How to Create a Folder on Apple iPhone
Creating a folder on your Apple iPhone can help you organize your apps and keep your home screen looking clean and tidy. Folders allow you to group related apps together, making it easier to find and launch them when needed. In this article, we will guide you through the simple steps to create a folder on your iPhone.
Step 1: Find the Apps You Want to Add to the Folder
First, locate the apps you want to add to the folder. You can find them on your home screen or in the App Library. Make sure you have the apps you want to group together ready to be selected.
Step 2: Tap and Hold an App
Next, tap and hold an app on your home screen. This will enter the “jiggling” mode, where all the app icons will start to wiggle and a small “x” will appear on each icon. This mode allows you to rearrange, delete, or create folders.
Step 3: Drag an App to Another App
While in the “jiggling” mode, drag the app you want to add to the folder onto another app. You will see a preview of the folder appear on the screen. This preview will show the app you’re dragging and the app it’s being dropped onto.
Step 4: Name Your Folder
Once the preview of the folder appears, you can tap on the folder’s name. A text field will appear where you can enter a name for your folder. Choose a name that reflects the apps you’ve added to the folder, such as “Work” or “Entertainment.”
Step 5: Add More Apps to the Folder
After naming your folder, you can continue adding more apps to it. Simply drag additional apps from the home screen or App Library and drop them into the folder. The folder will expand to accommodate the new apps.
Step 6: Organize Your Folder
If you want to rearrange the apps within the folder, tap and hold an app icon, then drag it to the desired position. You can also remove an app from the folder by tapping the “x” on the app icon and confirming the deletion.
Step 7: Save Your Changes
Once you have added all the apps you want to the folder and organized them to your liking, tap the “Done” button in the upper-right corner of the screen. This will save your folder and return you to the home screen.
Now you have successfully created a folder on your Apple iPhone. By following these simple steps, you can easily organize your apps and keep your home screen clutter-free. Happy organizing!
