I've been crushed to confusion in the finding of
where-to-get / where-to-tap those apps on the iPhone. This extra simple task to do before is seemingly deteriorating like a Pentium processor wantonly needing to upgrade for the Core i7.
The fact that
groups has been established since the advent of iOS 4.2.1, it made way for a comfy arrangement of apps based on your liking and choice, infact you could even rename the group at your own freedom. However, as the apps grew in number, i am most of the time lost in track where did it go, or where did i group it up to? The dilemma seeps in, spending time in finding out where it's located.
Okay, don't bother telling me "Don't u use the spotlight search?". iDo! but i still would want to know the path where the app is specifically located, just incase i wanna delete it, it'd be handy for me to just hold & tap the "x", without going thru iTunes by deleting 'em one by one.
Then, it dawned on me suddenly while navigating thru iTunes that each app has its own category.
- Reference
- Productivity
- Social
- News
- Utilities
- Education
- Healthcare & Fitness
- Books
- Business
- Travel
- Entertainment
- Lifestyle
- Games
- Music
- & more...
So i painstakingly re-organized my apps for good based on their own category. Note that i did this while my phone is connected to iTunes, it was easier to identify which apps belong to certain category; as the Apps tab in iTunes could be sorted, bingo! i just grouped those apps that belong to each other. And so, it looks like this way:
Making way for easy accessing my favorite apps, i dropped i dropped them in the last page. Those apps that are needed to get a speedo flick instantly were outed from their groups, leaving them floating on my final page.
Now, life is easier. I don't have to undergo like a basset hound dog searching for those lil apps. What about you? Do u have a personal preference in organizing your apps?
