Good news, Emma – it’s easy.

Scroll through the pages of apps until you find one you want, such as Safari. Then just tap and hold on the icon until it jiggles. Drag it down onto the bottom area and let go. Do the same with the other icons you want.

To finish up press the Home button once, or drag down from the very top of the screen to display Notifications (iOS5).

Let us know how you get on!

Brilliant! Very clear concise instructions.
I’m all organised now :-)
Thank you and well done.

I have used folders so as not to maximize the limit on the number of pages that can be placed on my Itouch 4. Wouldn’t the other applications not included in the previous ones during the time I installed applications appear now since I have now 4 pages instead of 11?

I’m not aware of any way to make a private folder, I’m afraid. As for creating a folder, if you’re running a recent version of iOS it should work.

I can’t move an app o er another app to create a folder. Is there any other way I could do that. I want to create a private folder that other people can’t open if they have my iPod. Is there anyway that after making a folder you could lock it. Please help me. Thanks.

John, on both my iPad and iPhone 4S with latest everything (but not voice control) the Home Button still stops the icons from jiggling.

Perhaps you should submit a bug report to Apple.

Thanks for reading.

Cheers,
