Create folders within folders in iOS 7.1 (Tutorial)

A small bug in the new version that Apple has released of its operating system for mobile devices, iOS 7.1, allows the user to host app folders inside other folders easily. This bug already appeared in the first versions of iOS 7 but the company removed it, but it seems that they have been overlooked again and this one continues to work new easy way to create them, as you can see in the video.

Apparently this method too works with older versions, from iOS 7 to iOS 7.1. Being able to have application folders within other iOS folders allows the user a better organization of all the application content that they have on their device and in this way not having to occupy so many pages and space on the Springboard in similar folders. These are the steps to follow to create them:

Folders within folders in iOS 7.1

  •  We create a folder with two applications that are on our home screen (we will call this folder folder 1).
  • It recreates another folder with two other applications that we choose and before it zooms to show it, we select folder 1 created before, the failure will allow us to insert this folder into the new one that we have created.
  • We can repeat this step as many times as we want to continue introducing new folders within folders.

As you can see, the method is very simple to perform and fast at the same timeLikewise, the user can create as many levels of folders as he wants, even being able to have all the applications contained in folders within a single folder. Although it can be counterproductive, this method of organization can make it impossible for us to remember where an application is, but resorting to the utility Spotlight from iOS, we will always quickly access this desired application.

Although with the Jailbreak you could already get folders within folders in iOS, this method does not need it, but surely in a future update Apple close this bug that makes it impossible for us to do so, but in the meantime we can enjoy it.
