[Android Apps and Games] guizmogwai:
Hello.

Thanks for your app.

I discovered it when I was searching an app to make folders to organize my apps.

It works very well.

I have only one question: is there an option to make the app react when we install a new app from the playstore and ask in which folder we want to put it? I search a bit but didn't find.

Thanks again and continue your excellent work.

[Android Apps and Games] bambapin:
Welcome and sorry for the late answer.

When a new app is installed, Jina tries to assign a tag automatically. If it fails, it shows a notification and the new app is put in the folder "without tags" and from there you can decide whether to assign it a tag and put it in a specific folder.

If you only use your own tags and you don't use live folders, there is an option to completely disable the automatic tagging (settings->experiments).

If this option is set, Jina will put all new apps inside the "without tag folder"
[Android Apps and Games] hotcell:
Disable automatic tags option IMHO should be ranged as the normal option, not the experimental hack.

Unrelated bug. When updating packages J new app notif icon came again. But no app icons in untagged folder. This time all packages were unlaunchable addons, so there were no reason for notification [I have no checkmark for analyzing them].
[Android Apps and Games] Clues:
Agreed on auto tag, I tag my own way, so I turn off auto. Auto category is a feature of many apps but wonder if everyone just turns it off.

My folder resize is borked. It mostly forgets right away, but if set as default it stays a bit. This feature is rare in apps, but important especially for one handed use. I generally want to tap things on the bottom right, but folder reverts to max size.
[Android Apps and Games] bambapin:
Ok ok you convinced me :) I moved the option to disable the automatic tags from the experimental functions to the default settings section.

[MENTION=1057334]hotcell[/MENTION] i fixed the notification bug, i'm working also on a modification of the icon picker, as soon as i finish i'll post the new version.

[MENTION=1177212]Clues[/MENTION] i need some more information on the folders resize problem. Does it happen with any folder? Do you use also the favorites sidebar to open the folders?
[Android Apps and Games] Clues:
When opened from the sidebar, the folder fills the remaining space, I wonder if that's when it unsets the custom size. I'm looking again here, I have it set to show them in the sidebar, need to set it popup folder mode...

But first, I found App Drawer -> Options -> Look and feel -> Base size of labels: "normal" -> tap the pen -> it shows small. But that's another issue.

Hrm went through all the settings for App Drawer, I don't see the folder popup setting, maybe it's in the sidebar settings. There are so many features, might need a settings-search!

Got it, Sidebar settings -> Favorites sidebar settings -> Inner Folders Navigation = "Open folders shortcuts made inside the sidebar"

I'll test again...

---------- Post added at 08:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:56 PM ----------

Open Sidebar = Favs -> folder -> opens to full top left area, with a little space on the left of the side bar showing home screen.

Top left options -> Resize -> set to 1/4 of screen -> Back -> tap folder again, it's full screen.

---------- Post added at 08:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:03 PM ----------

Opening from Home does keep the size and position. Folders can be moved and closed, opening again puts them where they were moved to. Is there any way we can make it open sized and positioned always?
[Android Apps and Games] bambapin:
I think I did a lot of mess with the size of the folders and the opening from the sidebar :o

I'm going to post a new version with several fixes in few minutes.

In sidebar settings there is a flag (Free folder position) that drive the folders behavior when they are opened from the sidebar.

Folders store their size and position in a distinct way if they are opened from the sidebar or from the home.

From the sidebar the folders are maximized by default unless the flag "Free folder position" is set.

In the current version there is a bug, if you try to resize a maximized folder when that flag is not set, the new size is interpreted by mistake as if it were relative to a folder opened from the home.

Fixed in the next b1024.
[Android Apps and Games] umetnic:
Feature: Max, Since we are keeping track about uninstalled apps, is it possible to record date of uninstall and add it to the uninstalled app details?

Since tracking of uninstalled stuff is useful to not install same things again for example, uninstall date could serve for even more accurate insight into when we tested/deleted particular app. Minor feature, but could come handy from time to time to easily remember.

[Android Apps and Games] Clues:
tags for tags

Would it be possible to tag all things?

Suggestion 1 - Tag (Live) Folders + Shortcuts

Live Folders would include tagged Shortcuts and Folders, including other Live folders.

Suggestion 2 - Magic Folders

A new type of object, Magic Folders, as an addition to shortcuts and (Live) folders. A magic folder would allow enhanced tagging like "include Stuff and Junk, but not Rubble" which is more CPU intensive. I'm not sure how much others would use this tho.

