Re: Moving apps to folders

[Lynn White]

 Yep, that works very well.

By the way, I learned about this through Jonathan's book while looking to solve 
someone else's issue.

I like how all this works in iOS ten.

RE: Moving apps to folders

[Richard Turner]

I’m going to assume you are using iOS 10.
Moving apps in iOS 10


 Here is my summary of how it works.

Touch the app you want to move.

Flick up once and you should hear, Arrange apps.

double tap.

Then, do a two finger double tap and it should say something like choose a

destination for the app.

Now, use your normal method to get to where you want the app.  If you are in a 
folder and want to move the app out of the folder, do the two finger scrub to 
close the folder without stopping the edit mode.

If you want to move the app to a different page, just do the three finger swipe 
to get there.

Touch where you want the app. Even if you want it in a folder, just touch the

folder, don't open it.

Flick up with 1 finger and you will hear options like, place after x app, or

before x app, or put in x folder, whatever you want to do, just double tap with

one finger and Wala, it is done.

When you find an app you wish to create a folder with, flick up or down until 
you hear the option to create a folder with that app, and double tap.

BTW, deleting apps is the same as always, once it says edit, double tap with 
one finger and you will get the option to delete it.

HTH,

Richard

the trick.  that is as soon as they return the iTunes accessibility back to 
version 10.6.

 Hi jordan,

 The folders are exactly aligned in the rows and columns. I find it
 much easier to move a folder next to an app I want to put in it then
 the other way around. If you move an app and you accidently let go in
 the wrong spot you may put it into another folder or create a new one.
 If you move a folder you can really go with the little beeps as to how
 many spots you moved it left, right, up or down. Hence if I have an
 app in the very right place in row 4 and I want to move that into a
 folder that sits in row 2 and column 2 (second from the left edge)
 then I move the folder into row 4 column 4 which means into the
 position the app is in, this will push the app into column 3 on row 4
 which means it will be just to the left of the folder. I would simply
 double tap and hold the folder, then drag it straight right 2 beeps
 which means it's now in column 4 on row 2, then I drag it straight
 down 2 beeps. Now I look for the app to the left of the folder, I
 double tap and hold on it and drag it to the right just a bit until it
 says it's on the folder, then let go. Now I can drag the folder back to
 where I want it.

 This primarily is only a matter of practice and as long as you have
 good special awareness and are able to drag your finger straight
 across a row or straight up or down you'll get better at it. What will
 make it more unpredictable is if you have problems with the
 directions, e.g. you think you are dragging your finger straight
 across row 2, for example, but in fact you are dragging it across and 
 down
 or across and up.

I would add to this the ability to create a folder first on a page then use

One suggestion which might work if Apple would do it is double tap and hold 
to go into wiggle mode. Then triple tap an app to market for moving. This 
way it would bypass the double tap on the app to delete it. So in my 
suggestion if you triple tap an app it will market for moving. Then you can 
find the Square or the page you want to move it to and do a triple tap on 
that new location and the app would be dragged there instantly. I personally 
don't have any issues with the way it works now, but I also understand that 
it can be difficult for some people to master or get comfortable with.

When done properly moving files between pages or in and out of folders only
takes about 3 seconds and is very easy. No computer is needed at all and
would probably make things harder. Those of you new to IOS please keep in
mind when someone posts their difficulties it is their difficulties and
not necessarily problems you will encounter. I'm mentioning this because its
usually the one's who have problems that are the most vocal, which gives
newbie's a sense of a task being difficult since those who can complete X
task obviously don't have complaints. I can't tell you how much time I've
awasted in having to show others that Windows7 or Win8 features such as
start menu are not difficult to learn or use. The problem is that they've
read tons of email messages from people who struggle because these people
don't read or try to solve problems for more than a couple of minutes. This
mindset is then confirmed when a newbie has a problem with w7 as they
conclude every post on the matter was correct, but this perceived problem is
actually a problem that would happen in any Windows OS. It took me just a
couple of days to learn the operating system on my iPod Touch, which is very
similar to the iPhone, which means I will make an easy transition to the
iPhone when the time comes. I simply read and experimented just like anyone
new to any venture. I didn't join this list to bug others because I'm
thinking of buying an IOS device but can't make up my mind or am worried
about accessibility. There are 1400 people on this list, it is obvious IOS
is accessible. I simply received the iPod Touch as a gift and after help
with the initial setup and running a Google search for the manual, I was
quickly on my way. I of course then found this list and the AppleVis website
and learning curve over. Of course I may need help in the future, but I'm
pretty confident I can figure out most things if someone else was able to do
so too. The apple platform is used by children and by seniors, it is very
simple due to it's consistent and predictable structure, and this is the
case by intent. I guess my point is that anyone, absolutely anyone can
master this thing and quite quickly regardless of level of vision, age, etc.

