Once you’ve located the magnifying glass and dots at the bottom of your screen:
-
Tap on either side of the dots to move pages. You don’t need to tap directly on them; just next to them will work fine.
-
If you tap left of the dots from your first Home screen, it will take you to Spotlight search. Otherwise it will take you to the previous Home screen.
- If you tap right of the dots, it will slide to the next Home screen available.
