Subject: Re: Here's How to Move Apps Into a Folder With a Bluetooth Keyboard
In this case it was stumbling rather than diligence. I suddenly had a flash of
an idea, and said to myself: I wonder what would happen if I press ... these
keys. I tried it first in keyboard help mode and couldn't believe my ears.

Hi, Joseph,
Just going backto an earlier thread to let you know that I found the escape key
equivalent for the Anker ultraslim keyboard I have. It's fn+home key. Now I can
move apps outside folders with my keyboard. Yay. :)

Hi Teresa and others,
I've not read anyone post a solution to your question regarding moving apps
out of folders, so try this...
1. Navigate inside of a folder within one of your home screens and pick an
app.

Hi, Joseph,
I have an Anker ultraslim bluetooth keyboard. It doesn't seem to have a true
escape key. It acts as the home key. When I press it during the process you
outline below, it immediately exits edit mode and maintains my position in the
folder, effectively cancelling my move process. It
On that specific keyboard, do you know of an equivalent keyboard command
which simulates the Escape key?
If not too much trouble, what are the dimensions of your keyboard? I'm
considering a small keyboard which I can carry with me. The Amazon basics is
actually kinda small itself, about 4 X 10
The keyboard I have has an aluminum frame and is very light. It's also a
fraction of an inch thick. I'd use it with a case, as the plastic keys look a
bit fragile.
I always use my passcode for my iPod now, since my previous one was stolen.
Luckily, I'd just started using the passcode on that

Hi Teresa,
I wonder if you've found a way to move apps using a braille display. I think
you are a braille user, yes?
I appreciate the post about the bluetooth keyboard. I find moving apps not too
bad on my phone, but harder on the iPad, so will definitely take advantage of
this method there.
Hi,
I am not Teresa, but I am also a Braille user, and to my knowledge, there isn't
a way as of yet to move apps with a display.

Hi, Mary and Johnna,
The VO keys are control and option pressed together.
There reY isn't a way to move apps on the Braille display.

Hi, all,
I've done this several times reliably, so I'm going to outline it here, since
there's been some discussion of it in recent threads.
Turn on VO sounds. This will make it easier to detect audio feedback while
moving. Find the app you want to move. Press VO-shift-M. Voiceover will say

Though your post is useful and well written, I wrote the very same type of
tutorial just a week or two ago. Smile. It seems as though many of us are

You are not wrong, but maybe not everybody has time to go through every

Control and option are the VoiceOver keys. Note on a PC keyboard it
would be control and alt since the alt key simulates the option key.

You need to lighten up some and not be so critical. You have to realize that

If you want to cut down on the amount of redundant guides posted to this list,
and more importantly the amount of time spent writing such guides, what about
this? Most of us are aware of and use www.applevis.com. If you have a helpful
guide or tutorial, simply post it to that website. Then,
Nice try Alex,
but as I have said, this list is not for the purpose of advertising other sites
at the expense of VIPhone. I.E. Rather than encouraging people to post to
AppleVis rather than to this list is simply using this list to promote AppleVis
and that sort of thing, as you already know,
I'm assuming you will be taking your own advice, correct? LOL
As for why I post my tutorials here, I'm doing it because I feel they are
better written than what you find on the AppleVis website.

While I thank you for your repeated posting, I would like to point out that

Hi, all,
I just used this command and realized I had forgotten to mention a tricky
aspect of it. Once you have used the move command the second time, the app will
not appear to VO in your folder until you leave edit mode. This threw me the
first couple of times I did it, but it clears up
