Most of us are used to folders. For years we have used folders in Windows computers and Mac. All of a sudden, smartphones came and there came this bare-bones, open interface where there were no folders. If you are a person who has downloaded lots and lots of apps and want to organize everything in the form of folders, the good news is that you can create folders in Android. Android gives you the flexibility to create folders and add apps to them. This way, your apps menu will have no clutter and everything will look nice and clear. Here’s how to make folders in Android.

Tap and hold on any app which you want to put into a folder. After a couple of seconds, you will see two options on the top screen: Remove and “Create Folder”. Just drag the app icon to the create folder icon.

Next, you will be asked to give a name to the folder. You can either enter a name or just tap the back button and the folder will be created without a name.
