I Just Discovered This App - Header Tiles

[TeknoBlast]

I was reading an article in The Verge about Windows Phone and a commenter posted screenshots of his WP screen. What I noticed that he had headers seperating a group of apps. Similar that Windows 8.1 has when you group apps and you can name that group. The commenter did mention the app name and I looked it up and installed it.

I tried it out and oh my goodness, it makes the screen beautiful and very organized.

I would have easily paid for this app if the dev changed for it. It's very easy to use

Here's one screenshot so you can see. The app simply creates dummy tiles that contains the text and icons.

Looks like the app has been around a while, but I just discovered it today. Enjoy everyone.

Looks nice, but it takes extra space

I like that extra space between the header and the set of apps above it. Gives it that nice separation and clean look. At first, it looks weird, but once I set up several header tiles and grouped my apps under each header, looks much much better.

I'm sure it's not for everyone, but I'm really liking this app. never even thought of a header app until I saw that one poster in the article. I've always used the folder to keep some apps in. Now, I just keep some of my most used apps on the outside while some stay in a folder, like the one you see in the picture.

Space is good.....

Also, you can create templates of the header tiles you create from scratch. So you create one header tile and save it as a template. Then you can copy that template and make the minor changes that's needed. For me it's mainly the title and icon. Text size may need adjusting denpending on the word length.

Not only that, you can back up your custom headers to OneDrive.

I've been using this since it came out, maybe 1? yrs ago. It's excellent, makes things look organized. You'll tend to put your titles by groups... personlisation!!!!
