Go to app location from search

I have quit a lot of apps on my phone. A lot of the have been put into folder. While I know that you can get the name of the folder to show by pushing enter at the end of your search. There is still a long ways tog. I have about 16 home screens all full of folders (some with the same exact name). So I even with the folder name I am in no way closer to locating the particular app I am looking for. Dose anybody know of a way to jump from the the search result to the location?

navigating through numerous apps across multiple folders can be quite a task. A more efficient method to locate an app after searching for it would be to utilize the App Library feature. This feature is conveniently positioned next to the last page of your Home Screen. It acts as a comprehensive repository where all your apps are neatly organized in alphabetical order.

Once you've conducted a search and found the app you're looking for, accessing it directly from the App Library can be a time-saving solution. Moreover, the Spotlight search functionality seamlessly extends to the App Library, ensuring that you can quickly pinpoint and access the desired app without having to manually scour through multiple folders or screens.

This method eliminates the need to remember specific folder names or navigate through numerous screens, offering a more streamlined and efficient way to access your apps based on search results.

Thank you for your reply :) I appreciate it.

I am familiar with both of these options however I would like to avoid scrolling through 15 home screens every time I wanna open an app. I find the categories in the app library to be too broad.

Though I know this is a matter of personal perspective. Nonetheless, I would like to move the apps to a location of my choice, but the option to do so is not available in either the app library or a search.
