@marxian: Meefolders' own icon does not appear on the grid for adding icons to folders. I think it should, though, as users might want to add it to a subfolder...

@marxian: one or two widgets are now starting to show up as icons/apps. For example there is the widget that shows the device's IP address, and there is a hack that makes the calendar app show the current day of the month instead of "21" all the time. Does/will Meefolders support these kinds of dynamically updated icons?

Feature request: when clicking the back button or swiping a folder app away, there is no delay at all. In fact a very slight delay (or other transition effect) would be good and would add to the UI smoothness.

Adding more just increases startup time.

I have found some bugs with the latest version:
Some icons are not shown. E.g. 5inarow from Nokia store has no icon, just the caption.
Umlauts don't work. E.g., if you create a folder "Büro", you'll get a weird question mark character instead of the ü.
Edit: that folder wouldn't open even.

Although the issue is apparent when launching an app from inside a folder; the folder screen disappears "too quickly" and in a way it is not apparent that it is actually launching the app; the 'just disappearing immediately' behaviour connotes a lack of feedback.
You might consider it a minor issue, but it is one, I think.
