App folders is indeed appreciated! Making 4 app folders (settings, music, games, messaging) let me logically group 35 apps. Takes 2 taps to open any of them up. Good stuff

very odd that you can't add built in apps (e.g. calculator, settings, etc) to the folders

 

[horseybob]

You actually can have a settings folder with WiFi, Bluetooth, airplane mode, audio, etc. Not sure why calculator doesn't show up, though.

Only certain sub-settings, not the entire settings "app"

Just checking my background tasks and noticed that App Folder has been added to the open tasks. Is there a reason App Folder needs to run in the background?

Go to settings | applications | background tasks, tap the app that you're wondering about, and it gives you a description.

GDR3 required for this?

 

[SomethingSomethingDarkSide]

no GDR2 works fine

I love them! I saw this on a WPcentral video and downloaded immediately. No more scrolling long home screens.
Must say that the Nokia apps really develop this platform. WP would be only half as good without Nokia. I think MS knows this.
Nokia's additions spoil me so hard.
