How to find an app in the Apps Drawer on Android phone?
Featured on Android smartphones and tablets, the app drawer is a menu containing all the applications installed on the device. The app drawer is different from the home screen because it contains every installed app and cannot be customized.
The place where you find all apps installed on your Android phone is the Apps drawer. Even though you can find launcher icons (app shortcuts) on the Home screen, the Apps drawer is where you need to go to find everything.
STEPS:
After you tap the Apps icon, you see the Apps drawer. Swipe through the pages left and right or up and down across the touchscreen.
To run an app, tap its icon. The app starts, taking over the screen and doing whatever magical thing the app does.

As you add new apps to your phone, they appear in the Apps drawer.

Some phones allow you to create folders in the Apps drawer. These folders contain multiple apps, which helps keep things organized. To access apps in the folder, tap the folder icon.

The Apps drawer displays apps alphabetically. On some phones, you can switch to a non-alphabetical viewing grid. With that feature active, it’s possible to rearrange the apps in any order you like.

For apps that you use all the time, consider creating launcher icons on the Home screen.
