How to move app icon to another page in iOS simulator


Xcode is placing my app icon on the second page of icons in the iOS simulator. Is there a way to move the app icon to the first page? I've tried click and hold on the icon. It switches to move/delete mode but when I try to move to the left it snaps back.

I'm developing an app extension and having to swipe left twice every time is getting old. Thanks!


Solution

  • You do exactly what you're doing, but maybe more slowly or carefully. This works the same on the simulator as on a device, but doing it with a mouse is a little more fiddly than doing it with a fingertip.

    Edit: This doesn't work any more. I'm leaving this answer up because it was the correct answer to the question when the question was asked.
