I can't organize my apps in Itunes

Normally I would plug in my iPhone to my MacBook and when iTunes would open, I would delete apps, move them and organize them on different pages, and re-sort the pages all in iTunes and then would hit the "Sync Now" button and all would be right in the world. Now the Apps option is missing from the left menu column and I can't find it. Can someone help?

iPhone 7 Plus, iOS 11.2.6

Apple removed app management starting with iTunes 12.7. Read the second document on various ways to do this including using an older iTunes and manually installing ones already on your computer.

Manually manage content on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using iTunes - https://support.apple.com/HT201593 - "Manually add items from your computer: If you have media on your computer that you can't redownload from the App Store or iTunes Store directly on your iOS device, such as custom ringtones or iOS apps, you can drag and drop the media from your computer to your iOS device using iTunes."
