Re: Moving Apps from One Page to Another

[Richard Turner]

I've not had any issues with doing that with 9.3. Maybe try moving the app 
slowly.
One sure fired method, though tedious, is to move an app out of the dock on a 
page where you have room, then slide an app into the dock, flick to the screen 
where you want it, and slide it up out of the dock.
repeating as necessary.

Re: Moving Apps from One Page to Another

[Kimber Gardner]

I used to move apps quite easily from page to page. But ever since
9.3, I can't get apps to move no nmatter how I try. Like Sherry, I get
the approaching border message then the app just bounces back to where
it was before. Very frustrating.

Can someone refresh my memory on how to move apps with a blue tooth keyboard?

RE: Moving Apps from One Page to Another

[Ron Pelletier]

Hi Kelby,

Simply double tap and hold your finger on the screen. Make sure you place your 
finger on the area that will give you the longest distance of travel before you 
get to the edge. When the icon comes near the edge, you will be notified and it 
will move to the next page. If you hold your finger in place it will move from 
page to page until you decide to let go.

 How do you do this? It seems to be totally random when the page will shift and 
when it won't.

Re: Moving Apps from One Page to Another

[Sherry Wells]

Sieghard,

I have had the same experience re trying to move something only to have it 
pop into a folder with another app.  I definitely do not get the 5 second 
beeping as I do when removing things from folders.  And anytime I want to 
move something to another page it always takes several tries.  I hear 
approaching edge of screen then the icon bounces back to where it was.  I've 
tried going faster & slower & have not found a good way to do this yet. 
Maybe, as you mention, the difference in all our experiences has to do with 
the pressure applied to the screen.  I'll have to play around with that.

Hi Mary,

I have only used my Mom's iPad a few times and one thing for sure is that 
with the larger screen there is a bit more wiggle room so to speak. 
Voiceover may syay you are on a folder, but I find that if I come from the 
right, for example, and move to the left that on an iPad I often have to 
keep on going left just a bit more after it says that it's on an app before 
it says "Opening".


Sherry, As for what you describe, the jumping to another page is probably 
because you aren't moving straight up or down but maybe also a bit sideways 
and then if you are already near an edge it would be easy for iOS to think 
you want to go to the next page.
As for having to hurry because it says it's opening an existing folder, I 
think once again maybe you aren't holding down on the screen firm enough. I 
can just stop and hold when it says "Opening" and nothing happens for at 
least a 5 count, in fact I just tried it and after it says "Opening folder" 
it starts making that beep that you get when you move an app out of a folder 
when it says to hold for 5 seconds to close. It seems like if you don't 
continue to move for 5 seconds it will drop the app in the folder, but 
certainly not before.

Hi Kelby,

Moving apps is not random, but it requires a light touch, if you have a 
good special awareness of how you move your finger when you drag an app it 
is much easier and mostly it requires practice. Try to start small when 
you practice and just see if you can move an app one or two spots to the 
left or right or up or down or maybe see if you can move the top left app 
(in row 1) down into row 2 and on second or third position from the left. 
Voiceover gives some feedback as you move it, it will say if you are on 
another app and it will say stuff like "On so and so app, will create 
folder with so and so app". Here is an example:


Assume you have the calculator app in row 1 on the very left and right 
next to it you have the clock app. Now if you double tap and hold on 
calculator, it will say "Moving  Calculator". If you now drag your finger 
to the right just a bit it should say "On Clock, will create folder with 
clock". If you let go at this point a folder

Re: Moving Apps from One Page to Another

[Antonio Guimaraes]

Hello Chuck,

One other  way to move your apps as you would like is to move the app to the 
last page as you start moving them around. The last page is extra, and is 
always empty.

This way you can group all of the like apps together, then move them where  you 
want them to go.

