Add spaces between springboard icons without jailbreak

Although in Cydia there are many tweaks that allow us add blanks between icons, having jailbreak is a mandatory requirement to be able to do this. Thanks to a new bug that has been discovered, it is now possible to leave spaces between icons without jailbreak and with the only requirement of having a little patience.

First of all, indicate that this trick works on any device that has iOS 6 installed or any later version. To carry out the process, it is best to watch the video that leads the post, although here are some tips to follow.

Before starting, the last row of icons on the home page must be in this order: application, folder with two applications inside, two applications. It does not matter which applications we use but it is essential to follow this placement.

Now we open the folder and press on an icon until they begin to vibrate. Without releasing, we take one of the applications out of the folder and move it to the fourth icon (the one on the right). Without releasing, we will see that a folder is created but instead of dropping the application there, we remove it again and place it in the folder of origin.

If it went well, now we should have two folders at the bottom of the first page of the springboard: the original with the two applications and a new one with only one application.

The third and final step consists of open the folder that only has one application and press on the icon to start vibrating. We take out the application and place it in the position where we want the blank to appear. As soon as we release the finger, the application will disappear leaving the hole but calm, if we go to the second page of the springboard we will see that it is there.

This process can be repeated as many times as you want to create as many white spaces as you want. Keep in mind that by doing this process, the application that is involved in creating the white space will not be able to return to the first springboard page, so keep this in mind.

To leave everything as it was, all we have to do is restart the device and the blank holes will disappear.
