More customization options in settings
Miyagi
Would love to see a few more customization options in settings in the future, that could modify small parts of the UI & feeds etc to our own personal touch, mostly QoL stuff.
- Here are some suggestions:
- Custom app categories in "app" section: ability to create app categories, resize them, name them, put specific apps in these categories, re-arrange order of categories (similar to how other launchers have done it in the past)
- Renaming & re-ordering tabs: Change the order and name of the tabs
- Choose which tab should be default: Home, movies, series or apps
- Ability to resize the feeds (and/or targeted feed) in "Home" section: to be able to see 2 or even 3 feeds at the same time without scrolling up and down
- Ability to add wallpaper to the other tabs, if desired
- Be able to change pinned apps in top left corner to either show "favorites" or "most used" apps
- Future ability in "Home" section, when movie or series are targeted, option to: "Play on Netflix", "Play on Plex", "Play on Stremio" etc.. depending on installed apps, or set an app as default player
- Ability to set location manually (where to show weather from)
If anyone else has any ideas, feel free to post them in the thread!

Miyagi For the sake of being able to track each request's popularity individually, I will probably break this request up into individual requests sometime this weekend.
That being said, I'm not sure I'm quite understanding parts of point 1 and 4:
1) What do you mean by resizing app categories? Do you mean that the app icons in some categories would be bigger than in other categories?
4) Similarly, what is meant by resizing feeds, and to see two or 3 feeds at the same time?

Hello! many of these suggestions are features I've appreciated from other launchers, so would love to see it here aswell
I can break them up a bit if you want :-)
Edit: I made my top customization requests from this list into their own requests! Just think maybe not many people will see them, now that there are so many requests already.
1) I am not sure how to explain this any further, but in Dispatch in "Apps" you have two categories: apps and games. It would be nice to be able to re-order these (which one shows first), and make more categories, for example a third one "Favorites" etc. Maybe resize the "cards" (app icons) in this category, and choose what apps you want to have in this category, and how these apps are ordered (alphabetically, last used, manually etc). Also be able to hide apps from a category. Basically how many "inofficial" launchers have done it in the past. I dont know how to explain more, sorry.
4) By this I mean the feeds that show in "Home". In my embedded picture, I have marked what I mean by "feed". Let's say the "What's new"-feed for example, resizing these so that we can see multiple "feeds" without scrolling up and down. I would like to be able to see "Recommended for you", "What's new" etc in just a single "window". Personally, I like being able to see my YouTube and Stremio feed at the same time. Once again I don't know how to explain any better, but I hope you understand what I mean.
