Step 1: Unlock your iPhone and go to the home screen
To begin customizing your iPhone’s home screen, unlock your device by entering your passcode or using Face ID. This will take you to the default home screen.
Step 2: Tap and hold an app icon
Find an app on your home screen that you want to move to a new home screen. Press and hold the app icon until it starts to wiggle. This indicates that you can now move and rearrange app icons.
Step 3: Drag the app icon to the right side
While still holding the app icon, drag it towards the right side of the screen. As you move it, you will notice a new home screen being created on the right side. Place the app icon on this new home screen wherever you’d like it to be.
Step 4: Adding more apps to the new home screen
If you want to add more apps to the new home screen, repeat Step 2 and Step 3 until you have all the desired apps on the screen. This will allow you to group similar apps together or create a custom layout.
Step 5: Customizing your home screen further
If you want to give your new home screen a unique look, you can customize it further. Here are some additional tips:
- Arrange app icons: Tap and hold an app icon to enter the wiggle mode. You can then drag and drop app icons to rearrange them on the screen.
- Create folders: Drag an app icon onto another app icon to create a folder. This is useful for organizing apps by category.
- Change wallpaper: Go to “Settings” > “Wallpaper” > “Choose a New Wallpaper” to change the background image of your home screen.
- Add widgets: Swipe right from your primary home screen to access the Today View. At the bottom of this screen, tap “Edit” to add widgets that provide useful information at a glance.
Step 6: Enjoy your custom home screen
Take some time to arrange your apps, create folders, and add widgets until your new home screen fits your needs and style. Enjoy the convenience of quickly accessing your favorite apps and information right from your custom home screen.
Customizing your home screen is a great way to personalize your iPhone and improve your productivity. Follow these steps and get creative with your new home screen layout. Have fun exploring all the possibilities!
