Arrange or delete apps on Apple Vision Pro

Learn how to arrange apps in Home View and organize apps with folders. You can also delete most built-in apps and any app you've downloaded from the App Store.

How to arrange apps on Apple Vision Pro

1. Open Home View with a gesture or by pressing the Digital Crown.

2. Look at an app that you want to move, then pinch and hold it until all the apps start to jiggle.

3. Drag the app to its new location, then let go. If you want to move the app to a different Home View page, drag it to the left or right edge of Home View, then place the app in its new location and let go. You can also swipe quickly through pages in Home View: while pinching and holding an app with one hand, use the pinch-and-flick gesture to swipe with your other hand.

4. Repeat for all the apps that you want to move. When you're finished, tap the Done button.

Organize your apps with folders

With visionOS 26 and later, you can customize your Home View by creating folders for apps.

How to create an app folder in visionOS

1. Open Home View with a gesture or by pressing the Digital Crown.

2. Look at an app that you want to create a folder for, then pinch and hold it until all the apps start to jiggle.

3. Drag the app onto a second app that you want to include in the new folder. If the second app is on a different Home View page, drag the app that you're holding to the left or right edge of Home View to switch pages until you find the second app.

4. Hold the app directly on top of the second app until the second app expands slightly, then let go. visionOS creates a folder containing the two apps. To customize the folder name, tap the folder, type in the text field, then tap somewhere outside of the folder to close it.

5. Tap the Done button.

How to move apps into or out of a folder

1. Open Home View with a gesture or by pressing the Digital Crown.

2. Look at the app that you want to move, then pinch and hold it until all the apps start to jiggle.

3. Drag the app directly on top of the folder until it expands slightly, then let go.

4. Tap somewhere outside the folder to close it.

5. Repeat for all the apps that you want to rearrange. When you're finished, tap the Done button.

To move an app out of a folder:

1. Open the folder.

2. Pinch and hold the app until all the apps start to jiggle.

3. Drag the app out of the folder into Home View, then pause. When the folder closes, you can drag the app to its new location in Home View.

4. Tap the Done button.

How to arrange apps within a folder

1. Open Home View with a gesture or by pressing the Digital Crown.

2. Open the folder.

3. Look at an app that you want to move, then pinch and hold it until all the apps start to jiggle.

4. Drag the app to its new location in the folder, then let go. If you want to move the app to a different page in the folder, drag it to the left or right edge of the folder to change pages, then place the app in its new location and let go.

5. Repeat for all the apps that you want to arrange within the folder, then tap somewhere outside the folder to close it.

6. Tap the Done button.

About the More Apps folder

By default, Home View includes More Apps, a built-in folder containing apps designed for iPhone and iPad that you can use with Apple Vision Pro.

Compatible iPhone and iPad apps are placed into the More Apps folder automatically when you download them. Downloaded apps that are native to visionOS appear directly in Home View.

Just like with folders that you create, you can move apps into and out of the More Apps folder, and rearrange apps within it.

How to delete apps from Apple Vision Pro

1. Open Home View with a gesture or by pressing the Digital Crown.

2. Look at the app that you want to delete, then pinch and hold.

3. Tap Remove App.

4. Tap Delete to confirm.

Use the App Store if you want to reinstall any apps that you've deleted.

If you can't delete an app

Some built-in visionOS apps can't be deleted. If you follow the steps above and Remove App doesn't appear above the app you want to delete, that means the app can't be deleted.
