Sort Android apps alphabetically

2. Press the left softkey in the menu and then tap on the "Display type" entry.
3. Now you can choose between "Alphabetical grid" or "Alphabetical list".
4. In the alphabetical grid, the app icons are arranged next to and below one another as icons. The alphabetical list shows a scroll-down list. Tapping "Custom Grid" will restore your original menu.
