Samsung has a lot of hidden settings on the different screens of our mobile that sometimes we do not discover how simple our lives can be by not investigating. One of the examples that best reflects this is the possibility of organizing the apps in the app drawer in different ways: According to their use or alphabetically .
Those of us who are used to dealing with applications at all hours are passionate about order and, by default, Samsung’s app drawer can seem a bit chaotic. For many, the easiest way to have organized access to apps is to do it alphabetically, being on the first page those whose names begin with the first letters of the alphabet, and on the last ones, the ones started by x, and or z.
Different Android OEMs organize the app drawer in different ways, but almost all of them allow you to customize, at least a little, their display to suit your preferences. That’s how fast and easy it is to organize the application drawer on your Samsung Galaxy phone so that all applications are organized in alphabetical order .
How to alphabetize Samsung’s app drawer
Although the home screens do not refer to it, all Samsung mobiles hide an app drawer that appears before us at the moment that, from the aforementioned home screen, we slide our finger up from the bottom of the phone. This opens the list of all apps installed on the phone. To organize them alphabetically, you must press the three-button menu at the top right of the search field.
Now all you need to do is click on the first option ” Sort ” and in the dropdown that opens, check the “Alphabetical order” option. This will change the screen of apps and they will appear more comfortable.
If at any time you want to organize them in a different way and show the apps as they were before, simply repeat this process and select the ” Custom order ” option. This will “unpin” the apps so that you can drag and drop them yourself in the order you want, such as from the home screen. Thus, for example, it is possible to group the most used applications at the top of the first page of the application drawer, or by colors, or by type of app.
