Switch back to Safari and use ‘Add to Home Screen’ as many times extra as needed – you’ll quickly get the hang of it. Now, you’ll have your own ideas for layout – if you wanted to copy what I’ve done and have an entire blank row then you’ll obviously need four blank icons. Drag it to your desired home screen (usually the first one, if you’re copying my example), into position, and then tap on ‘Done’!.Long press on any of your icons and tap on ‘Rearrange Apps’ to set things jiggling and also see the blank icon for real (with a ‘remove’ cross in its corner’) – you’ll get the idea if I do the same on my main example – see the blanks I’m using?: At the end of your real app icons on your last home screen, you’ve now got an ‘invisible’ entry.Tap on ‘Add’ at the top right of the screen: You’ll see the black icon shape and a blank ‘name’ in the top field.Swipe up until you see ‘Add to Home Screen’ and tap this:.Open up the link and then tap on the ‘Share’ icon in the middle of your iPhone’s Safari toolbar:.Hyperlinked in case you’re reading this in Safari and want to open it in a new tab, etc. How to Add Blank Icons on iPhone Home Screen (‘Favicons’ are the little logos that appear in desktop browsers on the left of the URL bar.)

Much simpler, at least while playing with the idea, is to go ‘all black’ and feel your way into where you’d like the gaps! ![]() If you’re particularly inclined towards a fancier wallpaper then you can still make progress, by the way. A couple of years ago we linked to an Internet page offering custom dummy icons for specific spots in an uploaded wallpaper of your choice and this system still works, but it’s way, way fiddlier, and you have to have your layout all worked out ahead of time. Sounds dull, but on the iPhones that have an AMOLED screen in particular, the ‘infinite black’ background actually looks stunning. Is there a catch?

Aside from icons reshuffling when you move, install or remove an application, it’s overload for the eyes, I contend. everything huddles together and sticks to the top of a page.
