For what it's worth, I have 5 pages of apps. In iOS 14, I was able to hide pages 2-5, so that I have my main home screen of apps. If I swipe 3 fingers left I'm in the App Library. Also, the App Library will use its own organizational structure to sort your apps into folders. One thing I like about the App Library is there's a section near the top of recently installed apps, which makes it easier to find those apps I just got. Finally, though it's not directly related to the App Library, I noticed something yesterday when exploring. In prior iOS versions, page 2 was the first home screen of apps, and page 1 was the widgets and notifications screen. In iOS 14, your home screens actually start on page 1. I'm glad they made this change since it was confusing when talking about the page numbers at times with students and others.
