How can I quickly organize apps on my iPhone home screen?

As it is moving them one by one, getting them to the right page and arranging them in an order that makes sense and allows me to readily find them is tedious and frustrating. With several pages and dozens of apps to sort through this is a very difficult and time consuming task. So even with removing apps I don't use I still struggle to keep up with this never ending project as I add new apps. Over time it has become a complete mess.

I find it surprising that since removing this function with iTunes Apple has still not developed a better way to get that done. I can't be the only one who doesn't want to devote an hour or more to this one task every other week.

As a side note I did find out how to move more than one app at in a recent (as of this posting) CNET article:

How To Quickly Organize Your iPhone and iPad Home Screen Apps

To rearrange multiple apps at once, long-press on any app icon or the home screen itself until you enter jiggle mode.

Now, start to drag one of the app icons to an empty spot on your screen, and with your finger still on the app icon, use your other hand to tap any more apps that you want to relocate. As you tap more icons, your iPhone or iPad will create a stack of apps under your finger, along with a number that shows how many you've selected.

When you're done selecting all of the apps you want to move, you can drag the stack of multiple apps to a new screen, folder or wherever it is you want to place them, and then just lift your finger.

If you want to get particular about the placement of each of the apps, you should know that the apps are sorted in the reverse order of how you selected them. That means the first app you select and start to move will be the last app in the grid of the apps you move, and the last app you add to the stack will be the first app in the grid.
