Third row of tiles makes start screen too small on 4.5" and below

[anotherlab]

I tried it for a while on my 8X, but the text was too small for my eyes to read comfortably and I switched back.

On my 920, I have third row option tuned on, and i use only middle and large tiles - and my screen never looked better. Small tiles are too small using that option though.

I have Lumia 820 and initially I thought my start screen look shabby with extra row of tiles.. But after using it for a day and playing with different background pics, I am actually loving it Here is the latest layout...

Love the extra column on my 920. It was a little different at first, but within 15 mins, I was hooked. Now I can use more larger tiles that display more info rather than just icons/symbols.

Love it.

I think it's more just a jarring experience because everyone is used to a specific set of sizes for the tile. Squeeze on an extra row of icons everything is going to have to scale down to fit them onto the screen.

At first I wasn't sure if I'd like it or not. My biggest concern was fat fingering the small tiles and hitting a nearby tile instead but that hasn't really been an issue. You could just use medium and wide tiles to compensate for the smaller scale of the tiles though.

Very nice on my Lumia 925

I love it on my 920, but only with stock/bland themes. Having a background image makes it too hard to read text on the tiles

I love the extra tile space on my 920.

Now I can up-size certain formerly-small tiles to medium (so that they show their label) and I can fit a lot more small tiles (e.g. for all my messaging apps).

I love the 3rd tile on my 520! This makes it easier to have all your apps available without having to scroll. I like it.

Yeah it is kind of small but its okay I can get along with it cause its much organized now.

 

[rcazador]

Not for me. I find it entirely usable, and as someone who hates scrolling all the time just to get to my apps, this saves me a lot of time. I'm using a 4.3" Lumia 822 and even calendar tiles like Simple Calendar are readable. All this talk about small tiles being unusable is ridiculous, they're still larger than the keys on the Keyboard, if we can type then we can use the third column for smaller screens as well.

Works perfect on my 928. I ain't ever going back!!!!

looks beautiful on 520, everything looked a little too small at first, but after experimenting a bit, it looks amazing. I can fit so much more into the screen without having to scroll up and down
