Please let us change icon layouts or icon sizes for folders.
OneUI 2 and 2.5 had 4 icons across, and it was a vertical free-scroll.

OneUI 3.0 is now 3 icons across, wasted space, icons too big, and a horizontal page scroll.

 

I can't find a way to change it, but much preferred the 4 icons across.

 

Can we have layout options like we do for home screen and app screen?

Hello Samsung Support, it's been 3 months that the post to have 4 icons per row or customizable grid for subfolders request was made, kindly update the status on this. it's like talking to the walls.

Totally agree!  At first glance I didn't know where some of my apps had disappeared to, as I have them all nearly organised in folders which worked fine until this backwards step.  Now I have to scroll through 2 pages to find my apps once I enter the relevant folder!  I couldn't believe there was no option to change this view!

I can't find my apps now as my folders now stretch onto 2 pages, such a backward step. Please let us set it back to 4 icons across.

Rediculous change, if you are going to simplify something like this at least give us the options to change it. Made an account just to like this I hope Samsung changes it soon.

Jumping on the bandwagon.

I couldn't believe it.  When I opened a folder and saw 3 giant icons to a row with all this space in between, I said "What the hell!"  It looks like a screen using the default VGA driver on Windows 95. 

Fix this Samsung.

Same issue here. Please change the folder spacing icons back. I have a Note 20 Ultra and wasting so much space on such a big screen makes no sense. I understand some users might like this change but we are not one of them. Give us the option to chose please.

I fully agree  with the topic-starter and all in this multi-page thread that are annoyed by this recent change in folder layout. There is/was absolutely no need to change the question is why don't you let people choose their layout instead of giving them only one option.

Respect your customer Samsung, or you'll start losing them!

because it comes across on 2 pages with the folders on the app screen this is daft.
having a note 20 ultra 5g I have one of the biggest screens going and all that space is wasted. it's either designed to suit smaller phone screens or someone messed up. I now have apps across 2 pages in folders which is annoying.
should be customisable as I have 5x6 for my apps usually due to screen size and space available. makes like easier fitting everything I use on 1 home screen.

poor design. please change it to 4 across or so we customise it ourselves