Magic Folders could be used for special complications of resizing and location (and coloring and font and...) to reduce the complexity of the basic system. Jina could remain a quick and easy dynamic folder system, with the ability to be extreme and tinker.

"Include Stuff but remove Rubble... then add Junk (even if some Junk is Rubble), shake, stir, and pour."

Suggestion 3 - SQL snips

But srsly.... :)

Sub-folder icons wrong

First off, thanks for a great app.

I use the folders a lot and I have many folders in folders. I find that quite regularly, the folders in folders have the wrong icon. They will show with the icon from another app that is in the same folder. The name is always correct, but the icon is wrong. When this happens, if I close the current folder and re-open it, the sub-folder icons are all correct.

I saw this with 3.1.1ga as well as 3.1.2 b1025. I'm on a Pixel 2XL running the Feb release of Oreo and using the stock launcher. I have custom icon images for all folders.

I'm happy to test.

Just have to say THANKS for this app and the continued support. While it has more than I need, it has almost everything that I need and want. Which is very rare in an app. Thanks again.
[Android Apps and Games] mcarver2000:
Some feedback from a new happy user:

1) Backups

a) Would like to see the backup file names automatically include a timestamp. I like to keep multiple backups so I can fall back to a previous backup. Currently the file name is static and a new backup overwrites the previous one.

b) Would like to see "share" added to backups as an option. This will allow saving to cloud or emailing backups. Same for restore.

2) Not sure when, but with the latest beta the background/text when editing folders on desktop no longer work as the stable store release. Now the background does not match the folder settings and the text color is black against a dark background - almost impossible to read.

3) Editing names: please use a regular text field. Currently the field is being seen as a possible password field. Keyboard and autofill on Android 8+ respond as if it's a password field. Also this may have been introduced in the beta - when editing a folder in a folder on the desktop, the name to edit is blank.

Welcome [MENTION=3401048]mcarver2000[/MENTION] and thank you!

You're right, the last beta broke the dialog boxes in the folders. This version should fix, i also changed the type of input for the name of the folders and tags, but no apps because i have to check better (there are filters to avoid characters not allowed in various languages).

For backup instead I was already working on a different solution, through a dedicated app. If I can, tomorrow I'll post the prototype so you get an idea.

Still issues with folders on the desktop.

1) Folder > Tools I needed to reset the Look & Feel background settings to get readable Look & Feel, Settings and Device Settings pages.

Agreed, for a little backup like this, I don't mind a bunch of history files. It's good to be able to go back easily. Sometimes I save an apps current state, then restore, then maybe go back to the one I was on.

[Android Apps and Games] mcarver2000:
Magic Folder is one that is conjured by linking multiple tags to automatically populate the folder. For me, there are more tags than I want for folders. I would like to create live folders from multiple tags.
[Android Apps and Games] bambapin:
You can. Create a custom folder, insert into this one all the live folders you want and then press the "flatten" button (lower left corner)
[Android Apps and Games] mcarver2000:
Stand corrected. Perhaps what I really want is "magic" tags. Ones that can contain more than 1 link to a store category. This would make the automatic linking to live folders more flexible? For me there are more tags/categories than I need (way too many), so I have turned off the automatic linking and have to manually add new apps to a live folder. But, then again I may be missing something already there.
[Android Apps and Games] abhinandanbr:
Nice app. Love the sidebar feature. Needs UI improved.
[Android Apps and Games] mcarver2000:
That's a pretty broad brush. It would be more helpful if you could suggest exactly where/what needs improving.

---------- Post added at 05:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:57 AM ----------

On 2nd & 3rd thoughts, I think it would be a bad idea to have magic tags. I've never trusted the categories from the store. I lose apps if I let them get automatically assigned. They end up in a folder other than the one I would have picked. It's safer for me to manual select them from the "without tags" folder, after disabling automatic tags. However, I seem to have encountered a pothole (possible bug?).

When I first go to Tags Management I only see tags that I created, I always have to toggle the show automated tags to see all tags. One would think this to be a toggle, so that the next time I open Tags Management, I see all tags. Now for the pothole, I only see tags that I created (and not automatic tags) when I try to assign an app without a tag. Since I have created live folders from automated tags, I may want to be able to assign an app to an automated tag. Trying to assign tags from "app detail" or "choose tag" my only options are from tags I created. I deleted all automatic tags that I did not use for live folders, leaving 9 automated tags & about 10 created tags.
