Although you can easily navigate the Home screen to see apps, many users prefer to rearrange the apps into their preferred pattern so that they can quickly launch the apps they use most. The apps can be rearranged by using the App Layout screen in the Apple Watch app on iPhone or by working directly on Apple Watch.<!--more--><\/p>\n<div id=\"toc_container\" class=\"no_bullets\"><p class=\"toc_title\">Contents<\/p><ul class=\"toc_list\"><li><a href=\"#How_To_Organize_Apple_Watch_App_Layout_Video\"><span class=\"toc_number toc_depth_1\">1<\/span> How To Organize Apple Watch App Layout [Video]<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#How_to_Rearrange_Apps\"><span class=\"toc_number toc_depth_1\">2<\/span> How to Rearrange Apps<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#How_to_Rearrange_Icons_on_Apple_Watch_Itself\"><span class=\"toc_number toc_depth_1\">3<\/span> How to Rearrange Icons on Apple Watch Itself<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#A_Few_Tips_about_Best_Ways_to_Organize_Apps\"><span class=\"toc_number toc_depth_1\">4<\/span> A Few Tips about Best Ways to Organize Apps<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#Links\"><span class=\"toc_number toc_depth_1\">5<\/span> Links<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/div>\n<h2><span id=\"How_To_Organize_Apple_Watch_App_Layout_Video\">How To Organize Apple Watch App Layout [Video]<\/span><\/h2>\n<div class=\"ytb\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><iframe title=\"How To Organize Apple Watch App Layout\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/NkwVoAvoqlY?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align:center\">Video uploaded by <a class=\"yt-simple-endpoint style-scope yt-formatted-string\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@CeaddL\" target=\"_blank\">Ceadd L<\/a> on <strong class=\"watch-time-text\">November 24, 2015<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"How_to_Rearrange_Apps\">How to Rearrange Apps<\/span><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\">On iPhone, press <em>Home<\/em> and the <em>Home<\/em> screen will appear.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\">On the <em>Home<\/em> screen, tap <em>Apple Watch<\/em> to open the A<em>pple Watch<\/em> app.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\">Now tap <em>My Watch<\/em> to view the <em>My Watch<\/em> screen.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\">Tap <em>App Layout<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\">When the <em>App Layout<\/em> screen appears, tap and hold the icon you want to move.

Just create folders which will reflect the best action word associated with the apps you frequently need while working or playing with your apps.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\"><em>Organizing in Rows:<\/em> You can easily organize your apps around central themes. To do this just assign each row its own theme. For example, you may have a news row, a maps row, a social media row, a family matters row, and so on.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\"><em>Center Your Apps around Colors:<\/em>\u00a0Many people are\u00a0visual learners and thus they differentiate items by colors. It means that your best organizational scheme might center around color. For example, we all know that Skype features a primarily green icon, while Facebook is largely blue and Google Plus is white. Thus we can drag Facebook next to Twitter which is also blue and select the best convenient color code for any app. This is a great method for cases when we relate first to the application image rather than its function, or when the user relates first on image.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\"><em>Organizing by Frequency:<\/em>\u00a0Every user has\u00a0a few apps he or she relies on everyday. For these cases you may want to minimize time spent searching for icons. Instead you will maximize time spent getting the information you are looking for. So try to organize apps by frequency, as this will be of real help. An interesting way to accomplish this is by assigning each home screen to a level of frequency. The first screen can include the items you use everyday. Then you can swipe once and find the items you use a few times a week. Next, you can swipe another time and find the lesser used apps.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\"><em>Break out the Widgets:<\/em> Widgets are a great way to quickly access a lot of information. By plopping a widget onto one of your home screens, you can manage space. Indeed, you widgets will be a great organizational tool if you want to collect key information without additional clicks.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\"><em>Use One Central Home Screen with Folders:<\/em> One of the great things about modern electronic devices is their flexibility with number of home screens. If you like to swipe a lot, you can have multiple screens. On the contrary, if you prefer a simpler start point, you can center everything on one screen. Now you can fit everything in via folders.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\"><em>SmartBar:<\/em> Note that this is an Android tool. SmartBar combines several features in an easy to access centralized manner. Rather than having to click through to find the app you are looking for to perform the needed task on your smartphone, you can simply access it in a click or two with this feature. With this tool set up on your home screen, you can organize all the applications you want around this powerful feature.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\"><em> Hand Position:<\/em> Another very simple method of organizing your applications is ease of use when holding. We all know that everyone prefers to hold their phone in a slightly different way. Of course, this particular position will likely be the configuration the user uses to open most of the applications. This particularity can be a useful organizational tool. To perform the trick, simply place the apps you use most often closest to the finger you use most when you operate your phone. It is easy to understand that whether this is your thumb or index finger, this organizational scheme can increase the speed at which you operate your smartphone.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span id=\"Links\">Links<\/span><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\">Sell your old Apple Watch.\u00a0Check on our prices for your Apple Watch 1st series.
