Bug Description
When looking for apps and scopes in the Ubuntu store scope, it is hard for the user to find more apps and scopes than the "Highlight of the week", "Essentials" etc listed on the front page because there is no category buttons or category menu. It is not intuitive to have to hit a magnifying glass to search to find the categories of the apps and scopes.
I would suggest adding buttons on the bottom of the front page with every category, as well as "Installed apps", "Installed scopes" and "All apps" to make it easier for users to discover apps and scopes. (Just like in the desktop Ubuntu software centre / Gnome apps.)
I am on OTA-11 on the Bq M1 FHD with Norwegian localisation.

This is nothing to do with the scope itself. The departments UI was changed to be a part of the search UI. Moving to unity-scopes-shell.
