Extended folders? - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was wondering if there is a way to extend the capacity of apps in a folder. I need more than 16 apps per folder. I'd prefer if there us a way to do this without rooting, however all ways are accepted thanks.

Good question. I wanna know this as well

Download Nova Launcher or Apex Launcher. They're both free on the PlayStore

The Nova Launcher worked like a charm! Thanks a lot! I think it makes my Nexus 4 even faster but that is just me

Slow Nexus 7

Hi I got my Nexus 7 on 29 sep. A few days ago I started using Apex Launcher as its a great alternative to the default launcher. Anyways, yesterday I was just getting some general lag on everything, I was wondering if it had anything to do with Apex, I use a custom drawer interface and I only have one page. I'm new to this forum and it would be great if you replied. Thanks, Charlie

I have to admit, I used to use Apex on my S2 and found it a bit laggy at times. I decided to remove it and then everything was fine. Can't prove it but removing it worked for me. I haven't used another Launcher on a device since.

Sorry, lost the xda app and thanks anyways, apex WAS great and has amazing potential but just crashes a lot

Someone will have to modify the launcher.apk
I'm actually surprised that it hasn't been done yet.

Welcome to XDA! Best way and stay stock is to use an alternate launcher...search Play for Nova and Apex Launchers.

air command
Sorry for the noob question, I'm waiting to get my note 3. The air command from the stylus is not launcher related right? If i change launcher they are still there?
Thanks!

No it's not related to Launcher. Will work with Nova as well as any other Launcher.

It's all personal preference really, depends on how you want your screens set up, how you want the device to look etc. (PS Best threads are against XDA rules, so expect this to be closed)
Oh right ok i didnt know so do i need to be rooted to change launcher

Nope, can grab Nova /Apex etc from the playstore and test them out, premium features you have to pay for, but in regards to Nova it's superb I've used it for a long time now.
