Nokia has added a new app folder interface in its new Lumia handsets, which will allow Windows Phone users to stack apps and settings into a folder tile on the Start-up Screen.

The new feature is part of Nokia's Lumia Black software that is being rolled out to Lumia 1020 and Lumia 925 devices, the Verge reports.

The company said that other Lumia models will be updated in the coming few weeks.

Nokia's Lumia Black software also includes Microsoft's Windows Phone 8 Update 3 with rotation lock, custom tones for messages, emails, and reminders, and a new Driving Mode feature that's designed to limit notifications, while the user is driving.

Bluetooth 4.0 support and improvements to the Nokia Camera, including RAW support for the Lumia 1020 and 1520, has also been included with Lumia Black, the report added.
