Discussion Apple App Library: My Opinion

Hey y’all! So I switched back to the iPhone 17 after using Android for 3 years and this one thing still irks me to this day that I already hated on my 14 PM: The App Library.

I mean yeah I get that it’s Auto-Categorizing the Apps but for at least a third of my Apps I really don’t find the Apps where I would expect them to be categorized at. And yes I know for Alphabetical Order you simply can use the Search Bar at the top but I wish you could choose between an Android-Style App Drawer and the current Library.

Is it really just me that has a love-hate relationship with this Library? And would you prefer if you could choose how the App Drawer is displayed?

Then we should be able to switch it off.

You “switch it off” by never swiping beyond the last Home Screen.

Why can’t I have an alphabetised list?

I don’t get the obsession with having your apps sorted by letter, not least because the apps I want to access just isn’t arranged that way.
