Sorting app icons, paginated AND alphabetical? (S24 Ultra)

Notageek — Sun, 18 May 2025 18:46:47 GMT

I have recently bought an S24 Ultra, and recently it upgraded to UI 7.

I do not like my apps (not the home screen) to be presented in scrolling mode, so I changed the setting to paginated. Great, back to what I prefer . . . . but then I realised that they are not in alphabetical order.

It seems that under "Sort" I can only choose "custom order" or "alphabetical". - Alphabetical gives the scrolling screen option but the apps are in alphabetical order. When I select custom order, the apps are presented in pages (paginated) to swipe from one to the other, BUT no longer in alphabetical order.

I tried "the option "clean up pages" but that does not seem to help.

Is there a way to achieve paginated apps in the aps drawer, and alphabetical order? - without physically re-ordering them manually.

Thanks.

Not yet. Hopefully, there will be a change in a future update.
