使用(Use)iPhone 一段时间,您最终会看到跨越多个主(Home)屏幕页面的大量图标。这不仅使一切看起来很混乱,而且访问或定位某些应用程序也变得很麻烦。您推迟管理主(Home)屏幕的时间越长,情况就越糟。
幸运的是,你的 iPhone 的主(Home)屏幕页面并不是它们看起来那样僵硬的图标网格。您可以四处移动应用程序,将它们组织到文件夹中,将图标放入应用程序库(App Library),以及做许多其他事情来为混乱带来秩序。
如果您对 iPhone 比较陌生,那么这里是控制主(Home)屏幕的最佳方法。长期用户还可以挑选一两个有趣的花絮。
1.重新排列应用程序(1. Rearrange Apps)
您的 iPhone 允许您将应用程序图标移动到主(Home)屏幕网格样式布局中的任何位置。最好利用这一点并重新排列图标,以帮助您更快地找到它们。例如,您可以将更常用(apps that you use more often)的应用程序移到页面底部。
但首先,您必须进入微动模式。最快的方法是点击并按住 iPhone主(Home)屏幕中的空白区域。或者,长按任意图标,然后选择编辑主屏幕(Edit Home Screen)。
一旦屏幕上的一切都开始晃动,您就可以移动应用程序了。以下是如何做到这一点:
- 将(Move)应用程序移到右侧或下方的一行— 将(— Drag)图标拖放到您希望它占据的位置的右侧。(right )
- 将(Move)应用程序移到左侧或上方的一行— 将(— Drag)图标拖放到您希望它占据的位置的左侧。(left )
您还可以在 iPhone主(Home)屏幕页面之间移动应用程序图标。将其拖到屏幕边缘,您的 iPhone 会自动切换到相邻页面。然后,继续将其拖动到您想要的位置并松开手指。
由于第一个主(Home)屏幕页面包含您可能几乎不会使用的库存应用程序,因此请考虑将它们替换为其他页面中的应用程序。
为方便起见,您可以同时移动两个或更多应用程序。按住一个图标,然后用另一根手指点击其他应用程序。它们应该堆叠在第一个图标上。然后,您可以将它们全部拖到您想要的位置。
最后,别忘了 i Phone的Dock。您可以替换其中的任何四个默认应用程序(电话(Phone)、Safari、消息(Messages)和音乐(Music))。但是,您必须先从Dock(Dock)中拖出一个图标以腾出空间,然后才能将另一个图标放入其中。
要退出微动模式,请点击屏幕右上角的完成。(Done)
2. 文件夹中的组应用程序(2. Group Apps in Folders)
花时间创建几个文件夹可以帮助您以任何您想要的方式对应用程序进行分组。您可能已经在 iPhone 上看到了一些预先构建的文件夹,但这里是创建自己的文件夹的方法。
进入(Enter)微动模式,然后将一个应用程序拖到另一个应用程序上并按住一秒钟。这应该立即创建一个文件夹,其中包含两个应用程序。
根据这两个应用程序,您的 iPhone 可能会自动为文件夹创建一个相关名称。您可以将其更改为您想要的任何内容。
然后,您可以开始将应用程序拖到文件夹中。就像(Just)iPhone 的主(Home)屏幕一样,一个文件夹可以有多个页面,因此您可以放入任意数量的应用程序。
要删除文件夹,请将所有应用程序拉出。与应用程序图标类似,您也可以在主(Home)屏幕上 移动文件夹。
3.移动到应用程序库(3. Move to App Library)
App Library,您可以通过从最终的主屏幕页面向左滑动来调出,在几个预定义的类别(实用程序、(Home)社交(Social)、创意(Creativity)等)中列出了 iPhone 上的每个应用程序。它还可以帮助您消除 iPhone主(Home)屏幕上的大量杂乱。
首先长按任何应用程序图标。在上下文菜单上,点击删除应用程序(Remove App)。然后,您可以选择仅从主(Home)屏幕中将其删除,而不是删除该应用程序。选择移动到应用程序库(Move to App Library)或从主屏幕(Remove From Home Screen)中删除(显示某些本机应用程序)来执行此操作。
您可以通过访问应用程序库(App Library)来访问以这种方式删除的应用程序。或者,您可以使用 iPhone 上的搜索功能(在(Search)主(Home)屏幕上向下滑动)来找到它们。
也可以在不显示在主(Home)屏幕上的情况下安装新应用程序。为此,请打开 iPhone 的设置(Settings)应用程序,点击主屏幕(Home Screen),然后选择仅应用程序库(App Library Only)。
也就是说,您可以随时将任何应用程序添加回主(Home)屏幕。在应用程序库(App Library)中找到该应用程序,长按它,然后点击添加到主屏幕(Add to Home Screen)。
如果您在 iPhone 上找不到App Library,则必须将其更新到iOS 14 或更高版本(iOS 14 or later)。
4. 堆叠多个小部件(4. Stack Multiple Widgets)
您的 iPhone 允许您将小部件添加到主(Home)屏幕。您可以通过访问小部件库来做到这一点(在微动模式下点击屏幕左上角的+也可以将小部件从今日视图(Today View)推送到主(Home)屏幕,反之亦然。就像(Just)应用程序图标一样,您也可以在主(Home)屏幕页面内或之间移动它们。
但是,添加多个小部件会很快使主(Home)屏幕混乱。这就是小部件堆叠可以帮助您节省屏幕空间的地方。只需(Simply)将任何类似大小的小部件拖到另一个上并释放以堆叠它们。
您最多可以将 10 个小部件添加到单个堆栈中。然后,向上或向下滑动以循环浏览小部件。堆栈还将根据使用模式自动旋转小部件。
