Create manual folders or transparent rules that keep their contents useful.

A walkthrough is coming soon

This written guide is complete now. A focused video for this exact topic will be added here after recording.

Planned

Create a folder by dragging one app onto another. Classic folders open a normal grid. Large folders expose direct targets, and cover mode can use the first app as the visible folder face.

A Living Folder updates from a rule while keeping deliberate pins first. Sources include Android categories, Recently installed, Work profile and launcher Favourites.

How to do it

  1. Drag one app onto another, then long-press the folder to rename it.

  2. Choose Classic, Large or first-app cover behaviour.

  3. Open Folder content, switch from Manual to Smart and choose a source.

  4. Long-press a derived app to pin it permanently or exclude it.

  5. Use Restore excluded apps in the content editor when needed.
