Add apps to home screen on ipad

dub50

Can purchased apps be added to the home screen or do they always have to start on the 2nd screen (as in the screen you swipe across to)

Tap and hold the icon until they all start shaking, then you can move them where ever you want, including the dock on the bottom.

Can move them around on each screen no problem when they are shaking but cannot move them onto different home screens though

Thanks anyway

If you drag it in the direction of the screen you want to move it to and hold it on the edge 'til the screen swipes then you can move them to another screen.... I find sometimes if I try to do it too fast it drops the icon and sends it back where it came from.

Yes you can, either bring them down to the bottom bar than back up on the home screen, or simply just swipe them over.

Absolutely spot on.

Thanks all

Have the knack now, it requires a gentler touch than on the I phone
