A shelf like OneaPlus launcher or Microsoft launcher

[singhgautam7]

Hello.

It would be nice to have a different screen/page(just like shelf) so that we can add widgets there. Adding number of widgets in the homescreen itself can be quite a hastle, as we also have favorite apps there.

And if this new screen/shelf is added, we can also store folders there, so that the main screen only have important stuffs like favourite apps.

Hope my explanation was clear.

I am not really a fan of widget pages. The only thing widgets have in common there is, well, they’re all widgets. So why should they be grouped together? Showing a weather widget below the clock and accessing your calendar agenda via a swipe / by tapping on a button makes more sense to me. Also, widgets often tend to use much ram. The concept of a widget list would kind of endorse user to cluster the page full of widgets. A swipe menu shows only a single widget at once, so not every widget has to be loaded into ram when you want to access one.
That’s why I’m planning to add the following integration:
You can place a single widget below the clock or replace it for showing weather and / or time, or an at a glance widget.
More widgets can be accessed by swiping right on an app.
Another idea would be that you can customize the google search button at the bottom right, so it can also launch a widget, e.g. your calendar.
