There’s an app for that. And that. And that. All the apps we download onto our phones can quickly become a daunting and never-ending list that we might rather not navigate. Thankfully, Samsung has provided us some relief. Here’s how to add and customize app folders on your Samsung Galaxy S6:
On your home screen
- On any page of your home screen, make sure there are at least two of the apps you want in a folder together.
- To add apps to your home screen, open the App Drawer, tap and hold the app you want, then drag to the home page you want.
- Drag and drop an icon onto another icon until a square highlight behind the icon appears.
- A folder is created containing the two apps. At this point you’re prompted to name the folder, and you can choose to either give it a name or leave it blank.
- You can customize the background color of the folder by tapping the Palette icon to the right of the folder name inside the folder.
- To add more apps to the folder, simply tap and hold then drag the app’s icon on top of the folder.
In your App Drawer
- Open the App Drawer and tap Edit at the top right.
- Drag one app icon onto another until you see a square highlight behind both, then drop. Customize the folder in the same way as home page folders.
- Tap outside the folder to close, then drag as many apps as you like into the folder.
- Once finished, tap Done at the top of the screen.
