It just occurred to me from using an android as well that there doesn't seem to be a way to automatically put apps in alphabetical order on iOS. Is this the case or am I missing something?
After more than 15 years covering everything Apple, it’s with a heavy heart we announce that we will no longer be publishing new content on iMore and the iMore forums will be closing as of November 1st, 2024.
Automatically? No.
You can drag/drop them in order, which is what I do. My main screen is my most used apps in an order by category, so social together, utilities together, etc. Second screen is all folders, in ABC order, with the apps inside them in ABC order. Doesn't take long to move them around.![]()
Well damn that sucks. Something android does better than ios I guess. It also annoys the hell out of me that on iOS I can't just put apps on the bottom row of a screen. That in order for there to be apps on the bottom row the other rows have to be completely filled. It's annoying.
Thanks for confirming my suspicions though
That it is better or not is subjective. I don't personally care for alphabetical order, instead of what I use the most. I like having Facebook right next to Facebook Messenger and Facebook Groups, alphabetically, they would be separated since, those apps are labeled "Messenger" and "Groups". To each their own.

Maybe so but at least on Android you have the option to choose
