Instead, it was just…well, there, whether you actually used it or not.
Thanks to iOS 7, you can now hide the Newsstand app in a home-screen app folder.
No, you still can’t delete the Newsstand app altogether, but hiding it in a rarely used folder is almost as good.
Here’s how…
- Just tap and hold the Newsstand app (in iOS 7, it’s white with little magazine and newspaper images inside); after a second or so, all the apps on your home screen should start doing a little dance.
- Next, either a) drag the Newsstand icon into an existing home-page folder, or b) drag the icon on top of another icon to create a new folder.
- All set? Tap the Home key to save your changes and make all your app icons stop shaking.
