Creating a folder is a simple and straightforward process. Follow these steps to get started:
Step 1: Unlock your iPhone 7 and navigate to your home screen. The home screen is the screen you see when you pick up your phone or press the home button.
Step 2: Locate the app you want to include in the folder. For example, let’s say you want to a folder for your social media apps.
Step 3: Press and hold the app icon you want to include in the folder. Hold it until all the app icons start to jiggle. This means you have entered the edit mode.
Step 4: Once the icons start jiggling, drag the app icon on top of another app you want to include in the same folder. For example, drag the app icon of Twitter and drop it on top of Facebook. This action will create a folder with these two apps.
Step 5: Now you will see a folder automatically created with these two apps inside it. By default, iOS will assign a name to the folder based on the app category. However, you can change the folder name by tapping on the name field and typing a different name. For example, you can name this folder “Social Media”.
Step 6: After naming the folder, you can add more apps to it. To do so, drag an app icon from the home screen and drop it onto the folder. Repeat this action to add as many apps as you want.
Step 7: You can also remove apps from the folder by opening the folder and pressing and holding an app icon until it starts to jiggle. Then, drag the icon out of the folder and release it anywhere on the home screen.
Step 8: If you want to rearrange the apps within the folder, press and hold any app icon within the folder until it starts to jiggle. Then, drag the app icon to the desired position within the folder. You can move the icons freely within the folder to organize them as you prefer.
Step 9: To exit the edit mode, press the home button or swipe up from the bottom (if you have iPhone models with Face ID).
With these simple steps, you can create folders on your iPhone 7, helping you stay organized and finding your apps easily. You can create folders for various categories such as productivity, entertainment, photography, or any other relevant groupings.
Remember to regularly update and organize your folders to suit your evolving needs. Additionally, you can create multiple folders, which will allow you to neatly compartmentalize and categorize your apps as per your preferences.
By taking advantage of this feature, you can transform your home screen into a well-organized space where all your apps are easily accessible. Give it a try and experience the benefits of having organized folders on your iPhone 7.
