iPhone OS 4 folders, with a lot new features

Some people mailed me to show a bit how the folders work on iPhone OS 4.

Its actually quite simple to work with, we already know how to move the icons between pages. To create a folder you just have to drag your icon upon another icon and it will automatically create a folder with the nearest matching category name of the application.

Lets say you move two game icons upon each other the name of the folder would be Games.

Now another nice feature is the notification system.
When a application has a notification pending you will see a attention sign on the folder icon. When you tap the folder you will see the opened folder with the application (or multiple applications) having a notification.

In the following image you see how a notification looks:

In this image I tapped on the folder so I can see which application has a notification. The AppStore in my case.

After I opened the AppStore and gave the command to upgrade the applications you will be returned to the springboard.
You can see the updating progress on the folder and if you tap it you can see it of the application.

As you can see, it is quite simple to work with.

As soon as the new iPhone OS 4 will be released I hope you will enjoy this feature too.
