Realme: Rename a Home Screen Folder

New folders on your Realme home screen get generic names like 'Social Networks' or 'Lifestyle', assigned automatically based on the apps you drop inside them. If you sort apps by your own logic - projects, moods, or daily routines - these auto-generated labels stop making sense fast. Renaming lets you turn any folder into something that actually matches how you use your phone.

Rename a Folder auf Realme

When you group apps into a folder on your Realme home screen, Realme UI assigns a name automatically based on the app category it detects inside. That is why a mix of Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook usually ends up in a folder called Social Networks, while streaming apps land in one called Entertainment.

This automatic naming works as a starting point, but it rarely matches how you actually think about your apps. Once you start moving unrelated apps into the same folder, the original category name no longer fits its content.

To change it, tap on a Folder to open it, then tap on the Current name shown at the top. Enter a Name and tap on Save to apply it.

The new name stays attached to the folder even if you add or remove apps later. Realme UI does not revert folder names on its own, so your custom label remains until you change it again.

Frequently asked questions

No. Each folder has to be renamed individually by opening it, tapping on the Current name, and entering a new one.
