Apple is reportedly planning to give iPhone users more control over the layout of apps on the home screen. From iOS 18 it should be possible to place apps in the desired location and leave space between apps empty. This is not yet officially possible.
MacRumors reports based on insiders that iPhone users will be able to arrange the app icons on the home screen more freely with the arrival of iOS 18. It would, among other things, be possible to fill in empty spaces. , rows or columns between the app icons. So far, apps are automatically placed in the next empty spot. It is not possible to leave space between apps.
Bloomberg journalist Mark Gurman said last week that the iPhone's home screen will become more customizable from iOS 18. With the help of external apps, it is already possible to create empty spaces between app icons on the home screen, by placing invisible app icons between the real icons.
The official function will probably have to wait a few months. Apple is expected to announce the iOS 18 upgrade during WWDC in June, but the official release won't appear until alongside the iPhone 16 series in or around September. Among other things, Apple is said to be planning to bring AI functions to the iPhone.
