Hi List,
I'm using an iPhone 8 running iOS 12.4.2 and will be the first to admit that I really don't use folders. I'm familiar with the iPhone editing process but while attempting to move an app from one page to another, I mistakenly dropped it onto another app on the incorrect page and iOS automatically created a new folder which I think it named using the tagged category of the app I was moving and now I have 2 apps in this unwanted folder. First, if there is a better way to move an app than double tapping and holding followed by dragging and releasing to the desired location, I'd love to hear about it. When I attempted this, Voiceover gave me no feedback on which page I was on. As I only had one location to which I was attempting to move the app, not knowing the page I was on sort of made the move operation doomed to failure. I have 14 pages of apps and all pages are full except for the last one. I need to confirm the best method to remove the moved app from the unwanted folder which I'm hoping will simultaneously delete the folder when it's left with only one app in it. I expect I'll have to open the folder, place focus on the app I wish to move, single finger swipe down to start edit mode then double tap and hold the app to move followed by dragging it to the desired location. As I mentioned previously, I'd love to be able to tell iOS on what page to place this moved app but I think I'll only have the option to drag and drop it. Any guidance on the best approach will be greatly appreciated as I'm not expecting my next attempt to drag and drop to go much better. After the unwanted folder only has one app remaining in it, will I also need to drag and drop that app somewhere using the procedures just described in order for the folder to disappear? Thanks in advance for any assistance. I know this has been discussed ad infinitum here but as I don't use folders, I've not paid attention to those posts.
