Organizing with folders

You can use folders to organize icons on the Home screen. You can put up to 20 icons in a folder. iPad automatically names a folder when you create it, based on the icons you use to create the folder, but you can change the name. Rearrange folders by dragging them on the Home screen or by moving them to a new Home screen or to the Dock.

Create a folder: Touch and hold an icon until the Home screen icons begin to jiggle, then drag the icon onto another icon.

iPad creates a new folder that includes the two icons, and shows the folder’s name. You can tap the name field to enter a different name.

Many apps, such as Mail and the App Store, display an alert badge on their Home screen icon with a number (to indicate incoming items) or an exclamation mark (to indicate a problem). If the app is in a folder, the badge appears on the folder as well. A numbered badge shows the total number of items you haven’t attended to, such as incoming mail messages and updated apps to download. An alert badge indicates a problem with the app.
