<b>SpringBoard</b> is the standard application that manages the <a href="IPhone" title="IPhone">iPhone</a>'s home screen. Other tasks include starting WindowServer, launching and bootstrapping applications, and setting some of the device's settings on startup.

</p><p>Android's equivalent of iOS' SpringBoard would be a launcher, offering similar functionalities.

</p>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="History">History</h2></div>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Brief_history">Brief history</h3></div>

<p>In 2008, with <a href="Apple_Inc." title="Apple Inc.">Apple's</a> release of iPhone OS 1.1.3 and the January App Pack, the SpringBoard underwent some substantial changes. Holding a finger on any application for a few seconds causes all of the icons to wiggle. From this view, one could rearrange icons, delete <a href="Progressive_web_app#Predecessors" title="Progressive web app">web apps</a> and web clips, and create multiple pages by dragging an application to the side of the screen. If the Home button is pressed, the icons will stop wiggling and apps can be opened again.<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p><p>In July 2008, third-party applications were introduced with <a href="IPhone_OS_2" title="IPhone OS 2">iPhone OS 2.0.</a> These applications are installed through the <a href="App_Store_(iOS)" class="mw-redirect" title="App Store (iOS)">App Store</a> and deleted with the traditional "wiggle mode" method.

</p><p>In June 2009, in <a href="IPhone_OS_3" title="IPhone OS 3">iPhone OS 3</a>, Spotlight Search was added to the SpringBoard. This allowed the user to search for applications and other files stored in the iPhone.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p><p>In June 2010, in <a href="IOS_4" title="IOS 4">iOS 4</a>, home screen wallpapers were introduced to the SpringBoard. Folders were introduced as well: dragging an application on top of another application while in "wiggle mode" will result in a folder being created. After that, more applications may be added to that folder by dragging an application on top of the folder. Applications can be removed from a folder by simply dragging it out into the main home screen. Folders can be removed by removing every application from the folder.

</p><p>In June 2013, in <a href="IOS_7" title="IOS 7">iOS 7</a>, a brand new design of the home screen was introduced, including the redesigned icons, status bar, and dock. Spotlight Search can only be accessed in a new way.

</p><p>In June 2016, <a href="IOS_10" title="IOS 10">iOS 10</a> was revealed in WWDC 16, where some of the pre-installed apps are allowed to be "deleted", where they are actually hidden from the home screen rather than actually be uninstalled.<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> On <a href="IOS_jailbreaking" title="IOS jailbreaking">jailbroken devices</a>, unsigned applications (applications installed through <a href="Cydia" title="Cydia">Cydia</a>) cannot be deleted by the traditional method of holding a finger on the application and selecting delete as they are installed as System applications. Instead, they need to be removed through Cydia, unless CyDelete is installed, allowing that method to be used.

</p><p>In June 2017, with the announcement of <a href="IOS_11" title="IOS 11">iOS 11</a>, several app icons have been redesigned, such as the App Store and the iTunes Store. In September, <a href="IPhone_X" title="IPhone X">iPhone X</a> was introduced, coming with a new gesture to access the home screen by swiping up the "Home Indicator" rather than clicking the home button.

</p><p>In June 2019, when Dark Mode was first coming to iPhone with <a href="IOS_13" title="IOS 13">iOS 13</a>, the home screen gained new contextual menus and dark appearance as well as a dark version of wallpaper (dimmed version of photo if system wallpapers aren't being used). In the same year iOS on the iPad was separated as "<a href="IPadOS" title="IPadOS">iPadOS</a>".

</p><p>In June 2020, <a href="IOS_14" title="IOS 14">iOS 14</a> was announced with some big changes to the SpringBoard. Widgets were added along with what Apple called the App Library. With the addition of an app library, users are now able to remove apps from their Home Screen without actually uninstalling them, which was impossible in prior versions of iOS.

</p><p>In June 2021, <a href="IOS_15" title="IOS 15">iOS 15</a> allowed users to move and manage home screen pages.

</p><p>In June 2022, with <a href="IOS_16" title="IOS 16">iOS 16</a>, a new continuous wallpaper can be applied to the home screen.

</p><p>In June 2023, with <a href="IOS_17" title="IOS 17">iOS 17</a>, widgets (introduced with iOS 14) are now interactive.

</p><p>In June 2024, <a href="IOS_18" title="IOS 18">iOS 18</a> was announced bringing changes to SpringBoard with the introduction of dark and tinted app icons, a new large variant of app icons and widgets were made more easily resizable.