Re: Moving apps into folders?

Hi Raul and others 

It's actually 20 apps with the iPad. 

I like your idea about the triple tap to mark for moving and than another 
triple tap for dropping. Nice. Like you I don't have much trouble with the 
current situation however it is certainly a bit fiddly at times. 

Unlike others I don't usually go to the bother of moving things in and out of 
my doc just in order to move than from page to page. I think this has been made 
quite simple in the last few iterations of iOS. One helpful trick is to 
remember that you don't need to place your finger on the actual app to do the 
double tap and hold. So if yo have an app on page one and want to move it to 
page two, you can put your focus on the app than do the double tap and hole on 
the far left of the screen. This way you have plenty of space to move your 
finger to the left and thus move the app to the second screen. This said 
there's definitely a place for using the Doc when moving lots of apps around 
and or creating folders.

 Hi jordan,
 
 The folders are exactly aligned in the rows and columns. I find it much
 easier to move a folder next to an app I want to put in it then the other
 way around. If you move an app and you accidently let go in the wrong spot
 you may put it into another folder or create a new one. If you move a folder
 you can really go with the little beeps as to how many spots you moved it
 left, right, up or down. Hence if I have an app in the very right place in
 row 4 and I want to move that into a folder that sits in row 2 and column 2
 (second from the left edge) then I move the folder into row 4 column 4 which
 means into the position the app is in, this will push the app into column 3
 on row 4 which means it will be just to the left of the folder. I would
 simply double tap and hold the folder, then drag it straight right 2 beeps
 which means it's now in column 4 on row 2, then I drag it straight down 2
 beeps. Now I look for the app to the left of the folder, I double tap and
 hold on it and drag it to the right just a bit until it says it's on the
 folder, then let go. Now I can drag the folder back to where I want it.
 
 This primarily is only a matter of practice and as long as you have good
 special awareness and are able to drag your finger straight across a row or
 straight up or down you'll get better at it. What will make it more
 unpredictable is if you have problems with the directions, e.g. you think
 you are dragging your finger straight across row 2, for example, but in fact
 you are dragging it across and down or across and up.

 Sieghard

Wish I could do it through iTunes like my husband did some on his phone, it
looks to Jaws like it should work, but from past experimenting, I know it
does not.  
Apple should make all of iTunes accessible like moving and working on
screens, in my humble opinion but then, that isn't worth much.

Re: Moving apps into folders?

[Lauren Simmons]

When done properly moving files between pages or in and out of folders only 
takes about 3 seconds and is very easy. No computer is needed at all and 
would probably make things harder. Those of you new to IOS please keep in 
mind when someone posts their difficulties it is their difficulties and 
not necessarily problems you will encounter. I'm mentioning this because its 
usually the one's who have problems that are the most vocal, which gives 
newbie's a sense of a task being difficult since those who can complete X 
task obviously don't have complaints. I can't tell you how much time I've 
awasted in having to show others that Windows7 or Win8 features such as 
start menu are not difficult to learn or use. The problem is that they've 
read tons of email messages from people who struggle because these people 
don't read or try to solve problems for more than a couple of minutes. This 
mindset is then confirmed when a newbie has a problem with w7 as they 
conclude every post on the matter was correct, but this perceived problem is 
actually a problem that would happen in any Windows OS. It took me just a 
couple of days to learn the operating system on my iPod Touch, which is very 
similar to the iPhone, which means I will make an easy transition to the 
iPhone when the time comes. I simply read and experimented just like anyone 
new to any venture. I didn't join this list to bug others because I'm 
thinking of buying an IOS device but can't make up my mind or am worried 
about accessibility. There are 1400 people on this list, it is obvious IOS 
is accessible. I simply received the iPod Touch as a gift and after help 
with the initial setup and running a Google search for the manual, I was 
quickly on my way. I of course then found this list and the AppleVis website 
and learning curve over. Of course I may need help in the future, but I'm 
pretty confident I can figure out most things if someone else was able to do 
so too. The apple platform is used by children and by seniors, it is very 
simple due to it's consistent and predictable structure, and this is the 
case by intent. I guess my point is that anyone, absolutely anyone can 
master this thing and quite quickly regardless of level of vision, age, etc.

