The games on your home screen are those which you have played or downloaded recently. If you have more than 13, on the far-right you will see an All Software button.
You cannot rearrange the games on the home screen. You can move something to the first position by launching it, but it’ll just get unseated if you launch something else afterward.
However, an update to the Switch now allows you to sort the full library. To do this, go to All Software and press R to sort by various options: Most Recently Played (those you have never played will be at the bottom), Longest Play Time (from longest to shortest), Title (from 0 to 9, then A to Z), and Publisher (from 0 to 9, then A to Z).
Hover over the option you wish to sort by, then press A to apply. This will permanently apply the change, but you can easily switch back and forth. This option does not rearrange the icons on the Home screen, only on the All Software page.
How to change the theme on Nintendo Switch
- Head to the home screen on your Switch> Select System Settings at the bottom.
- Choose the theme on the left side of the screen.
- Now, you can select any of your preferred themes between Basic White and Basic Black.
- You’re done.
