Hi,

I want to organize apps and folders on my phone, but after letting my homescreen(s) go wild for a long time, they became completely clutttered. After lots of manual work combining Apps in folders, i still have a long way to go and dragging icons one after one between 14 screens is really exhausting,... is there a more convenient way of doing this? I suppose some way of doing the organizing via Mac would be way faster. I tried iTunes and iCloud, but didn't find an option to adjust anything...

tnx for any helpful comments,
 
IMO this is the biggest drawback on the iPhone, the inability to change your home screen without totally throwing everything into disarray because you simply want to move a single app. It's like playing whack a mole. Apple has long needed to address this yet they always refused.

iTunes used to be able to do this in the past, but iTunes no longer exists. I believe the feature is just non-existent on modern macOS/iOS

iTunes still exists on Windows machines, but the ability to arrange the iPhone screen in iTunes went away quite some time ago, sadly.

Sure, I have iTunes on my Bootcamp install as well so I can listen to Apple Music on there. But let's be real, the abomination that is iTunes on Windows, is not really "iTunes" as we knew it either ;)
