Is it possible to replicate the home screens from an ipad to an iphone?

is it possible to replicate the home screens from an ipad to an iphone?

Not really, as the iPad has more screen real estate & can thus show more icons, 24 vs 20 for the iPhone.

  • Newsstand suppresses the home screen from the app switcher view when the home button is pressed?

    Newsstand suppresses the home screen from the app switcher view when the home button is pressed.
    Has anyone else seen this before, I needed to lock and unlock iPad to get back to the home screen.

    Aloha Ethan. Fortunately it's working as designed, but you'd never believe how many people wanted to argue with me smply because it worked differently. Can't please everybody I guess.  Bob. 

  • Is there a Siri command to get to the home screen from the lock screen?

    Here is the situation - an elderly friend of mine (94 years old) was in a panic because there were text messages on the lock screen and try as he might he could not "slide to open."
    He has no passcode set.
    Anyway, I had him try this and it worked:
    1. Use Siri to "open calendar."
    2. After it opened, press the Home button to get to the home screen.
    That way he was able to get in.
    Is there a Siri command to go directly to the Home Screen from the lock screen? I tried various things I could think of, but couldn't figure out anything that worked.
    What would be best is being able to bypass the lock screen altogether. I have another elderly friend who is blind and it is a source of constant confusion for him.
    As for voiceover - he is finding it impossible to figure out. I can see, and I am also finding it impossible to figure out. We tried to use it to get into the TED app and select, play and stop videos and all sorts of weird UI elements starting popping up and it was frustrating him so we turned voiceover off. But that's for another discussion thread.
    In the meantime, is there an easy way to get home if somebody is having trouble sliding?
    Thanks,

    Yes, that can sometimes be true.
    Unless your older but sighted friend has difficulty with fine motor movements, I suspect that the slide to open is a matter of practice. If you can convice your friend that they are capable of learning it and get them to work with it a bit that might help. I've found that older learners can become frustrated very quickly with technology. They either have themselves convinced they can't learn technolgy or that get annoyed because iPhones are supposed to be "intuative". The challenge is getting them to feel okay about being a beginner at something.
    You're a good friend to take on this teaching task.
    Best of luck.

  • App is on phone but want it back on the home screen from which it disappeared.

    I had an app on my phone's home screen but it disappeared.  I want it on my home screen.  When I do a search it shows that I already have that app and I do not know how to get it back on my home screen.  I did a reset. It's still not there.

    It is for a tv station and when I type the tv station in the search box it shows up along with a lot of other information such as people in my contact list.  When I hold my finger on the actual app picture, it opens it up to the news, weather, etc. on the station.

  • Is it possible to transfer my calendar (events) from my IPad to my IPhone

    Yes, you can sync using computer iTunes, or switch iCloud to ON on both devices using the same Apple ID.

  • Is there a way to password protect folders on the home screen of my IPad 2??

    I created folders on my IPad 2 and I wanted to know if I can password protect them?  Any information would be appreciated...

    You can not password protect individual folders, sorry.  You can password protect your iPad, so someone else can't just turn it on and use it without the password, but not for specific folders.

  • When you delete an app from your homescreen it is still in the cloud, does that mean you still have the app, and how do you get it back on to the home screen

    When you delete an app from your homescreen it is still in the cloud, does that mean you still have the app, and how do you get it back on to the home screen. new to ipad so do not know much. Anybody know.p

    As long as the app remains in the store then you can re-download it via the Purchased tab in the App Store app, or via the Purchased Link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes : re-downloading.
    Similarly ibooks can be re-downloaded, and depending upon what country that you are in then music, films and tv shows may also be re-downloadable (if they remain available in the store).

  • New portal preview, how to keep an altered query in a chart on the home screen?

    This one has been driving me nuts, here is the situation.... I pin a chart to the "Home" screen from the DefaulfServerFarm hosting plan for CPU, nice hero size, yeah!  I then clone it and then adjust the query to show memory
    on one of them.  Then I adjust the timeline in the queries for week on both to get an aggregate view of days, all good.  As soon as I refresh the portal...!?!?!...both charts are sitting at CPU current day, log out/in same behavior.  Probably
    something silly I'm doing/not doing, anyone have any thoughts or ideas on how to keep chart views in place?  Thanks in advance!
    Jeff

    Here is an example of what I would like to pin to the start, so that every time the preview portal is opened,  the last week's memory and cpu is viewed.  You can do this by adjusting the query on the chart, however the experience is that
    if you logout and log back into the portal you will see only the settings from the chart you copied, and not the updated queries.  Hope that makes sense.  Maybe there is a better way to accomplish this.  Thanks!

