How do I hide recently added apps on iPhone?
If you’re an iPhone user and have ever found yourself with a cluttered home screen filled with apps you’ve recently downloaded but no longer need, you’re not alone. The good news is that there’s a simple way to hide these apps and keep your home screen looking neat and organized. In this article, we’ll guide you through the process of hiding recently added apps on your iPhone.
Firstly, it’s important to note that there’s no specific “recently added” section on the iPhone’s home screen. However, you can easily hide any app you’ve recently installed by following these steps:
1. Access the App Library: To begin, swipe up from the bottom of your screen to access the App Library. This feature was introduced in iOS 13 and allows you to view all your apps in a single, scrollable list.
2. Find the App: Once in the App Library, scroll through the list of apps until you find the one you want to hide. Alternatively, you can use the search bar at the top to search for the app by name.
3. Hide the App: Once you’ve found the app, tap and hold on its icon until it starts to jiggle. Then, tap the “x” button that appears on the app’s icon to hide it.
4. Remove from Home Screen: If you want to remove the app from your home screen entirely, you can drag the app’s icon to the “Remove App” section at the bottom of the screen. This will delete the app from your iPhone.
Remember that hiding an app doesn’t delete it from your iPhone. You can always unhide it by going back to the App Library and tapping the “x” button on the app’s icon, then selecting “Add to Home Screen.”
By following these simple steps, you can easily hide recently added apps on your iPhone and keep your home screen looking organized and clutter-free.
