Move apps and widgets on the iPad Home Screen
You can change the layout of your Home Screen—move apps and widgets anywhere on the screen to frame your wallpaper, or drag them to other Home Screen pages. If you have multiple Home Screen pages, each one can have a unique layout. You can also temporarily hide Home Screen pages, change where new apps get downloaded, and more.
Tip: You can move all your apps and widgets related to a particular Focus (your Work Focus, for example) onto one Home Screen page, and make that page accessible during that Focus.
Move apps and widgets around on your Home Screen
Touch and hold the Home Screen background until the items begin to jiggle.
Drag the app or widget to one of the following locations:
Another location on the same page—including the top, bottom, or side of the screen
Another Home Screen page
Drag the app or widget to the right edge of the screen. You might need to wait a moment for the new page to appear. The dots above the Dock show how many pages you have and which one you’re viewing.
Tip: You can also drag an app to the Dock at the bottom of the screen.
When you’re finished, tap Done at the top right.
Remove a widget from your Home Screen
Touch and hold the widget to open the Quick actions menu.
Do one of the following:
To remove a widget: Tap Remove Widget.
To remove a Smart Stack: Tap Remove Stack.
Reset the Home Screen and apps to their original layout
Go to Settings
> General > Transfer or Reset iPad.
Tap Reset, then tap Reset Home Screen Layout.
Any folders you’ve created are removed, and apps you’ve downloaded are alphabetically ordered after apps that came with your iPad.
