Maintain app organization when restoring iOS devices

[earlyadopter]

Interesting article that is worth the read. I have lost my folders a couple of times and it was a pain to set things back the way it was.

If you back it up, after a restore they should be back.

I have experienced this problem exactly in the way the author of the article describes. Thank you very much for posting it.

Thanks for posting.
I recently had this happen to me when my phone was replaced and in spite of all being backed up prior to restoring to new phone, I lost all my organization of my folders.
What a pain to re-do.
This link will help in the event I need to do it again.
