Now that health and messages are in iCloud, I'm considering erasing my XS Max and starting from scratch. Is there an easy way to dump out a list of all apps I have installed to a file I can save to my desktop? I have iMazing if that can help in any way.

Cheers
 
Apple Configurator (Mac App Store) supposedly can provide that information.

Worst case, screen grabs in iMazing or phone's App Store of the installed list(s).

Personally, why bother? Guessing most people know which apps they use all the time, others that are sometimes apps, rest if stuff just taking up space and probably never used. I'd just install the heavy hitters, the secondaries, and then onesie-twosie apps as needed for the rest.

Just for closure, I used the Apple Configurator. Attached my device and selected Actions->Export->Info... and included installed apps in the choices, then exported to CSV.
