Hi Julie, Here is what I do to edit the name of afolder (I am using a folder called Home Automation as my example: 1. I find the folder for which I want to edit the name, Home Automation in my example, and now I flick up or down to Edit Mode and double tap (just as if I wanted to move an app) 2. Voiceover will say "Started Editing", now I flick up to Activate and double tap 3. You hear the folder opening sound and Voiceover will say "Folder Name, Home Automation, text Field" 4. Double tap and Voiceover will say "Folder name, text field is editing,Home Automation, insertion point at end" 5. You now have the keyboard on the screen, you can double tap in the text field to move to the beginning, move backwards or forward by whatever movement unit you set on the rotor, you can backspace and type and there is a "Clear All" button one swipe to the right of the edit field. 6. After you finish editing the name just double tap the "Done" button at the bottom right of the keyboard.
You can also get to where you can edit the folder another way like this: 1. Double tap the folder to open it 2. Put focus on the first app in the folder or actually on any app if you want. 3. Swipe up or down to "Edit Mode" and double tap, Voiceover will say "started editing" 4. Swipe left until you get to the folder name, using my example it will now say "Home Automation, text field", same as in step 3 above. 4. You can now double tap to start editing the text field and continue with step 5 and 6 above. I find the first method easier, instead of first opening the folder, starting editing mode on one of the apps and moving back to the folder name you simply do 4 simple gestures: Swipe up, double tap, swipe up, double tap then double tap one last time and you are where you can edit the name.

I searched in the app store. Would an add-on be anywhere else? Thank you, Julie Also how can I edit name of a specific folder? There used to be an edit box but no more in folders. It just lists what is in the folder. Live simply, Love generously, Care deeply, Speak kindly And leave the rest to God!
