Great how people appreciate feedback so much on nostr! Thanks about the navbar update, a double one seems neede then indeed. And it's still early for NIP-89 but in my mind you could be a great guiding force. For app categorization I meant that in a personal way. As in, the user makes his own folders of apps (Bitcoin Wallets, Social, Writing, ...) as is very commonly done on mobile home screens already. Given the gazzillion new apps every week, this will be needed, for me at least ;) "a dashboard of most interesting things happening across the apps" is the goal indeed, but if I take inspiration again from android and iOS this might maybe be better handled by an open standard for widgets? Of which you can build the first ones. That way the user can build a custom nostr dashboard. (And someone like me that is fed up with seeing all the same Trending stuff, all the time, everywhere and doesn't think it has that much signal can just avoid all that). (I'll maybe draw some stuff up later that came to mind)

Thorough feedback is worth appreciation! Yeah we'll keep pushing nip-89 forward w/ nostrapp.link and the Spring browser. App reviews coming soon btw. App categorization/folders for the homescreen is a great idea, thank you! Re. an open standard for widgets - our plan is to make homescreen completely customizable with ability to setup any number of 'feeds' (essentially relay+filters), with a nip for a 'feed' representation. Widgets are an even more general concept, will keep it in mind for the future. What kind of widgets would you find valuable, aside from various feeds? Do you think nostr.band's 'trending' aren't much of a signal? Do you think they have some visible flaws, or is it just that they're 'everywhere' and thus annoying? Will be very grateful for any graphical input from you!
