Folding

I really like Niagara but the only real downside is that support for folding devices is half arsed, which has been an issue for me since I moved to a Fold 7 last year. It's neither bad or particularly good. I'd like dedicated pages for the outer and inner screen but instead you simply get the same apps split into two columns when you open the device and use the inner screen. This is limiting for me and a waste of the additional screen estate given that I limit the number of apps on the outer screen so it fits without having to scroll, but as a result this leaves a large space on the inner screen when opened which can support more icons. The only way of fully using the inner screen is to have a handful of apps not visible on the outer display without scrolling up.

I asked about this previously and I was told by the dev they'd look into it but that was months back and nothing has changed. It's a shame because, without this, I can't justify the renewal when my subscription is up and I imagine it would be a quick development and a fair few other launchers have incorporated this change (Smart Launcher, Total Launcher etc). Folding devices are now also becoming more and more popular so it is in the developer's interests I'd imagine.

Cheers for listening.

I love Home Up, but ever since I started using it, the ability to read a notification through a long press on an icon with a notification flag doesn't work when DIY mode is enabled. I've reported it as a bug months back as I'm sure many other have.
