There are many apps that we use on our iPhone or iPad. So much that somehow you have to be able to order them to continue to access those we need easily and quickly. That’s where app folders come in. Let’s see how to create, edit, and delete them.
Let’s go to Jiggle mode first
Before getting into the subject of creating and editing folders, we must talk about how to enter the mode that allows us to edit applications and folders on the home screen itself. same. There are two options to enter this mode which, in English, we know Jiggle mode.
The first is to simply press and hold any app icon for at least five seconds. The second is to press and hold the icon of this same application for a second and then, in the menu that appears, choose Change home screen.
Once we are in Jiggle mode, we will see that all the applications on the home screen will jiggle. In addition, they will show a small cross at the top left that would allow us to delete the application in question. It is at this moment when all the candidacies tremble, when we can start editing to create, modify or delete mats.
When you are done, to get out of this Jiggle mode, you just need to we touch the button OKAY from the top of the screen or wait about 20 seconds until the system automatically returns to the normal home screen.
And we create, modify and delete the folders we need
Now that we are in Jiggle mode, we can start creating the different folders. Much like creating folders and subfolders to organize our mail in Mail, the process is very simple. enough that drag one app on top of another to create a folder which contains both. To add more applications to this same folder, once created, we simply drag these applications to the new folder, nothing more.
Renaming a folder is also very simple. Keep in mind that the original name of the folder depends on the type of applications we just created. So if we want to change it, we simply have to open the folder in question, being in edit mode, and touch the name of it. After writing the name that suits us best, we just have to touch the outside of the folder to close it.
Once we’ve created the folder, renamed it, and added several apps to it, it’s time to tidy up. We can change the order of applications in any folder, for this we simply have we swipe to the new location as we would on the home screen.
Deleting apps in a folder is just as easy. Instead of dragging these apps to a new location in the same folder we get them out. This will close the folder and we can drop the applications to the location we choose on the home screen.
This is also the system we will use to delete a folder. when a file lack of apps inside is removed automatically. Thus, we just have to select and drag all the applications to the home screen to eliminate any folder that we have created.
Through the App Library and these resources we can order the applications of our iPhone or iPad according to our needs. The simplest resources, but based on some tricks that are better to know in order to quickly and easily control our device to comfortably access all our applications.