Re: Moving Apps from One Page to Another

[Mary Otten]

Hi sieghard,
This issue with not being able to actually get an app into a folder on my iPad 
mini two, or move it from one page to another, it seems to hang at the border 
forever, is something that was not present when I first got the iPad. I can't 
even remember which iOS version it had, I think seven but maybe six, when this 
device first came out. At some point, and it may have been iOS 9, initial 
release, this problem of having to be so picky about where you were on the 
folder to get the app to drop in, or move from one page to another, raised its 
head. I always like to start from the extreme side of the page from which I 
want to move, if I'm moving to another page. So if I'm on page 3, I like to 
start Wayover on the right if I'm moving an app to page 2, so as to give myself 
maximum real estate to get that border crossed, so to speak. I never have 
trouble on the phone. But the iPad mini is a whole different story.
Mary

Re: Moving Apps from One Page to Another

[John Panarese]

   That’s a great tip. Yes, there is a pattern to the layout of your apps, 
depending on your model of phone or iPad. It might be 4 by 4 or 4 by 5 or even 
4 by 6. So, use the slide gesture to explore screen icon layouts before you 
start moving them around too.

Re: Moving Apps from One Page to Another

[Kevin Shaw]

Here’s another tip on moving apps across pages.

When you find the app you want to move, double-tap and hold in the middle of 
the screen or wherever you feel comfortable  so you’ve got enough screen space 
to move to the edge and switch pages.  Remember that VO will remember the 
position of the last item you tapped on, so if you have an app on the edge 
you’d like to move to another page, this may be an easier method to give 
yourself some runway. I find that moving an app on he far left or right of the 
screen tends to just hold it there. Also, wait for the little beep that sounds 
after VO announces it has made a new folder. if it’s helpful, remember too that 
icons are laid out on the home screen in a grid, unlike a Windows or Mac laptop 
where icons can be dragged to any location.

Re: Moving Apps from One Page to Another

[Chuck Dean]

Moving apps from the dock is no different than moving apps any other way. 
Double tap and hold until you hear the pass-through sound, and then slide the 
app out of the dock onto page, if the pages full, hold it at the edge and will 
move to the next page into a creates a page.

Hi,

 I have found the easiest way to move apps from page to page, is to take one 
app out of the dock, and put it on the page. 

Now move the app that you want to move to another page into the dock.

 Now swipe with three fingers to go to the page you want to install that app on.

Move the app out of the dock on to the page. 

Once you are finished moving the apps onto the various pages that you want,  
return the original app to the dock.
Hope this helps,

Chuck

Re: Moving Apps from One Page to Another

[Mary Otten]

I haven't tried moving any apps since getting 9.3. But I have not noticed the 
problem you are referring to on my 6S. In fact, on my iPad mini, running the 
same version of iOS as my 6S, I wish they would speed up the folder opening. I 
can sit on a folder all night with an app seemingly, and the damned folder will 
not open to add the app. It's very strange, because I don't have that problem 
on the phone. This is one area where I wish Apple would take a page from 
Google's book. The Google now launcher on android has a beautiful way of moving 
apps, both on the same page and to another page. You have absolute control over 
where the app is going. It's wonderful. And I can't say that when comparing the 
two systems too often.

Re: Moving Apps from One Page to Another

[Sherrie]

Last night I was trying to move some apps on my 6S and it seemed much 
touchier than usual.  For instance I was moving an app fairly straight up 
the page and it kept jumping to the previous page. I am not really a novice 
at this but I had to try over and over and over. The instant you try to move 
across an app it says Opening folder... and then you have to hurry and keep 
moving fast to try to get off before it opens. Sometimes it keeps making new 
folders even when you try to move off the other app. I think I will get out 
my BT keyboard and see if that is easier to control.

So maybe 9.3 is touchier, or the 6S is.
Just a thought.

Hi Kelby,

Moving apps is not random, but it requires a light touch, if you have a good 
special awareness of how you move your finger when you drag an app it is 
much easier and mostly it requires practice. Try to start small when you 
practice and just see if you can move an app one or two spots to the left or 
right or up or down or maybe see if you can move the top left app (in row 1) 
down into row 2 and on second or third position from the left. Voiceover 
gives some feedback as you move it, it will say if you are on another app 
and it will say stuff like "On so and so app, will create folder with so and 
so app". Here is an example:


