It’s funny, I’ve had an Android, a Nokia Windows Phone, and an iPhone, and Windows Phone was the only OS in which I didn’t open every single app through search. The utter lack of an app ecosystem definitely played a part, but I honestly don’t think either of the other two handle home screens/“app drawers” very well. Every modern social media platform/messenger/etc. is built around vertical continuous scrolling because it’s easier. Why is horizontal, paginated scrolling the default for home screens?

That's a good point. Now that you mention it, I would much rather my Home Screen scroll down and I can add as many apps and widgets as I want.

The current iPhone page feels a bit claustrophobic now. Thanks.
