I keep things simple and use Spotlight for most navigation.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

A fellow spotlight navigator! There are dozens of us!

I like keeping a little extra space

Do you live near a coast? The weather is so nice

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

US west coast. Generally pretty temperate climate.

I try to keep all interactive UI elements at the bottom so I can use the phone with one hand more easily.

Mine is very close to yours.

I just recommend this app to my mother in law in lieu of one of those morbidly expansive camera bird feeders.

I have been looking at building one with a Pi for my wife.

That’s such a good ideal—good luck!

Quite a lot of fediverse going on there^^

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I’ve got 2.5 pages of apps in that folder 😅

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Hope Avelon is in there! It’s my favorite app so far!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

It is! I don’t use it as often, Memmy is still my favourite, but I check in on it from time to time and it’s progressing quite well

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (2 children)

What’s the treble clef app?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Think it’s the Apple Music Classical app.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Yep that’s the one

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (3 children)

Apple Music Classical. The best way to stream classical music now that Primephonic is gone

I like to keep everything on one page. Also, I am an app hoarder. Each folder has multiple pages, grouped together. Some icons are shortcuts which bring up a list of related apps. It looks like a lot but it works for me lol.

Mine is boring apart from the cute doggy. The doggy himself is less boring when not two dimensional.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

That isufcu icon is a real gem

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Haha, it’s definitely an eye catcher ^^

Homescreen, what for?

Most used apps grouped in dock

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I have a shortcut to change the wallpaper every day to whatever is the Bing image. Keeps it fresh.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I always tried to have my most used apps up front and upgraded to folders, once that was a thing. So far it still works for me, all else goes via spotlight. Rarely do I see page two. 🙃

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Can you share your wallpaper please

I keep all my third-party apps on page two. That's also the page I activate before locking the phone.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I like to keep space at the bottom, and only 3 buttons in the dock. Most-used, quick access in the bottom right.
