How to Remove Recently Added Folder from App Library

Are you struggling to manage the clutter in your App Library? Do you want to remove a recently added folder that you no longer need? If so, you’ve come to the right place. In this article, we will guide you through the process of removing a recently added folder from your App Library on your iPhone or iPad. Whether you’re looking to declutter your library or simply want to remove an app folder that you’ve changed your mind about, we’ve got you covered.

Understanding the App Library

Before we dive into the removal process, it’s important to understand what the App Library is and how it works. The App Library is a feature introduced in iOS 13 that organizes all your apps into a single, searchable location. It helps you easily find and manage your apps, even those you haven’t used in a while. The App Library is divided into two sections: the “Recently Added” section and the “All Apps” section.

The “Recently Added” section displays the folders and apps that you’ve recently added to your library. This section is particularly useful for keeping track of new apps or folders that you’ve recently installed or moved. However, if you find that this section is cluttered or if you want to remove a folder that you’ve added by mistake, follow the steps below to do so.

Removing a Recently Added Folder from App Library

To remove a recently added folder from your App Library, follow these simple steps:

1. Open the App Library by swiping up from the bottom of the screen on your iPhone or iPad.
2. Once you’re in the App Library, tap on the “Recently Added” section to view the folders and apps that you’ve recently added.
3. Find the folder you want to remove and tap on it to open it.
4. Inside the folder, tap on the “Edit” button located in the upper-right corner of the screen.
5. You will now see a red “Delete” button next to each app in the folder. Tap on the “Delete” button next to the folder you want to remove.
6. A confirmation dialog will appear. Tap “Delete” to confirm the removal of the folder.

Additional Tips

– If you want to remove multiple folders at once, you can select multiple folders by tapping on the “Select” button in the upper-left corner of the screen, then tap on the folders you want to delete.