 Hi jordan,
 
 The folders are exactly aligned in the rows and columns. I find it 
 much easier to move a folder next to an app I want to put in it then 
 the other way around. If you move an app and you accidently let go in 
 the wrong spot you may put it into another folder or create a new one. 
 If you move a folder you can really go with the little beeps as to how 
 many spots you moved it left, right, up or down. Hence if I have an 
 app in the very right place in row 4 and I want to move that into a 
 folder that sits in row 2 and column 2 (second from the left edge) 
 then I move the folder into row 4 column 4 which means into the 
 position the app is in, this will push the app into column 3 on row 4 
 which means it will be just to the left of the folder. I would simply 
 double tap and hold the folder, then drag it straight right 2 beeps 
 which means it's now in column 4 on row 2, then I drag it straight 
 down 2 beeps. Now I look for the app to the left of the folder, I 
 double tap and hold on it and drag it to the right just a bit until it
 says it's on the folder, then let go. Now I can drag the folder back to
 where I want it.
 
 This primarily is only a matter of practice and as long as you have 
 good special awareness and are able to drag your finger straight 
 across a row or straight up or down you'll get better at it. What will 
 make it more unpredictable is if you have problems with the 
 directions, e.g. you think you are dragging your finger straight 
 across row 2, for example, but in fact you are dragging it across and down
 or across and up.

Re: Moving apps into folders?

[Carol Pearson]

Hi all,

I was pleased to discover recently that actually I could simply go on moving 
apps and didn't need to press the home key, provided I listened to the prompts 
which VO  gives me. I always used to press the home button after I had moved a 
program, just in case I lost it.

Another thing I have found helpful, if I didn't want to move items from the 
dock, has been to ensure that there have been two or three free spaces on my 
home page. This has made moving programs onto my homepage much easier. I have 
then been able to rearrange them and eventually move the last one carefully 
interposition.

Sometime ago someone did suggest that it was a good idea to free up one of the 
doc positions and place a folder there that you wish to move. This works well, 
especially if you want to move a program from say page 6 to the first page.

Having said all this, it can sometimes still be difficult to get a program just 
where you want it! However, it's always a good thing to have something to play 
around with when you're on a bus or Are waiting to see the dentist!

 One suggestion which might work if Apple would do it is double tap and hold

 it would bypass the double tap on the app to delete it. So in my suggestion 
 if you triple tap an app it will market for moving. Then you can find the 
 Square or the page you want to move it to and do a triple tap on that new 
 location and the app would be dragged there instantly. I personally don't 
 have any issues with the way it works now, but I also understand that it can 
 be difficult for some people to master or get comfortable with.

RE: Moving apps into folders?

[Rose Combs]

It works, but I generally move one app out of the dock, let's say for
example I go to page 6 where New Stand is generally located alone for me.  I
move music to that page, anywhere  and leave the dock space 4 open.  Then I
go to pages where I want to move an app from, move it to the dock, then go
to the page where I want it to be and move it out of the dock to either the
folder or empty space.  I have found that it works faster for me and I
showed a sighted coworker how to do that by talking her through it and she
thought it was great to get newsstand and weather which she would never use
off her home screen.  

Eventually I go back to page six and move the music app bak into its normal
doc space,, it is, for me easiest to use the doc 4 space for this activity,
although I have also moves Safari away to another empty space and used the
third space in the dock for moving apps around.  

The problem I had by putting all my navigation apps in one folder was that
every screen except the home screen seemed to have missing or blank spaces
and I was just too tired and frustrated to move every other app to let's say
decrease my pages from 4 and a half to 3.  It still takes time and of late I
have not had patience with anything that takes hours instead of minutes to
accomplish.  

