How to create folders on a Samsung Phone

Creating folders is simple, and as soon as you create one or a few, you will have a completely different perspective. The Home screen won’t be piled up with apps; you can organize it so you can find and launch the apps in seconds. Here's how to do that:

  • Find the app you want to be in the folder.
  • Tap and hold the app
  • Next, tap Select items.

  • Now find the apps you want to add to the folder and tap on them.
  • Tap Create folder

  • Next, tap Enter folder name and type the name you want. For instance, Games – if you are creating a folder for the games.

  • Tap Done
  • To add more apps, tap Add Apps.
  • Find the app you want to place in the folder and tap Add.
  • If you want to place the folder on the home screen, tap on it and then tap Add to home

That’s it. You have successfully created a folder on your Samsung phone.

Suppose you want to delete the folder at some point, tap and hold it. Tap Delete Folder and then tap Delete. You won’t delete the apps in the folder by deleting the folder. Instead, the apps will be moved back to the Apps screen.
