How do I alphabetise my apps automatically?

Is there a way of sorting my apps into alphabetical order without going through and doing it app by app myself??

Settings->General->Reset->Reset Home Screen Layout. This will put Apple default apps in their default locations, and alphabetize all third party Apps. This also has the side effect of breaking all custom folders you may have made.


If you need an alphabetized list for some reason and don’t want to destroy custom folders and organization, you can swipe to the last home screen to access App Library, and tap on the search bar at the top. It will then list all apps in alphabetical order.
