iPhone / iPad: create folders - how it works

You can combine several apps in folders on iPhone and iPad. We'll show you how to create the folders.

Create new folder on iPhone and iPad

1. Tap an app icon in the home view. Press and hold the app until the icons start to shake.
2. Now drag the app you want to another icon and then release it.
3. A folder is created in which the two icons are located.
4. You can drag the apps out of the folder at any time. However, there should always be two icons in the folder, otherwise the iOS folder will resolve itself.
5. Finally, press the Home button so that the icons no longer wobble.

Instead of sorting the apps into folders, you can also hide unwanted icons.
