Customize IPhone

Customize iPhone

Arrange apps. Touch and hold any app on the Home screen until it jiggles, then drag apps around. Drag an app to the edge of the screen to move it to a different Home screen, or to the Dock at the bottom of the screen. Press the Home button to save your arrangement.

Create a new Home screen. While arranging apps, drag an app to the right edge of the last Home screen. The dots above the Dock show how many Home screens you have, and which one you're viewing.

You can also customize the Home screen using iTunes, when iPhone is connected to your computer. In iTunes, select iPhone, then click Apps.

Start over. Go to Settings > General > Reset, then tap Reset Home Screen Layout to return the Home screen and apps to their original layout. Folders are removed and the original wallpaper is restored.

Organize with folders

Create a folder. While arranging apps, drag one app onto another. Tap the name of the folder to rename it. Drag apps to add or remove them. Press the Home button when you finish.

You can have multiple pages of apps in a folder.

Delete a folder. Drag out all the apps-the folder deletes automatically.

Change the wallpaper

Wallpaper settings let you set an image or photo as wallpaper for the Lock screen or Home screen.

Change the wallpaper. Go to Settings > Brightness & Wallpaper.

Adjust the brightness

Dim the screen to extend battery life, or use Auto-Brightness.

Adjust the screen brightness. Go to Settings > Brightness & Wallpaper and drag the slider. If Auto-Brightness is on, iPhone adjusts the screen brightness for current light conditions using the built-in ambient light sensor. You can also adjust the brightness in Control Center.
