Do you fill your screen with apps or leave unfilled areas

I fill the first screen with my most used apps and then the next screen has the less used apps grouped in folders. I prefer to have that first screen full so that the apps that I use the very most are in the bottom row. That gives me my eight most used apps within the first two rows on the bottom.

My 1st screen is just as it is right out of the box as well as the pre installed apps on page 2. All downloaded apps are alphabetized and not put in folders. I don't use many apps and my goal is typically to have the stock page 1 and only one page of downloaded apps. Right now though, I've got 5 downloaded apps on a 3rd page...

I tend to move things around and reorganize from time to time. This is where everything is for the time being though.

What's the point of an unfilled area? I currently have 235 downloaded apps on my 3rd screen. The 1st screen is Spotlight. The 2nd is blank.

The 3rd has 235 mostly in folders for organization.

My screens are full except for the last one. I need to find 8 more apps to fill it. I don't like to use folders.

I rather like the used apps on Page 1 and folders on Page 2 idea. Surprised I hadn't thought to do that on my own. Looks like I'll be doing some reorganizing this weekend.

I keep my first screen empty so i can see my wallpaper. Second screen has my most used in folders and the third screen for seldom used.

Hmm, that's kind of a good point. I guess I never thought about it myself. My answer would have been that I only have a couple rows on each screen to see the wallpaper, but of course you still have stuff obscuring it partly. I guess it never dawned on me to just leave one page totally blank.

My first screen is blank, second screen has apps grouped into categories. In the doc I have the 4 most used apps. I have a white screen and would love to be able to change the color of the apps so it would appear that they are floating in space but alas...I am stuck with four ugly blobs of color on my otherwise clean screen. But aside from that I do love my iPhone....

Some of mine are in folders and some loose on their own. The first page has the most frequently used and only about half of the second screen has icons. I do wish there was more flexibility to put icons anywhere you want on your screen instead of having them snap into the next available place.

Shame on you for leaving your apps all disheveled. As long as you don't have Apple made apps mixed in with third party made apps you're ahead of my wife. Her homescreen makes me sick to my stomach.
