There may come a time when you’ve filled your phone with apps, with some you rarely use. People often forget where they left all their icons.

There’s a search bar that is built into the app drawer which can come in handy in this situation. Do one of these two things:

  1. Swipe down anywhere on the screen
  2. Tap the app drawer icon, providing you have it enabled and then go to tap on “Search phone” which should be located at the top of the screen.

Use this to search through any installed apps, SMS, calendar appointments, and settings. This will help you get where you want to be a lot quicker than doing it manually.
