November 28, 2009 by
Available In: Cydia       Price: Free  

##ICON_NAME## Categories, an application that allows you to organize the applications on your SpringBoard into folders, has been updated to version 2.8. The update makes quite a few back-end changes to the app. Check out the complete change log below.

Note: We did have an issue updating Categories on one of our test iPhones. It took all the apps out of the folders and made the folders unable to be deleted. However, I updated Categories on my personal iPhone and I had no issues at all… it kept the folders and all the apps inside them.

Categories Updates – Internal Rewrite of App

November 11, 2009 by
Available In: Cydia       Price: Free  

##ICON_NAME## Yesterday, Categories, an application that allows you to organize the applications on your SpringBoard into folders, received a few updates. The update to version 2.27 was the major one which basically includes an internal rewrite of the app making the app perform much quicker. Updates 2.27.1 and 2.27.2 were basically bug fixes. See the complete change log below.

After updating, I definitely notice an improvement in the app’s functionality. It is MUCH quicker and just feels less bulky. So far, I have not had one crash… which is great! Normally, Categories will crash a few times on me. I also love that when adding an application to a folder, the apps are now in correct Alphabetical order! It makes adding applications so much faster and easier!

Overall, a great update… you will want to be sure to update to update this one. You can get Categories via the BigBoss source.

CategoriesSB – Integrate Categories App into SpringBoard

October 23, 2009 by
Available In: Cydia       Price: $0.99  

##ICON_NAME## Yesterday, CategoriesSB was released in Cydia. CategoriesSB is an application that integrates Categories into the SpringBoard. This is done by loading the folders you create using Categories directly on the SpringBoard instead of loading them as a separate app. What this basically does is allows the folders that you create with Categories to load much faster. This also allows for things like badge support since the folder is directly on the SpringBoard.

You will still need to use the actual Categories application to create, edit, delete and rearrange the applications in the folders you create. You can get CategoriesSB via the BigBoss source. [Read more…]

Categories and SBSettings Updated

June 21, 2009 by

Categories 2.23-1:
    • Added some debugging info for some crashing some folks are seeing
    • Added some permission changes to some folders to “guess” what some crashing may be as a long shot [Read more…]

Lost Apps After Upgrading Firmware When Using Categories – Fixed

March 24, 2009 by

CategoriesWhen recently upgrading to firmware 3.0 on my iPhone, I lost all of my apps that were in folders using the application Categories. Categories lets you make an icon on your home screen that opens up to more icons allowing you to organize your springboard. I don’t know all the coding details but I know when adding something to a category it makes it disappear from the home screen. This gets stuck that way when going straight to a new firmware. I tried reinstalling the app but the App Store shows it’s installed. I also removed it from iTunes, resynced and reinstalled and it would show up but disappear after rebooting.

March 1, 2008 by

Categories Version 1.72 of Categories does not have any visual changes but instead a bug fix. According to BigBoss, this is what was fixed, “fixes issue where camera and photos icon would be the default question mark icon when SummerBoard theme did not include camera or photo icons or the SummerBoard theme option was disabled in the Categories gui config.

1.1.3 + Customize + Categories = ???

February 13, 2008 by

I never could get Categories to install on 1.

1.3 so I figured it wasn’t ready for 1.1.3. I later read in it’s more info in Installer that it was updated. An update came and when I tried it, my iPhone bricked. Now, after jailbreaking 1.1.3 again I noticed that whichever was installed first (Customize or Categories) is the app that works.

Categories Update 1.60 & 1.62-1

February 2, 2008 by

Categories There have been some recent updates to Categories not only have they made the app compatible with 1.1.3!!, there are a few new features. You will find two new options in the Configuration settings, the ability to turn on/off Hide Title and Hide Icon Titles. If you turn on Hide Title…when you go into one of the categories you created it will no longer display the “Title” or menu bar that displays the Title of that category, the Screen option and the Edit option. I’m not sure why you would want to hide the title but, I’m sure there is a reason! If you turn on Hide Icon Titles and then you go into a category you have created…it will only show the icons of the apps in that category and will not display the app’s title (see screenshots below). There are also some new icons that you can choose from when creating a new category!! [Read more…]

New App – Categories

January 9, 2008 by

Categories Categories allows you to put the apps on your SpringBoard into categories so that your SpringBoard is more organized. When you first open the app you get a pop up screening telling you how to get started. To begin…tap the Add button in the upper right corner. This will open a little window where you can enter the title of the category you would like to create, for example – games. You can tap Add to add the category or you can tap Cancel to go back to the main menu without adding a new category. If you decide to add a category it will then bring you to a page where you can select the icon for that category…there is a pretty good selection…just scroll down to see them all (this is like SUPER fun…it makes me want to make a ton of categories just so I can choose the icon!) Once you have found the icon you would like to use [Read more…]
