Got a great write on gizmodo as app of the week selection:

I'm confused about AppButler...do they think Apple will allow a 3rd-party App launcher? Is that what it is? Any tutorials ?

It doesnt look like an app launcher to me :confused:

All it does is, it adds these webpage icons to your iPhone to make it look a little organized but at the cost of precious icon space. We want more space for icons. Cant afford to waste whatever little apple provides us with.

Why a '6' for games? Is it supposed to be a 'G?'
So, if I understand correctly, it is an app that creates dummy icons for organizational purposes?

Exactly. It seems they are using an upside down g.

Well thats silly.
I guess the idea is good. Creative at least. I wouldnt use it, but im sure someone will find it useful.

According to their website in the OP. The 6 is being used denote page number.

Well its on the 9th page ;) Check the dots. Thats why I figured it wasnt a page number.

It can be just a example.

EDIT: Meant 8th page, check dots, but whatever. Eye sight is bad today I guess.

I know it could be an example, and in all fairness Jeremy was right, but if you're going to promote an app, do a little quality control of your ads.
