I take full advantage of making folders to organize everything in. Something I rarely see anyone else do. When you have 100+ apps just thrown across several screens, how the hell are you going to find anything? I only need to use 2 screens for everything.
Oh, and mobile security is very important these days. I use ESET, same as I use for my laptops & PCs.

On new version you can swipe down from any desktop page and start typing in a search field on top. I find that to be very quick for rarely used pages.
With that said, I have 5 desktop screens that I setup identically each time I change device or have to do factory reset (I think I had to do that twice in last 7 years).

Also, do you find security/antivirus to be that beneficial? I don't use any on my phone or any of my PCs and never had an issue.

Chris, LastPass went up to $24/yr. Just renewed few weeks ago. Still worth it.
If there was a lifetime license, I would be all over it.

That's extremely odd you have never ran into an issue on your PCs. There has been a number of times, security has saved my computer from malicious code over the years.
And I can not count how many times I have been asked to look at a computer, that was ate up with malware, root kits, and various other malicious code. Although I have no idea what those people had been doing with their computers.

I only started recently using security software on my mobile devices. I never do risky things with my devices but just like PCs, malicious code is everywhere now. And you are not always the source of the vulnerability, as popular apps and software itself gets hacked at their end - which affects you directly.
