Default Creating Folders

Is it just me or is it nearly impossible to drag one icon on top of another to create a folder? It usually takes me 10-15 tries to create the folder. Every other time the icon just jumps out of the way.

It's because you're dragging them in slowly and the new launcher moves things around. Drag it on top quickly and it'll open up you'll see.

Or just long click and create a folder and add any app you want all at once. I do like the N7 folders, no need for a folder organizer app anymore.

I had read that somewhere else as well. To create a folder, you need to drag one icon over another fast. That's what I've been doing, and I've had no issues creating folders.
