It's 2026, and I still can't believe Apple won't change the most frustrating thing about iOS (www.techradar.com)

It's baffling that, after nearly 20 years of ios, Apple still won't let you easily place apps where you want them.

I’m baffled as to why Apple still won’t let users simply tap and hold an app and put it wherever they want.

I’m not sure I get the issue? iOS has been able to do this for a while now, I just tested to make sure I’m not going crazy, but I can indeed put an app on an empty page in the middle of the screen. I get the issue with the folders running away from the app you’re trying to drop into it, that is frustrating design, but also the app-shunting behaviour is a non-issue for me, because the apps move back into place once you drag the app past the shunted once.
