Organizing Apps

1. Moving apps - Press and hold an app to make them all shake, then drag them to another place on the screen to rearrange them. The other apps will politely move out of the way to make space for your new app.
2. Organizing Apps - iPad apps can be organized into folders. In iOS 8, you can have as many apps you like in one folder. To create a folder, press and hold an app to make them all shake, then drag one app on top of another app and pause for a second or two until you see the folder appear. Rename the folder by tapping the "x" next to the default title, and adding your own. Press the Home button to save your selections.

3. Deleting Apps - To delete an app on your iPad, press and hold an app to make them all shake. Then, tap the 'x' in the top left hand corner of the app, and tap Delete to confirm you want to delete the apps. There are some apps that do not have an 'x', these are default apps supplied by Apple. You cannot delete these. When you are done, press the Home button to save your selections.

4. Searching for Apps - To search for an app, put a finger on the middle of a home screen and pull down. This reveals the Spotlight Search at the top of the screen. Type the name of the app you are looking for. When you see the app you want, tap on it to open it.

Requesting Apps
Buildings will need to work together to determine what apps will be requested for district iPads. Please use the following links for procedures and requests.

Best Practices for iPad Care:
