Did you know that it is possible to move multiple apps at the same time on the home screen of your iPad, but also of your iPhone? Drag & Drop is an option that is primarily intended for the iPad; With this functionality it is possible to drag photos, texts, files and more from one app to another.
Drag & Drop is also available on the iPhone, only in a limited shape. For example, you can copy text and drag to another place within an app, but not to another app. In addition, you can easily move multiple apps on the home screen on an iPhone, just like on an iPad.
Move multiple apps at the same time on iPhone or iPad
- Put your finger on an app
- Keep your finger on the app until it starts wiggling
- Let go and then drag an app that you want to move
- Stop dragging and leave your finger on the screen
- With another finger, tap the other apps that you want to move
The apps that you now tap are added to the app with which you started dragging. Once you have chosen all the apps, you can drag the drag and place all apps on a new place or page. Unfortunately, it is not possible to move one or more folders in this way.
Drag & Drop on an iPad
The iPad also has drag & drop, this works very easily. Activate the screen and put your finger on texts, photos and files and then drag them from one app to the other app or place. This function is specially tailored to the large iPad Multi-Touch display in combination with multitasking for iPad. Apple says that you can drag just about everything you see on the screen. It requires some practice, but then the benefits are great.
