After you upgrade to iOS 14 some new features are added to your device. One of these features is something called the App Library. If you scroll all the way to the right on your Home screens you will see all of your apps organized into a series of folders. Any new app that you install will be added to this library. Some people prefer this new organizational model, while others liked the old way that the iPhone sorted apps. If you are finding that your newly installed apps are not being added to one of your Home screens, and are only appearing in the App Library, then you may be wondering if you can adjust that setting. Our guide below will show you how to restore the previous setting so that newly installed apps are also added to the Home screen on an iPhone 11.