如果要编辑小部件堆栈,请长按它并选择Edit Stack。然后,您可以通过向左滑动来更改堆栈的顺序或删除不必要的小部件。
或者,您可以从小部件库插入一个称为智能堆栈(Smart Stack)的预构建小部件堆栈。
5.隐藏主屏幕页面(5. Hide Home Screen Pages)
你(Did)知道你可以在你的 iPhone 上隐藏整个主(Home)屏幕页面吗?这是快速淡化凌乱的主(Home)屏幕的好方法,尤其是当您有多个页面中包含非必要应用程序时。
进入微动模式并点击Dock上方的圆点条(strip of dots)。然后,取消选中要隐藏的页面。
您可以按您想要的任何顺序隐藏页面,但 iOS 会强制您至少保留一页。点击完成(Done)以保存您的更改。
如果您想在隐藏的主(Home)屏幕页面中打开应用程序,只需使用应用程序库(App Library)或 iPhone 的搜索(Search)功能。
6.使用应用建议小部件(6. Use App Suggestions Widget)
App Suggestions是一个使用机器学习(machine learning)自动显示相关应用程序的Siri小部件。
前往小部件库,点击Siri 建议(Siri Suggestions),选择应用建议(App Suggestions),然后点击添加小部件(Add Widget )以添加一个。与其他小部件不同,应用建议(App Suggestions)会在您退出微动模式后与主(Home)屏幕的其余图标合并。
由于App Suggestions小部件可让您快速访问最常用的应用程序,因此您可以减少常用的应用程序图标并将 iPhone主(Home)屏幕页面保持在最低限度。您还可以添加(或堆叠)多个应用建议(App Suggestions)小部件。
iPhone 管理器(iPhone Manager)
时不时地花几分钟来管理主(Home)屏幕应该可以让 iPhone 更容易导航。不要(Don)忘记结合以上所有方法来创建真正适合您的个人空间。
6 Best Ways to Manage Your iPhone Home Screen
Uѕe аn iPhone for a while, and you will end up with loadѕ of icons spanning multiple Home screen pages. Nоt only does that make everything look messy, but reaching or locating certain apps also becomes a chore. It gets worse the longer you put off managіng the Homе screen.
Luckily, your iPhone’s Home screen pages aren’t the inflexible grids of icons that they appear to be. You can move apps around, organize them into folders, chuck icons into the App Library, and do a host of other things to bring order to the chaos.
If you’re relatively new to the iPhone, then here are the best ways to get the Home screen under control. Long-time users can also pick up an interesting tidbit or two.
1. Rearrange Apps
Your iPhone lets you move app icons to any position within the Home screen’s grid-style layout. It’s best to take advantage of that and rearrange the icons in a way that helps you reach them faster. For example, you can move apps that you use more often to the bottom of a page.
But first, you must enter jiggle mode. The fastest way to do that is to tap and hold a vacant area within the iPhone’s Home screen. Or, long-press any icon, and then select Edit Home Screen.
Once everything on the screen starts to shake, you can move apps around. Here’s how to do that:
- Move an app to the right or a row below — Drag and drop the icon to the right of the position you want it to occupy.
- Move an app to the left or a row above — Drag and drop the icon to the left of the position you want it to occupy.
