foldericonEditor’s Note: Even though this tip may seem obvious to some, there are a lot of new iPhone users out there that may not be aware how to do the above.  

When one gets a new iOS device (iPhone or iPad) the screen may seem overwhelming at first.  iOS has a way for you to organize those icons into “Folders” for you to better organize the screen and make it easier to use and find what you’re looking for.

Here’s how to make a folder in iOS:

  1. Choose an icon from the screen, press and hold it until it wiggles (animates).
  2. Drag the icon on top of another icon. 
  3. The back of the two icons turn into the shape of a folder.
  4. Let the icon that you just dragged go.
  5. The device will come up with a suggested name for the folder.
  6. If you don’t like the name, tap on the end of that name and delete it using the Backspace button.
  7. Name the folder what ever you want.
  8. Press the HOME button when done.
  9. That’s it.
