On the previous version 8.0.16 this did not happened at all.

Currently using Pixel 8 pro with the May 5th, 2024 update built number AP1A.240505.004

both my pixel 6 and pixel 8Ppro have small issues with nova.
( not so bad i need to use the power button, just short freezes and hiccups)

you would think google devices would be the most compatible, but cutting edge is more important to google then stability it seems

.16 is better for me also.

My pixel 8 pro has had the freezing issue on .17 and .16 . Usually have to hit the power button to unfreeze. A little frustrating, never had this issue on v7

Request for help!

I used to know how to create folders, add apps to folders on home screen (currently have two), but cannot seem to now. When I attempt to add an app to another to create a folder, the app overwrites the existing. Has the versions changed this functionality?

Thanks in advance.

When you create a folder, there is an option to start the first app in the folder with the swipe up or with the single click. In either case, the icon image for the folder will become the icon image of the first app

So long press the folder icon and select to edit the folder to whatever you want. ie by removing activate the first app, and the folder icon will revert to the old multi app icon

Try giving it permission to storage? It saves internally first and then you have to "Share" the saved file to another app eg. Solid Explorer.

No such permisson for storage.
Only these: calendar, contacts, location, music and audio, notifications, phone, photos and videos.
No storage or full access request.

Anyone have an issue where Nova folders on the home screen, or the app drawer, won't open after you connect/disconnect from an Android Auto session? I have to blindly run Nova Settings and 'restart' every time after using Android Auto

Is there a way to make this mod version install alongside the paid version? I've owned the paid version for as long as this has been about but I want on my tablet to run a version that has landscape settings, even if I have to launch it separately. I did email the dev to ask for different settings for landscape/portrait modes but said they had no plans but had been passed on to the team, I have tried app cloners but it's all just too messy and awkward to have to have multiple copies of an app to run landscape.

Thanks.

No such problem creating backups . . . haven't encountered any sort of crash/freeze, either — might be some kind of cross-compatibility issue specific to your ROM or maybe even device. ;)
