Bringing all the downloaded applications to the main screens of the iPhone or iPad can be chaos. And it is that both teams have the possibility of having up to a maximum of eleven fully customizable pages where to place icons. Therefore, finding the program you want to use later can be difficult.
That is why both the iPhone and the iPad allow you to create folders where you can save applications by theme and thus be much more accessible and easy to find. An example would be: save all the games in a folder or create another with all the applications related to social networks. Both the iPhone and the iPad allow you to create up to a maximum of 180 folders in which to store a total of 12 applications for each one of them.
Create folders
Without the need to have the iPhone or iPad jailbroken or use third-party applications, Apple's own current icon system allows the creation of folders in a very simple way. To begin, the user must locate the applications he wants to put together in a folder. Once done, you must click on one of the application icons until all of them start to shake.
After this, the user must move one of the chosen applications to another of them and drop the icon. Suddenly, this icon will change and will become a folder where the client must put a general name - the system itself will create one by default. Once the name is entered, the folder will be created.
Remove apps from folders
On the other hand, if the user wants to remove applications from within the folders, it will be simple. The consumer will have to press again during a short period of time one of the icons inside the application file. Once they start to shake and the cross appears to permanently eliminate programs, the user must drag that application that he wants to leave in the main menu of the computer, out. That is, take the application and remove it from the environment of the folder created.
It should also be mentioned that if applications are started from within the created space, the folders disappear when only one icon remains inside the created space. Therefore, it is the way filing cabinets are removed. Be careful, this is the way to officially delete folders. There are also applications in the Apple online store such as UnFolder that removes them more easily.
