I will try this method the next time I need to move an app. I have always thought it were as if something was slugish somehow and wasn't quite following the swiping to get to what I want. By no means is it 100 percent acurate, but I have discovered that if I swipe two selections beyond what I want, then swipe back to it, it usually does what I want. I cannot promise this will work for anybody else, maybe not even me next time.

I agree that it has become increasingly easy to accidentally create a folder, even though I am sure I heard VO indicate that the app would be ready to drop to the left or right of the app I’m on.  In doing some cleanup this week, I found that, if I was really patient and waited for VO to fully finished saying the phrase “drop after blah, blah blah” and gave it one more short pause, my success rate for getting the app where I wanted it was much higher.

I think you should report this to Apple Accessibility because I have had this happen as well quite a lot and I believe it's simply a bug.

All you can do when it happens is take the items out of the folder and try again, it will work eventually.

Subject: moving apps

 

I mostly understand how to move apps around the home screen, to and from the App library, but I do not always get the results I want.

 

I have a row on my home screen that is empty except for one app. I want to place an app to the right of that one lone app on that row. I can’t do it consistently.

 

I sometimes create folders without wanting to do so. VoiceOver announces “Drop App X before (or after) app y, and that’s what I want to do, but when I double-tap, I’ve created a folder. Then I have to drag an app out of the folder to get rid of it.

 

Can anybody shed any light on what I might be missing in all this?
