Apps for iPhone: How to Organize Them

Sure, you’re happy that the App Store allows you to choose from more than 350,000 games and apps for iPhone. The problem is that these apps can soon become clutter on your Home screen. It’s a good thing then that you can now use the Folders feature. This feature allows you to organize your apps, remove clutter from your iPhone’s Home screen, and run your apps with just a few taps on the screen.
Creating a Folder

This is very easy to do. Just touch one app until you see it wiggle, drag it on top of another app and then let go. That’s it! You may repeat this process with all your other apps, grouping them according to category. For example, all games can be placed in one folder, news apps in a separate folder, all productivity apps in one more folder, and so on.

Naming the Folders

This may be one of the best parts of this feature. Your iPhone will automatically assign a name to each folder according to what apps are in it: News, Games, Sports, etc. You, of course, have the option to change the names if you want. What’s important is that your apps for iPhone are now a lot easier to manage.

Now, you can download apps for iPhone without worrying about Home screen clutter. What’s even better news is that you can save as much as 180 folders, which in turn can hold up to 12 apps. This means that you can download a maximum of 2160 well-organized apps at any given time!
