    Help Scrolling Direction

    All of a sudden when I go to the Apps, one has to swipe up or down. It used to be right to left, left to right. No big deal. Just curious: did I somehow set it to do this? If so, I can't find the setting. Or is this an automatic upgrade issue? Be gentle... I'm new to this, believe it or not. Thanks.
