Easiest way I know of to organize apps into "folders." And every time a new app is installed it will automatically ask you to choose which folder(s) to assign it to. Folders can also be configured to use custom icons of your choice. For example I use the Google maps icon for my "Travel" folder containing all my apps related to traveling/navigation. Has import export option when upgrading phones.

The best app organizer ever. Many options and easy to configure. I've used Folder Organizer for years. Thanks Fabio!
★★☆☆☆
Great, but one huge flaw. This has to be the best of its Kind! Helps you organize your phone neatly, I've had it for years. But lately, after each samsung update, all the label icons are gone! Even when I Import an old Export, it does not automatically bring back the icons. Meaning I have to go through the extremely time consuming task of deleting each folder and put it back. When there is a fix for that, this app will be fantastic.
★★☆☆☆
I have the previous version of this app, Apps Organizer, by the same author. There are Import and Export operations for both. When I export from the former, the latter doesn't change. But that's hard to tell, because most of the labels are replicated many, MANY times. Some, over 100 times. Really. I counted one of them. Any label you don't want, you have to delete one-by-one. For me, that's hundreds, probably thousands of entries. At 5 seconds per deletion, that's over an hour and a half of mind-numbing, error-prone deletions. *** There really needs to be a way to merge duplicate labels. Starting over, with some 300 apps already categorized would also be prohibitive. ** It would be nice to have a way to associate an icon with a label that doesn't already exist. *** It would be nice to show which labels don't have any apps. (Don't just delete them unless you ask me first!) And...there's no way to report bugs or ask for features in the app!

Trust & Safety: The app requests a broad set of permissions (network, internet, reading and writing contacts and bookmarks, external storage, boot, push, and package management) to support syncing, icon downloads, and widget functionality. It uses Crashlytics/Fabric for crash reporting and Firebase for stability. Widgets are a core feature, and the app cannot be moved to SD card because of widget dependencies.
