feat(#103): make hidden apps findable with search #130
Conversation

@JuanJakobo I am sorry for the delayed response here! Could you help me understand the rational behind this feature? It seems like if you want to see all the apps in the drawer, then just do not hide any of the apps via the "Visible Apps" menu. If you also want to see the pinned "home apps" in the drawer, these are hidden by default when you pin them to the home screen. But, you can actually use the "Visible Apps" menu and re-check them so they are displayed in the drawer again (and are searchable). But, maybe I am missing what you are trying to do here! 🤔 |

Hi, Hope that makes it clear. 😄 |

I wholeheartedly agree with JuanJakobo. On the pixel 6a, the drawer can fit about 19 apps which is good. But excluding the apps on the home screen, I have maybe25 apps that should be in the drawer. What happens then is the drawer can be scrolled. This is, for me, a small irritation sometimes as I use my phone mostly with muscle memory and I can't for the apps in the drawer as with the scrolling feature, apps are not always at the location on the screen. The solution for this is to be able to search all apps with the search function. It keeps the drawer organized and clean while still allowing access to all apps, including those I decided not to put in the drawer for the reason mentionned above. I love this app, thank you. |

Many thanks @JuanJakobo for this functionality! I had to tweak things a bit to get this into the latest codebase, but I think that made things even more streamlined from a code perspective (functionality should still be the same)!

Hi jkuester,
Thanks for the great app!
I created a method to enable in the settings the option to search all apps (shown and hidden).
Hope it is the correct way to do it.
