My phone

I'm more ADHD than autism
V.I.P Member
My life and home may be chaotically disorganised but somehow my apps on my phone are laid out more organisedly than most other people's are. 😂
Here's a screenshot of my home screen on my phone, with all the apps I use the most. My banking app is scribbled out for privacy reasons.

How organised is your phone?
 
I have an android and I use the launcher named Olauncher, it gets rid of all the colors, all the icons, and just list the apps on alphabetical order... I really like this visuals.

Solid black background, white text. that is all.
 
Mine is sorted by category. Because I have a crap ton of apps. Many I haven’t used in years, some not at all, but I keep them just in case I decide I might. My phone has worlds of space so it’s not hurting anything.

On page 2 is the Extras, which is stuff that came on the phone, and while I don’t use it, I figure it must have been there for a reason.

BTW this is still my first phone. I don’t know a lot about them. Nor do I really care to. That’s why I got an iPhone. Figured I’d get myself in less trouble.

Hi, As i see some people have found my post useful, I want to share a couple of screenshots on how I have set up Olauncher on my android...

The picture with the clock is the main page I see when I unlock the phone, then when I swipe up then the list of apps show up, that is the second picture, I would have to scroll up in that list to find the app I am looking for, or just type the name.

I couldn't bear to have my phone apps like that, it's too dark and bland lol.

I have got this feedback from pretty much everyone that have seeing the phone... the thing is... All the pictures posted in here so far are just... overwhelming for me... I kinda need the bland.

I can’t deal with a background picture on mine either, so I chose solid black. I like yours. The only thing I would do differently if it were mine, is subgroups to minimize the length of the list. But whatever works for you is cool!
 
My background picture is always changing lol, I can never make up my mind which one to use. I did get a live one of fish in an aquarium but it kept using more battery.

I don't like to have too many icons covering up my background.
I would prefer less icons covering my background but I seem to use all apps that show a lot so it was hard to pick what ones can be on my home screen. Having ADHD I like to just go straight to a popular app I use with one tap.

This launcher does not allow groups or folders, it is just a long list... my work around it is to delete apps that I have not used for long time... sometimes you download an app and use it 1 or 2 times and never use it again, but because you hide it in a folder you forget about it.
