Catorise  by  Andrew FleggDesktop category

Put applications menu into sensible categories.

Catorise puts the applications menu into a series of sections, matching those used in the Applications Manager. As packages are installed and removed, the menu is kept up-to-date. To revert to the Nokia-supplied default, simply uninstall.


Catorise for Nokia N900 / Maemo 5


Finally an attempt to somehow organize the Applications menu! With the number of applications available for Maemo quickly growing, a solution to somehow manage and organize installed applications becomes a REAL MUST! Or else we'll soon have to spend a minute or two on just looking for an icon of an application we want to run on that long list of completely unordered icons. The N900 is actually the first Nokia smartphone for years (if not a decade) that does not provide any Application menu management options (like creating new folders, changing the order of applications, etc).

Catorise finally changes it making it possible to have icons of installed applications divided into categories.

Hopefully the next step will be to make it possible for users to create custom folders/categories or rename the existing ones and freely move icons between categories of one's choice, just like on virtually all other smartphone platforms..... Any takers? The recently started MyMenu project seems to be on the right track.

Great! Way better overview than the standard menu layout. moving apps in other categories would be nice, but almost all of my apps are automatically categorised in a sensible way... [Rate: 9/10]

Made my desktop eat the battery. Constantly between 12-17% CPU (conflict?), and for this I uninstalled. As others say: you should be able to move apps between categories. [Rate: 5/10]

A "must-have" application. Unfortunately some applications come with wrong or at least objectionable categories. An upgrade to change the icon categories from the UI will be super! [Rate: 9/10]
