Find new installed apps

Sometimes ia hard to find new installed apps, specially if name is tricky. It will be nice if we could see the newest installed apps. Maybe something like this:

  • Slide up and app list appears
  • With app list active swipe left or right to show app list ordered by installed date.

It will be better if an ellipsis button is added on the top right corner of the app list, tapping on it will give users three options to select from:

  1. Alphabetical Order (A-Z)
  2. Based On Installation Time (New-Old)
  3. Based On Usage (Most Used-Less Used)

show new app on top list enough. -after first click restore a-z position.

Like in Android it is dynamic the more you use the app it will automatically come upwards this can be a better alternative. ❤️💙

@solankybasant Bad idea. That would make a mess of it.

@JacksonCampbell99 won't it save time🤔

@solankybasant For most people, their most used apps will be social apps. We don't want those apps to be too easy to access.

@tanujnotes Many people may prioritize social apps as their most frequently used, but it's important to strike a balance between accessibility and productivity. Restricting easy access to these apps can help individuals maintain focus and prioritize their tasks effectively. Btw thanks for your response 😄

@solankybasant Dynamic order would make the order change all the time, which would make it hard to find anything without searching. @Amorphous404 has a great idea with A-Z or new to old or based on usage time, maybe similar to what you're thinking but at least with a stable influence as opposed to a dynamic AI thing.

Yeah that is also fine 👍🏻

I came here to open this feature request but I see I'm not the only one with that problem. I love the idea where the user can choose between A-Z order, usage or installation date. Would having categories be too much? It works certainly help me find apps that I don't know the name of

maybe dev think we can memorize more than 200 apps using list view :) lol

Anyone who is actively using 100+ apps should use a launcher that shows app icons. Olauncher is not well suited for them.

It's not about actively using applications because icons are also forgotten