Goes with the current territory of outside stressors.

I too had this problem, but with a little patience I learned to quickly,
easily, and reliably move my apps around on the current homepage and between
homepages. Here's the secret. :)

Let's say you want to move an app from HomePage#2 back to HOmepage#1.
1. While on HomePage #2, swipe until you locate the app you want to move.
2. Once you have located the app of interest, take your finger off of the
app 3. from the right edge of your iPod touch or iPhone, double tap and hold
on the screen. You will get the moving xApp prompt. Make sure you hear the
name of the app you want to move.
4. with a sliding motion, move your index finger all the way to the left
edge of the device's screen. Pause for a second. Do not, absolutely do not
lift your finger off of the screen or allow your finger to slide off of the
screen as this will kill the process.
5. While holding your finger on the left edge of the screen, you will
eventually get the following prompt: Pause for page change. Make absolutely
certain you hear Home, Page X of Y. If you hear anything else then you've
made a mistake, so start all over from step 3 above.
6. When you complete this process successfully you will hear the page change
prompt with a little beep tone and a mention of the current location of your
app (e.g. Row 2 column 1).
7. Move your finger down towards bottom of the screen to the last row of
apps. Finally, lift your finger to drop the app.
Note: in this step, something happens on the screen where the location of
apps on the screen is thrown off. As specified in this step, my solution has
been to drop the app somewhere in last row so I don't destroy the structure
of my HOmePage. I then make refinements as noted in step 9 below.
8. The following is kind of important. You now need to press the home button
once to return homepage back to normal. This step will prevent you from
accidentally deleting an app.
9. repeat steps 1 through step 3 to if you would like to further customize
the location of the app you just moved to HomePage#1. Don't forget to press
your home button a single time when you have finished moving any app.

To move an app into a folder, it is a matter of moving the app around until
you find the folder using a trial and error procedure until you hear the
prompt On X folder. This prompt will be accompanied by a repetitive tone
to catch your attention. Once you hear the prompt and tone, simply lift your
finger and the app will be placed in the desired folder. You can repeat this
process to move an app out of a folder; I simply listen for the triple tone
then move my finger down about an inch to insure I'm moving outside the
folder. Again, lift your finger to drop the app on to the HOmePage.

Please let me know if this doesn't work, and I'll try to help. I just tested
this procedure many times, and it has worked every single time.
For me, its actually much easier to create many folders on my HomePage
rather than moving between HOmePages. Most of the time I simply use Siri to
launch my apps. I simply say the following: Launch light detector Launch
App Store etc.

 A folder will hold twelve apps. Also, sometimes VO will simply tell

Re: Moving apps into folders?

[Lauren Simmons]

I ran the following 2 minute Google search:
how many apps can you put in a folder on the iPhone 4S

This is the answer I received:
Finding the single app you want to use on your iPhone 4S among apps
spread out over 11 screens is a daunting task. But Apple felt your
pain, and with iOS 4, the company introduced a handy organization tool
called Folders. The Folders feature enables you to create folder
icons, each holding up to a dozen apps. You can create folders for
social apps, photography, travel, and any number of other categories:

You can drag apps into and out of any folder as long as there’s room
for them — you can have no more than 12 apps in a folder. But your
iPhone can have as many as 180 folders, with a total of 2,160 apps. If
you drag all the apps outside a folder, it automatically disappears.

 Subject: RE: Moving apps into folders?

 Hi jordan,

 The folders are exactly aligned in the rows and columns. I find it much
 easier to move a folder next to an app I want to put in it then the other
 way around. If you move an app and you accidently let go in the wrong
 spot
 you may put it into another folder or create a new one. If you move a
 folder
 you can really go with the little beeps as to how many spots you moved it
 left, right, up or down. Hence if I have an app in the very right place
 in
 row 4 and I want to move that into a folder that sits in row 2 and column
 2
 (second from the left edge) then I move the folder into row 4 column 4
 which
 means into the position the app is in, this will push the app into column
 3
 on row 4 which means it will be just to the left of the folder. I would
 simply double tap and hold the folder, then drag it straight right 2
 beeps
 which means it's now in column 4 on row 2, then I drag it straight down 2
 beeps. Now I look for the app to the left of the folder, I double tap and
 hold on it and drag it to the right just a bit until it says it's on the
 folder, then let go. Now I can drag the folder back to where I want it.

