So, I've been playing around with how best to organize and present my apps and so far this is what I do: I use Folder Organizer to categorize apps into different folders, and then I put links to those folders on my home screen. I love the Folder Organizer lets me also add scrollable widgets to my launcher (currently Go Launcher) to display the contents of each folder without having to click to open it.
However, Go Launcher also seems to have their own folder system for their app drawer. And Android has their own folder system for plutting apps and shortcuts and such on launcher screens. I thought I also heard mention of ICS doing something new with folders, but I'm not sure about that.
So with these various ways of handing folders/grouping/categorizing apps, I'm wondering what the optimal method is. One reason I use Folder Organizer (other than the features I mentioned above) is because it's device-independent. I can backup my folders and then restore them if I switch phones or lose/break my current one. I suppose that Go-Launcher might have a similar method to back up your folders, but then I'd be stuck with Go Launcher and if I ever wanted to switch to a different launcher, or go back to Sense, I would have to start from scratch.
Anyway, if any of you have a different way of organizing apps that have advantages to Folder Organizer that I'm just missing, I'd love to know what you're using and why.
