How to Organize Your iPhone Apps in Folders

Lots of Apps
Take a look at your iPhone. Now try and find your Voice Memos.
Has it taken you more than two minutes? Are you flipping through screen after screen of apps you don’t remember using?
You may very well be an app hoarder. Don’t worry, I’m here to help.


This is how you create folders for your apps so the ones you don’t use aren’t clogging up your home screen:
1. Choose an app that you would like to group into a folder.
2. Press your finger on the icon until all the apps on the screen begin to twitch. You should see little “x” bubbles on the upper-left hand corner of each app icon. Don’t touch those unless you want to delete something.
3. Keep your finger pressed on the app you’d like to file away and move the icon toward whatever else you’d like to group it with. Hold it on top of the app you want to group it with until a new screen automatically pops up.
4. The new screen will  populate a title for the grouping — in this instance, it has deemed the two apps to be very generically “Social.” If you want to spice up the name of the folder, tap the “x” bubble on the right and type in whatever moniker you prefer (“Chats!”).
5. You can exit the new folder by clicking on the home button. Repeat the hold, drag, and drop until you’ve put all the apps you want into that folder.

And now? No more pages and pages of apps you’ll never use. Dang, iPhone: You clean up good.
