For the same purpose of revealing all your applications, the Galaxy Note 9 uses both the home screen and the Apps tray or the Apps drawer. If you were formerly making use of an Apple device, this might confuse you, because Apple’s iPhone devices do not have the Apps Tray feature.

The reason for needing an Apps Tray is most times unclear to phone users since the apps icons can simply be accessed from the home screen, which is only some scrolls away from the home button. There is no straight answer to this question, but it is clear that the phone companies saw a future of phone owners not seeing a need for the Apps Tray feature, as there is a way to turn the feature off on the Galaxy Note 9.

An easy way to disable the feature is via the Samsung Labs under the Settings app.
