Now you can hit a checkbox to turn a page off without deleting everything that’s on it. To do so, uncheck the pages you want to hide from the home screen and tap done on the top right corner. Now, tap on done again to save changes. Another quirky way to get a cleaner look is by removing App icons from your home pages. You can delete icons on the home screen by tapping on icons you want to delete and clicking on the (-) sign. If you wish to remove multiple icons, tap and hold on an app to enter the jiggle mode and tap on other apps to do a batch delete.
This will give you a blank home page, and every new app that you install will be displayed in the app library. Alternatively, you can also add apps you use frequently on the dock at the bottom of the screen. If you think it’ll be a task to find apps you want to open by going to the App library every time. You have the option to use the search the application by swiping down on the home screen where you can easily search for any app in the App search menu.
