...I thought we all just stopped having apps the Home Screen when we could put them in the library and unclutter everything.
That's what I do. My home screen only has the time and weather on it. The next two screens have folders.
Thank you, I thought I was nuts for a minute.
I mean you still could be. I'm not a professional.
Yeah I have almost no apps on my Home Screen. Just one page of widgets, and 3 pinned to the bottom.
Otherwise if I want an app I just use spotlight. Quick swipe down and the first letter or 2 of any app and I’m in. I almost never touch the App Library.
This prob comes from using spotlight so much on Mac as well though.
I hadn’t considered the connection, but now that you mention it I use Spotlight pretty much exclusively on my Mac too. Hopefully they don’t mess that feature up in the future or I’m going to have to learn how to manually organize things.
You've just moved the same problem somewhere else if you do that.
I run a "main" home screen with Clock, Calendar, Weather and Alerts, then the next one is apps I commonly use, separated into folders, tools, photography, entertainment, comms, MFA, and then the next screen is my email.
Eh, the default organization they put on the App Library doesn't offend me. I did add a widget for Reminders and another for Music though.
lol yeah I literally use Spotlight for everything, it’s way faster the majority of the time.
