APP folder , Lumia Black

[Boris Lozac]

What an useless app lol. Only applications and some of the settings? No pinned websites, contacts, shortcuts for my remote control etc..

Have you let Thor smack it with his hammer a couple of times and see if that helps LOL.... sorry just couldn't resist

Thor's hammer isn't what it used to be

His point was that the app folder takes up the space of 4 small tiles...

The app folder can be reduced to a single tile.

if there are only 4 tiles in the app folder, it's kind of pointless.

Not if you like things organized and uncluttered.

Deleted a few apps that I don't use and tiles are back working. Folders aren't perfect but I still like this app.

The app folder can be reduced to a single tile.

It can also be made into a wide tile. But since we were talking about four tiles, it was obvious that we were talking about the medium tile. Apparently we should have said so for those either without the ability to figure that out or the proclivity to get snarky when someone isn't specific enough for them.

Yeah, the speed needs to pick up a little. You can do contacts from you address book so why have them in the app folder. A sort of notification would be good if it's a live tile. Maybe able to choose different tile colors as well. I'm sure they'll add more stuff, just have to wait like everything else.

LOL, nothing snarky intended, just pointing out the obvious.

Why the hell does APP FOLDER sits in Background Tasks?

To update the live tile should you uninstall one of the apps.

Read the description when you open the background task. It tells you what the background task does

 

[Boris Lozac]

This system seriously needs to revisit that whole live tile thing lol. Folder that needs a background task..

Call me crazy, but I actually find this folder stuff cluttering my homescreen more. Maybe it's just me, but I use my homescreen for just updates and keep the apps on the right because it saves me time and headache of having to scroll and find what I'm looking for on the homscreen, rather than having it already alphabetically sorted for me. I had 4 folders pinned to my homescreen, but it made it more confusing to just get to the app I wanted because I had to scroll, find the name of the folder or look for the icon of the app (and that's IF the icon was on the Live Tile, which is more of a problem because now I have to think about organizing the apps based on importance in the folder in a specific order so that the tiles appear), etc...it just makes things unorganized for me when using my phone.

I think the alphabetical list if perfect because it's already cleaned up for you and always consistent. Again, I'm probably in the minority here because I use my homescreen for updates (with the exception of music, game, and photos hub because it is a collection for a multitude of apps), so my homescreen literally only consists of apps that have updates i care about and twitter contacts pinned to it; other than that (with the exception of IE and the new "New Note" option from OneNote), I have don't have apps pinned to my homescreen and keep them to the right.
