Just got my first iPhone, it's an iPhone 13, and having trouble with my home screen. Whenever I move a single apps icon, all the other apps icons rearrange themselves. How do I prevent this from happening?
Any help is much appreciated.
iPhone 13, iOS 16
Hello lyle132
Unfortunately, it is not possible to prevent the other apps from moving if you move an app icon.
This is how the home screen in iOS is structured.
Alternatively, you can use the App Library to manage your apps, instead of having to build the home screen yourself.

You're welcome.
There are some "ninja tricks" you can use if you want your apps to appear in a certain way on your Home Screen. Maybe you only want apps on the bottom lines - then you can fill spaces you don't want app icons on with blank icons.
Search Google for "blank app icons ios" maybe it can be the solution for you.
That's a bummer. Wish I knew that before buying the phone. Thanks for the fast and detail reply!
Looked it up and sadly I use photos as my background, hence, why I want to arrange the apps icons a curtain way on the home screen.
Thanks again for the help!
How do I stop my apps from rearranging themselves when I move one of them.