Assume you have the calculator app in row 1 on the very left and right next 
to it you have the clock app. Now if you double tap and hold on calculator, 
it will say "Moving  Calculator". If you now drag your finger to the right 
just a bit it should say "On Clock, will create folder with clock". If you 
let go at this point a folder will be created and I think it will probably 
be called "Utilities" since folders are typically named according to the 
category of whatever app you are moving. If, for example, you move 
Calculator on Camera it will create a Utility folder, but if you move Camera 
on Calculator it will create a Photography folder. You can edit folder names 
to whatever you want them to be called by opening a folder, double tap and 
hold on an app like you want to move it, then swipe left to the folder name 
which now is in an edit field, you can double tap on it to put focus in the 
edit field, you can then delete what's there and type something new or there 
is also a Clear All button next to I t which wil clear the field.
As far as moving apps from one page to another this I find is easiest if the 
app is already on the edge, for example, if you want to move an app from 
page 1 to page 2 it might work better if you move the app fiurst to the 
third or last position in the row, then start again and drag it right to the 
edge of the screen. Voiceover will say "Moving to Page 2" there will be a 
sound and then you let go and it should have wrapped around. If you continue 
to hold it will keep wrapping to Page 3, Page 4 etc.


Hope this helps a bit, like I said, practice and you'll get it. You can also 
move apps with a Bluetooth keyboard, but somebody else may have to explain 
that since I just never bother.

Sieghard

Re: Moving Apps from One Page to Another

[Chuck Dean]

Hi,
 I have found the easiest way to move apps from page to page, is to take 
one app out of the dock, and put it on the page. 
Now move the app that you want to move to another page into the dock.
 Now swipe with three fingers to go to the page you want to install that 
app on.
Move the app out of the dock on to the page. 
Once you are finished moving the apps onto the various pages that you want, 
 return the original app to the dock.
Hope this helps,
Chuck

RE: Moving Apps from One Page to Another

[SSEric]

You probably know this, but double tap and hold on the app you want to move.
Slide your finger to the left edge of the screen to go back one screen or to
the right to go forward. You have to raise your finger as soon as you hear
"moving to page, etc." It can be a bit tricky to stop in time.

I don't know if this is still the case, but it used to be said that sighted
could connect the device in iTunes and very easily drag and drop apps from
screen to screen. If this still works, it is probably the best way of doing
major housekeeping.

 How do you do this? It seems to be totally random when the page will shift
and when it won't.

RE: Moving Apps from One Page to Another

[Sieghard Weitzel]

Hi Kelby,

Moving apps is not random, but it requires a light touch, if you have a good 
special awareness of how you move your finger when you drag an app it is much 
easier and mostly it requires practice. Try to start small when you practice 
and just see if you can move an app one or two spots to the left or right or up 
or down or maybe see if you can move the top left app (in row 1) down into row 
2 and on second or third position from the left. Voiceover gives some feedback 
as you move it, it will say if you are on another app and it will say stuff 
like "On so and so app, will create folder with so and so app". Here is an 
example:

Assume you have the calculator app in row 1 on the very left and right next to 
it you have the clock app. Now if you double tap and hold on calculator, it 
will say "Moving  Calculator". If you now drag your finger to the right just a 
bit it should say "On Clock, will create folder with clock". If you let go at 
this point a folder will be created and I think it will probably be called 
"Utilities" since folders are typically named according to the category of 
whatever app you are moving. If, for example, you move Calculator on Camera it 
will create a Utility folder, but if you move Camera on Calculator it will 
create a Photography folder. You can edit folder names to whatever you want 
them to be called by opening a folder, double tap and hold on an app like you 
want to move it, then swipe left to the folder name which now is in an edit 
field, you can double tap on it to put focus in the edit field, you can then 
delete what's there and type something new or there is also a Clear All button 
next to I t which wil clear the field.
As far as moving apps from one page to another this I find is easiest if the 
app is already on the edge, for example, if you want to move an app from page 1 
to page 2 it might work better if you move the app fiurst to the third or last 
position in the row, then start again and drag it right to the edge of the 
screen. Voiceover will say "Moving to Page 2" there will be a sound and then 
you let go and it should have wrapped around. If you continue to hold it will 
keep wrapping to Page 3, Page 4 etc.

Hope this helps a bit, like I said, practice and you'll get it. You can also 
move apps with a Bluetooth keyboard, but somebody else may have to explain that 
since I just never bother.


Regards,
Sieghard
