[nfbcs] Removing and grooping apps on iDevices

[Louis Maher]

Peter,

The National Braille Press (nbp.org) has several iOS books.  One of them is:
Getting Started with the iPhone
and iOS 9
Step-by-Step Instructions for Blind Users
By Anna Dresner

You can get electronic copies of this book for $24.  It seems to have
everything you would like to know about the iPhone.

To answer your question, you move the apps on top of one another.  

Find the app you want to move.  Double tap and hold.  Then move the app on
top of another app, and the iPhone makes a folder.  Move more apps into this
folder if you wish.

Subject: [nfbcs] Removing and grooping apps on iDevices


Hello everyone,

	We're learning  to use our iDevices with mixed results. There are
two operations we would like help with.

	The first is creating groups of related apps. I know one can create
folders for various types of apps. For example if one has lots of apps
related to radio they can create a folder called "Radio" and move the icons
for various radio stations into it instead of having them scattered across
multiple pages of apps on their device. Mary's iPhone has a folder called
iWork in which the icons for Pages, Numbers, and Keynote reside. We need to
know how to do this on the device itself or via iTunes whatever option folks
find easier. This will go a long way to helping us organize our apps and
reduce the number of pages on which they're displayed.

	We have a few apps that need to be removed. They're either corrupt
and need to be reinstalled or they don't work with Voiceover. The steps for
removing unwanted apps from one's iDevice will be very much appreciated.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Peter Donahue
