App library

Dear Apple...Is this App Library supposed to make me feel more important because I now have more screens to scroll through? The App library is unnecessary and redundant. I already had all of my apps grouped together the way I wanted them. Now Apple has forced another grouping (a full page this time!) on me that I do not need nor did I ask for. I already have a group called “Not Used” which is filled with Apple forced apps that I cannot delete. Now here’s more and it is an entire screen!! This sort of extra nonsense should always come with a CHOICE for the user...

I’d like to think that Apple surveys consumers before building these types of tools but this time I’m guessing “No” because I have yet to see a positive review about the new App Library. Please give the consumer the option to disable this.

Today, a similar thing happened and I searched around for a solution but found no explanations or any clue to how to change it.

Happily, I discovered that, if I held my finger down on the desktop, it came up with one of my familiar desktop screens arranged as I had decided ages ago and then, if I tapped the screen near the bottom, just where the main screen meets the row of 4 basic apps at the bottom, all four of my desktop screen appeared with ticks underneath them and the title ‘Edit Pages’ at the top of the screen. Make sure all 4 are ticked and then you should be OK.

The problem had arisen when I wanted to move an app into one of the group-boxes I’d set up. Normally I’d just slide it across left or right to move through the screens, find the box and let it go. Not today though! So maybe that’s the function Apple have destroyed. I hope they will see the error of their ways and bring it back as I wanted all the courier apps in the same box and now two of them have to be hunted for! But things at least are almost back to normal!

I hope that helps you. I also hate the App Library list. It’s rubbish.

Let Apple know how you feel since there is nothing you can do about it.

Once again, Let Apple know how you feel since there is nothing you can do about it.

The only thing you can do is go to settings>Home Screen and select how you want your apps to act.

you dont have to swipe to that screen.