You can also move an app icon between iPhone Home screen pages. Drag it to the edge of the screen, and your iPhone will automatically switch to the adjacent page. Then, continue to drag it to the position that you want and release your finger.
Since the first Home screen page consists of stock apps that you may hardly ever use, consider replacing them with apps from other pages.
To make things easier, you can move two or more apps at the same time. Press and hold an icon and use another finger to tap on other apps. They should stack over the first icon. You can then drag all of them into the location that you want.
Finally, don’t forget the iPhone’s Dock. You can replace any of the four default apps (Phone, Safari, Messages, and Music) within it. However, you must first drag out an icon from the Dock to make room before bringing another inside.
To exit jiggle mode, tap Done to the top right of the screen.
2. Group Apps in Folders
Taking the time to create a few folders can help you group apps in any manner that you want. You may already see a few pre-built folders on your iPhone, but here’s how to create your own.
Enter jiggle mode, and then drag an app over another and hold for a second. That should immediately create a folder with both apps inside it.
Depending on the two apps, your iPhone may automatically create a relevant name for the folder. You can change it to whatever you want.
You can then start dragging apps into the folder. Just like the iPhone Home screen, a folder can have multiple pages, so you can put in as many apps as you want.
To delete a folder, pull all apps out of it. Similar to app icons, you can also move folders around the Home screen.
3. Move to App Library
The App Library, which you can bring up by swiping to the left from the final Home screen page, lists every app on your iPhone in several predefined categories (Utilities, Social, Creativity, etc.). It also helps you eliminate a lot of clutter from your iPhone’s Home screen.
Start by long-pressing any app icon. On the context menu, tap Remove App. Rather than deleting the app, you can then choose to remove it only from the Home screen. Select Move to App Library or Remove From Home Screen (which shows up for certain native apps) to do that.
You can access apps that you remove this way by visiting the App Library. Alternatively, you can use the Search functionality (swipe down on the Home screen) on your iPhone to get to them.
It’s also possible to install new apps without having them show up on the Home screen. To do that, open the iPhone’s Settings app, tap Home Screen, and then select App Library Only.
That said, you can add any app back to the Home screen whenever you want. Locate the app within the App Library, long-press it, and then tap Add to Home Screen.
If you can’t locate the App Library on your iPhone, you must update it to iOS 14 or later.
4. Stack Multiple Widgets
Your iPhone lets you add widgets to the Home screen. You can do that by accessing the widgets gallery (tap + to the top left of the screen in jiggle mode). It’s also possible to push widgets out of Today View into the Home screen and vice versa. Just like app icons, you can move them within or between Home screen pages as well.
However, adding multiple widgets can quickly clutter up a Home screen. That’s where widget stacking helps you conserve screen real estate. Simply drag any similarly-sized widget over another and release to stack them.
You can add up to 10 widgets to a single stack. Then, swipe up or down to cycle through the widgets. A stack will also automatically rotate widgets based on usage patterns.
If you want to edit a widget stack, long-press it and select Edit Stack. You can then change the order of the stack or remove unnecessary widgets by swiping to the left.
Alternatively, you can insert a pre-built stack of widgets called the Smart Stack from the widgets gallery.
5. Hide Home Screen Pages
Did you know that you could hide entire Home screen pages on your iPhone? It’s a great way to tone down an untidy Home screen quickly, especially if you have several pages with non-essential apps in them.
Enter jiggle mode and tap the strip of dots above the Dock. Then, uncheck the pages that you want to hide.
You can hide pages in any order you want, but iOS forces you to keep at least one page remaining. Tap Done to save your changes.
If you want to open an app inside a hidden Home screen page, just use the App Library or the iPhone’s Search functionality.
6. Use App Suggestions Widget
App Suggestions is a Siri widget that automatically displays relevant apps using machine learning.
Head over to the widgets gallery, tap Siri Suggestions, select App Suggestions, and then tap Add Widget to add one. Unlike other widgets, App Suggestions merges with the rest of the Home screen icons once you exit jiggle mode.
Since an App Suggestions widget lets you have quick access to the apps that you use the most, you can cut down the usual app icons and keep your iPhone Home screen pages to a minimum. You can also add (or stack) multiple App Suggestions widgets.
iPhone Manager
Spending a couple of minutes now and then to manage the Home screen should allow for an iPhone that’s far easier to navigate. Don’t forget to combine all the methods above to create a personal space that truly works for you.