  • My iPad keeps reverting to the home screen, both from Safari and Mail. ???

    My iPad keeps reverting to the home screen from Safari and Mail. ???

    Have you tried closing the two apps completely ? From the home screen (i.e. not with Safari or Mail 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari and Mail apps to close them, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Hi My grandparents just bought an iPod Touch for me from Dubai, UAE. I can't see any facetime on the home screen nor in the settings. I've read that it's not possible. But is it possible if I get my OS updated again from India?

    Hi My grandparents just bought an iPod Touch for me from Dubai, UAE. I can't see any facetime on the home screen nor in the settings. I've read that it's not possible. But is it possible if I get my OS updated again from India?

    There is no way you can activate Facetime on an iPod touch purchased in the UAE. The government there required Apple to lock off Facetime at the hardware level and there's no way to unlock it. Reinstalling iOS, regardless of country, will not help. If you want Facetime, you will need to sell your UAE-version iPod and buy one there in India.

  • Is it possible to rename app icons on the home screen?

    When I save an app or bookmark to the home screen, I invariably get the name wrong so that I want to rename it. But I can't find out how to. Is it possible to rename, or do I have to start all over again?
    Thanks

    Delete the bookmark and then re-save it, That's the only way that I have found.

  • Is it possible to make the ipad remain on an app screen rather than reverting to the home screen?

    We have a credit card app on our Ipad2 that we want to remain available for use 24/7; the ipad is encased in a security holder and the 'home' button is not accessible. Therefore, we want the card app to remain as the only thing visible. Unfortunately, the ipad keeps timing out to the home screen which makes all other apps available to everyone. Short of removing all other icons, is there a way to make it stay within the credit card app?
    Thanks

    Apps don't time out.   There is no specific time interval for app usage.  If its going back to the home screen either the home button is being pressed (which you said is not possible) or the App is crashing.
    In which case its something for the developer to look into.
    You can find crash reports under Settings->General->About->Diagnostics and Usage->Diagnostic and Usage Data.
    Other than that, I'm not certain Guided Access will relaunch the App in the event that it crashes, but you may want to look into it.
    Settings->General->Accessibility->Guided Access

  • I want to stream itunes movies I've bought on my ipad air to my lg smart tv.  From the 'Home' screen of the lg, there is no itunes app shown that would somehow let me share info with my ipad air.  Has anyone the answer.  Am I missing something here?

    I have an lg smart TV.  I also just bought an apple ipad air,Wi-Fi Cellular 16GM I've signed up the air to itunes and just purchased a movie on the ipad air.  I was able to stream the movie on my air and my pc, which is of course wirelessly connected to my smart TV.  I've searched the 'Home' screen of the lg to find a way to also stream that movie on the lg.  Am I somehow just not reading right and missing the point, or is what I'm trying to do not possible?

    I have raised this issue with apple support this week too after my Facetime and iMessage stopped working on Saturday.
    Been very interesting to read the ever increasing number of comments and issues being raised on this one (more than 500 views and dozens of replies so far).
    My post is here:
    imessage and Facetime sign in activation error iPad ios8.1.2
    What is especially interesting about your post is that you had your iPad Air replaced in November 2014 in the UK. I bought my iPad Air originally in October 2014, and had to have it replaced in an Apple Store in Bristol in November after the original stopped charging. This does make me wonder if there is a batch of faulty iPads? Mmm...
    I have raised a fully escalated support case with Apple on this, and their latest response is that a 'patch' or fix is being investigated by their engineers and to wait a week or so at which point they might be releasing it to affected users - or even across every users.
    I wish there was a way to get this to Apple's attention and the wider media as well, but I don't know how best to do that.
    I guess the best thing we can do is keep hassling Apple for a response and raising support cases
