Use coded for me 😂

I’m so much happier with List View

[–] RunningLikeALizard@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Same. The birds eye view is horrible. I never understood it.

Well it's faster

I usually just ask Siri to open whatever app I want opened.

Some of us are visual learners and it’s faster to use the icons.

Also, isn’t the list stuck in alpha order? Too much scrolling when I can just move the icons of the apps I use most to the top of this & have them all there without any scrolling.

Can you provide more screenshots? I'd really love to copy your layout... >_>

Thank you for this great tip!

Nah the randomness of colors have more style tbh. That’s just mad OCD

[–] TheSwampPenguin@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

No

Nah form follows function

Configured for my efficiency here.

  • Top: most used.
  • Middle: stuff I never use.
  • Bottom: funny and enough, stuff I use but not that often. Sticking them at bottom lets me always do one big swipe to get to them vs sometimes swiping too far and having to swipe back a bit when I put them one the second “page”. Fast, predictable, and easy.

tried this because it’s pretty, realized pretty fast i kept opening the stopwatch when trying to open the timer, now my screen looks pretty much the opposite!

[–] WildProToGEn@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

I color code everything already

[–] DCowboysCR@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

I wish we could rearrange the list view also.
