Apparently a "lot" of people wanted the single folder structure, a well organized folder system is "to hard to navigate", go figure.

You can set up your own folders and organize things as you please which is what I'll do, if and when I get Belle.

Downside is updates will probably undo your folders so it may pay to wait a while for the dust to settle.

Re: N8 menu no folders like on anna

I saw this coming! Nokia was just trying to copy android and iOS with this new menu structure. I am one of those that were perfectly happy with it. j444lh just be aware that you can't create a folder within a folder (that's what i hear anyway) I haven't tried I'm going to live with it as is.

They should consider adding a setting to switch between the old structure and this "simple one"

The whole messages thing is a mess also but I can understand why they did it the way they did. It makes sense for someone to believe that when the user opens messages they want to see their inbox (conversations); it's the same logic as email.

Re: N8 menu no folders like on anna

Yes I miss the folders too - especially music & games which had nice little icons on it.  You can still create a generic yellow folder or pay for the folder decorating app but that seems so pointless as it used to exist.

 

According to this article, these folders are definitely gone:

Interestingly, in this article there is a pic of Belle w/ the Games folder shortcut so maybe I have not figured it out yet:
