It isn’t something new.  It’s on my iPhone 4 that still uses iOS 7.1.2.

I also didn’t know, but just found out, that if you touch the home screen with 
three fingers, you are given the location of the highlighted application in 
terms of rows and columns. Very nice.

Hi Niel,

I just touched the home screen with three fingers and in deed did it locate the 
highlighted  application in terms of rows and colinms  and this is a nice 
feature. Take care.
