Icon preview and download application?? - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi All,
The past few days i've been trying to find an app on the playstore that will allow me to view a category array of icons within the application and then let me download them (preferably free)? Basically something that will allow me to browse through a vast number of icon sets to preview them first before downloading. Does such an app exist? Also i am using Nova Launcher
Thanks

App drawer organizer

I have a horrid amount of apps and I need a way to organize my apps
Was curious if there were any apps that are capable of organizing the app drawer with folders to sort the apps.
If there's no app for it is there a way to manually create folders like in WinMo's start menu.

Afaik there is no way to easily organize the drawer, i am currently using one of my homescreens as drawer with a app called "apps organizer" wich lets you create labels for apps and use those labels as shortcut with a popup menu containing all aps with that label

The panda home organize apps by the initial letter's.
tell me if i'm wrong. cheers.
Apparantly I was wrong, extendedhome can organize the app drawer.

Dunno how good it is compared to other homescreen replacements though...
A better known home replacement capable of this is dxtop, this is not a free app though.

with launcher pro u can hide apps in your draw that u dont want to see
Thanks for all the suggestions I'm gonna go try some of them ... I use launcher pro and wasn't aware that out allows you too hide apps

dxTop has this capability as well. Used to be my favorite home replacement.
you could use ADW.Launcher or LauncherPro as home replacement
and then add an organizing app like Smart Shortcuts or Apps Organizer to the dockbar
this is genius in fact. i'm thinking about doing that myself!
no more need to spread essential app icons all over different home screens
That's what I'm trying to do minimize my home screens I'm already using Launcher Pro and I was looking at an app that is in beta just can't find the thread for it and can't quite remember the name it was like slip-something

organize apps in CORE ROM
Hi,
Can anybody help me, I would like to organize my apps, like on this pic:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=858418
I have that ROM, but cant find any place to make it like on the home screen !?
Maby its an app !??
(Small pic, of apps inside the folder/shurtcut) really like that feature.
seems to be a widget integrated in that rom.
take a look at your widget list. and if you still don't find it post the question in the rom thread ... good luck
Search the market for TagHome. Its a home screen replacement that allows you to organize your app drawer with different tags, really useful if you have lots of apps.
GO Launcher EX 2
Go launcher Ex available from the market for free offer iPhone like folders in the app draw and horizontal scrolling.
Thanks I have been using go launcher since its first introduction to the forums
The go launcher ex is great

Folders within app drawer.

Hello all. Currently I have a Droid x as a backup phone and have the gingerbread leak installed. There is a nice category feature that allows you to put the apps in your drawer into, well, categories. Are there any apps that allow you to do this?
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA Premium App
Some different homescreen apps allow you to put things into categories, but you'll lose HTC widgets or launcherpro widgets if you use that.
Go Launcher can do this, I think.
i remember an app called 'App Folders' on the incredible...maybe that will work for the thunderbolt too.
I use an app called Folder Organizer.
It allows you to tag apps, and then you an put a widget on your home screen(s) that is anything from an icon that will open up into a view of all apps tagged with a specific label, or even a 4x1, 4x2, 4x3 or 4x4 'window' with those apps.
It does a lot more, but I specifically use it for the nice folder organization (including allowing you to order the apps yourself) ability.
Ill give it a look. Thanks. I'm on adw ex and I really don't want to change from this launcher since its so nice. Ill check out that app though thanks.

Try taghome, you may like it also.
Go Launcher EX has support for folders and also hiding icons of applications you dont want. They also list applications by horizontal sliding list instead of vertical like in sense and stock.

Replacement app drawer (not launcher)

Hi.
Does anyone know an app drawer replacement app, that can run with your favourite launcher. I want to stick with Sense, yet be able to use a better app drawer that has more features such as folder organizing, etc. I know that the actual drawer that's launched from the Sense drawer button can't be modified, but I'm looking for an app that is launched seperately and offers similar functionality.
I don't think that is possible, sorry.
Folder organizer or app organizer. I use folder organizer myself. I have my middle button launch the main menu fo shortcut and it shows a nice popup of my labels ie folders. You basically assign labels to your apps and the labels show up like folders.

What is it that you want to do that folder organizer doesn't provide? It has options to display the items as a list or grid. You can have different sort options even within each folder, etc. You can change the background, folder icon, border color.

Well, do you know any good folder organizers? I was hoping for an organizer with a similar appearance to that of the drawer.
Try
1. Vlauncher
2. Maybe organised my files
3. Maybe group home
quickdesk beta!
The new Sense 2.1 will have a slightly better app drawer - no folders to my knowledge though
http://www.appbrain.com/app/swipepad-beta/mobi.conduction.swipepad.android
It has a tab with all apps on it. I think it's pretty horrid, but some people swear by it.
AppFolders. It's in the Marketplace (and its cooked into a few Sense ROM's, such as Magnolia 1.3.2).
Try eyelauncher. That is what you look for.
You can try Advance App Drawer Demo: tag and grid supported.

How to arrange apps in GO launcher drawer?

Dear All,
In default Note launcher I can arrange apps in the drawer as I like, I mean I can make 1 screen for system apps and 1 screen for games etc etc, by draging the app to what ever screen I want
While in Go Launcher drawer when I drag 1 app from 1 screen to another it automatically drag another app to fill the empty space
Is there any thing in settings to fix that? or is there another launcher can do that and also resize the installed widgets, those are my top priority
I think the only things you can do is sorting them by date installed, A-Z and most used apps. (Correct me if i'm wrong)
Hi
You can just make them into folders, you cannot have different screens as in default launcher, or sort them by alphabets.
ya I know that , you can sort them in different ways: Alphabetical, latest or earliest installed.
I do not want them to be in folders
I mean for example: I want to have 10 apps in 1 screen (system apps) but each time I drag 1 app to this screen the launcher will replace the empty space in the previous screen with another app
is there another launcher can do that and resize the installed widgets, those are my top priority

[4.0+][Launcher]HD 3D Launcher

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HHH6wndGVhg
This launcher is a different kind of launcher. It is different in a lot of areas. It has a different type of app drawer, a cool 3D contacts and dialer app built in, and as you can tell by the screen shots, a different way of showing apps on the home screen. Instead of showing traditional icons, the apps banner on the Play Store is shown (you can have traditional icons of you want). These banners can be edited on the home screen and resized to your liking. They can also be stretched vertically instead of the traditional horizontal-based widgets. Contacts can also be added to the home screen too. And the best part is, everything is in HD. The app is only 720kb to download and was last updated 5 days ago (2/11/13 if your reading this days after I posted). I am not the developer of this app, just sharing it. There is a free and pro version. Here is the Play Store Description. -
"HD 3D Launcher is a home screen replacement for Android 4.0+ focused on eye candy and productivity.
Main features :*
- Add high definition icon for your contacts*
- Add high definition icon for your applications, HD picture are downloaded from Android Market

P.S Your app dock can look however you want it to, even though it does not look like that in the pictures.
