Restricted by the 4×4 home screen you are having now?

Not anymore! Multicon Widget is a perfect solution for you! It allows you to add more applications, shortcuts and others such as Airplane Mode On/Off, Auto Syn On/Off, Wi-Fi On/Off, etc!

1x1, 1x2, 1x3, 1x4 (Left to Right)

I was looking for 1x1, 2x1, 3x1 and 4x1 options, strangely only the opposite are there.

I believe you can manually change the Columns and Rows in the Edit Mode.

Yes, but it still won't allow 2x1, 3x1 and so on, so I have to add multiple 1x1, but I don't know if multiple 1x1 don't take more resources than single 4x1?

Funny, why at all is it not allowing portrait 4x1 widget?

Hi

Nice widget!! Good work!
One question: Is there a possibility to change the icons of the chosen programs within the widget? That way I could customize the look of every icon.

Thanks in advance for your reply.

Installed 15 minutes ago. Don't know how I did without it!

Wish I could disable workspaces in Sense now, as two have become superfluous.

Hey... Nice app...

But I don´t want to have 4*4 but besides don´t want to have 8*8... I want to have 6*6 on my screen... can you make that? Maybe in the next release of Multicon? Would be so nice...

Not really...but I like having more space on the homescreen...Density cuts the text on the ICON so this app remedies that problem...

EDIT:
Is there a way to change stock icons for wifi/airplane/brightness/etc toggles? Thanks again for this great apps. I love it.

Excellent app. Thank you very much.
Only request I would have is for more horizontal configurations by "default" (instead of stinging along a bunch of 1x1). Anyhow, very nice app, freed up a ton of space and improved the appearance of my home screens.

I agree with the horizontal configuration. One other thing I think would be nice is if the icon you select would highlight like the regular icons.

To "" - Awesome application. Everything is OK, but.. Can add icons automaticly, not one by one? I have more than 100 little icons on just one screen, and add every one of them is much time eating Samo function, that add all installed applications would be very high rated.