 This primarily is only a matter of practice and as long as you have good
 special awareness and are able to drag your finger straight across a row
 or
 straight up or down you'll get better at it. What will make it more
 unpredictable is if you have problems with the directions, e.g. you think
 you are dragging your finger straight across row 2, for example, but in
 fact
 you are dragging it across and down or across and up.

 A folder will hold twelve apps. Also, sometimes VO will simply tell you
 which row and column you're on, so be sure to note where the folder's
 coordinates are. VO will sound a series of tones when you're sitting on a
 folder. You can pause there until the folder opens.

12 apps per folder on the iPhone 4S. I think you'd have to jail break to 
get more than 12 apps per folder on the iPhone 4S.

Re: Moving apps into folders?

[Raul A. Gallegos]

Hi, the limit is 12 apps per folder in an iPhone 4S and older. I believe 
that the limit is 16 apps per folder in an iPhone 5 or any iPad.


If you want to bypass this limitation, you can jailbreak and get a tweak 
like Springtomize which has this feature.

Re: Moving apps into folders?

I thought folders held 12 apps on the 4S and earlier, while folders on 
the 5 held 16 apps. That's why I didn't give an amount in my post since 
I didn't know what iPhone the questioner had.

RE: Moving apps into folders?

[Sieghard Weitzel]

Hi jordan,

The folders are exactly aligned in the rows and columns. I find it much
easier to move a folder next to an app I want to put in it then the other
way around. If you move an app and you accidently let go in the wrong spot
you may put it into another folder or create a new one. If you move a folder
you can really go with the little beeps as to how many spots you moved it
left, right, up or down. Hence if I have an app in the very right place in
row 4 and I want to move that into a folder that sits in row 2 and column 2
(second from the left edge) then I move the folder into row 4 column 4 which
means into the position the app is in, this will push the app into column 3
on row 4 which means it will be just to the left of the folder. I would
simply double tap and hold the folder, then drag it straight right 2 beeps
which means it's now in column 4 on row 2, then I drag it straight down 2
beeps. Now I look for the app to the left of the folder, I double tap and
hold on it and drag it to the right just a bit until it says it's on the
folder, then let go. Now I can drag the folder back to where I want it.

This primarily is only a matter of practice and as long as you have good
special awareness and are able to drag your finger straight across a row or
straight up or down you'll get better at it. What will make it more
unpredictable is if you have problems with the directions, e.g. you think
you are dragging your finger straight across row 2, for example, but in fact
you are dragging it across and down or across and up.

A folder will hold twelve apps. Also, sometimes VO will simply tell you 
which row and column you're on, so be sure to note where the folder's 
coordinates are. VO will sound a series of tones when you're sitting on a 
folder. You can pause there until the folder opens.

I mispoke. IOS 6 allows for 16 apps per folder on the iPhone 5.

Hi jordan,

The folders are exactly aligned in the rows and columns. I find it much
easier to move a folder next to an app I want to put in it then the other
way around. If you move an app and you accidently let go in the wrong spot
you may put it into another folder or create a new one. If you move a folder
you can really go with the little beeps as to how many spots you moved it
left, right, up or down. Hence if I have an app in the very right place in
row 4 and I want to move that into a folder that sits in row 2 and column 2
(second from the left edge) then I move the folder into row 4 column 4 which
means into the position the app is in, this will push the app into column 3
on row 4 which means it will be just to the left of the folder. I would
simply double tap and hold the folder, then drag it straight right 2 beeps
which means it's now in column 4 on row 2, then I drag it straight down 2
beeps. Now I look for the app to the left of the folder, I double tap and
hold on it and drag it to the right just a bit until it says it's on the
folder, then let go. Now I can drag the folder back to where I want it.

This primarily is only a matter of practice and as long as you have good
special awareness and are able to drag your finger straight across a row or
straight up or down you'll get better at it. What will make it more
unpredictable is if you have problems with the directions, e.g. you think
you are dragging your finger straight across row 2, for example, but in fact
you are dragging it across and down or across and up.



Regards,
Sieghard
