 doesn't have that option as it automatically shows more tiles anyway....

Off since text is excessively small on my 521 when it is on.

The Icon is the same way. I only have the option to have three columns. I do love my three columns, though. I'd keep it this way even if I had an option.

I use a Nokia Lumia 1020, and I keep it off. Simply because I feel that turned on the tiles are too small, and also for aesthetic.



My little brother has a Lumia 930 with the option turned on, and the slighty bigger screen and his start screen style, matches well.

So for me the factors to decide are 2:
Comfort and aesthetic

I have a Lumia 925 (4,5 inches). I turn it on so I can pin more tile to my start screen. I also find it more beautiful.

I use 2nd smallest lumia (620 with 3.8 inch screen), and I turn it on. The smallest tile is just about pinky fingernail size. But I like it, I just don't like 2 columns anymore, even in small screen. And so far I don't have serious problem about taping wrong tile in start screen.
Idk, maybe when I switch to larger screen I might want "Show even more tiles" option.

off on my 920 as i prefer large tiles and use folders.

 

[Peter Kraaijestein]

On and using folders

 

[altafmahmood]

I am using a 4 inch Lumia and I have the option turned to on. I prefer no small tiles though

Hey, Peter, what's that weather app you're using?

 

[gpobernardo]

On. I had too many apps that even the categorized folders won't fit in one glance in the start screen. I'm also not fond of the idea of a scrolling start screen... I like how I can see (almost) everything in just one glance.

 

[Peter Kraaijestein]

The weather app is AAA weather. It isn't in the store anymore but still working.

 

[eekaspider]

Off (on my 8X). The three column mode makes sense at 5"+, IMHO.