</p><p>Researchers found that on mobile devices users organize icons on their SpringBoards mainly based on usage-frequency and relatedness of the applications, as well as for reasons of usability and aesthetics.<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Spotlight_Search">Spotlight Search</h3></div>

<p>In June 2008, Spotlight Search was added to SpringBoard. It can be accessed by swiping left from the first page of the Home Screen.

</p><p>In June 2013, in <a href="IOS_7" title="IOS 7">iOS 7</a>, instead of swiping left on the first page of apps, Spotlight Search can only be accessed by swiping down on the home screen.<sup id="cite_ref-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p><p>In June 2015, with the announcement of <a href="IOS_9" title="IOS 9">iOS 9</a>, swiping left to access Spotlight Search was re-enabled on certain models, coming along with some new features like Siri Suggestions. This re-enablement was only supported on iOS devices with an <a href="Apple_A6" title="Apple A6">A6 Chip</a> or later, which means that on <a href="Apple_A5" title="Apple A5">A5</a>/<a href="Apple_A5X" title="Apple A5X">A5X</a> devices like <a href="IPhone_4S" class="mw-redirect" title="IPhone 4S">iPhone 4S</a>, <a href="IPod_Touch_5" class="mw-redirect" title="IPod Touch 5">iPod Touch 5</a> and <a href="IPad_3" class="mw-redirect" title="IPad 3">iPad 3</a>, Spotlight Search can still only be accessed by swiping down on the home screen.

</p><p>In June 2016, however, in <a href="IOS_10" title="IOS 10">iOS 10</a>, one could open Today View by swiping left, instead of the traditional Spotlight Search suggestions, which can still be accessed by swiping down from the home screen. Also, Spotlight Search can be accessed through the search bar in the Notification Center.

</p><p>In June 2022, with <a href="IOS_16" title="IOS 16">iOS 16</a>, one could also access Spotlight by clicking the "Search Button".<sup id="cite_ref-7" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Home_Screen_App_Icon_Layout">Home Screen App Icon Layout</h3></div>

<p>Before 2012, all iOS devices (not including <a href="IPad" title="IPad">iPad</a>) have the home screen icon layout of 4(columns) x 4(rows). This excludes the dock, which is 1x4. The layout on an <a href="IPad" title="IPad">iPad</a> in portrait position will appear to be 4x5, and in landscape it will appear to be 5x4, excluding the dock.

</p><p>In 2012, with the introduction of the <a href="IPhone_5" title="IPhone 5">iPhone 5</a>, the screen icon layout was changed to 4x5 since the screen has become longer (from an aspect ratio of 3:4 to 9:16). The layout on an iPad was unchanged.

</p><p>In September 2014, the <a href="IPhone_6" title="IPhone 6">iPhone 6</a> brought a new 4.7 inch screen size, keeping the same ratio as the 4-inch sizes, allowing for a 4x6 app layout. Also, the <a href="IPhone_6_Plus" class="mw-redirect" title="IPhone 6 Plus">iPhone 6 Plus</a> first brought the landscape home screen to iPhones.<sup id="cite_ref-8" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p><p>In September 2017, the <a href="IPhone_8_Plus" class="mw-redirect" title="IPhone 8 Plus">iPhone 8 Plus</a> was released. Despite iOS versions, the iPhone 8 Plus is the last iPhone that still supports a landscape home screen.

</p><p>In the same "Apple Special Event", <a href="IPhone_X" title="IPhone X">iPhone X</a> was released with an even more "Long" aspect ratio of 9:19.5 (1125 x 2436). However, the app layout was still 4x6.

</p><p>In 2019, with <a href="IPadOS_13" title="IPadOS 13">iPadOS 13</a>, users could choose a more compact home screen. In the new compact home screen, icons could be displayed in a layout of 6x5 in both portrait and landscape modes.

</p><p>In 2020, with <a href="IOS_14" title="IOS 14">iOS 14</a>, widgets could be put on the home screen of the iPhone.

</p><p>In 2021, with <a href="IPadOS_15" title="IPadOS 15">iPadOS 15</a>, widgets could be put on the <a href="IPad" title="IPad">iPad</a> home screen as well. Hence, the new compact home screen was changed. If no widgets were placed on the home screen, the layout would be 5x6 for portrait, and 6x5 for landscape. If there was a widget, even with the smallest size, the layout would be 4x6 for portrait, and 6x4 for landscape. Due to the increased freedom and complexity of the new home screen on <a href="IPad" title="IPad">iPad</a>, this is just a rough listing of facts.<sup id="cite_ref-9" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-9"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Multitasking_View">Multitasking View</h3></div>

<p>In 2010, multitasking was introduced with <a href="IOS_4" title="IOS 4">iOS 4</a>. By double-clicking the home button, the screen would lift up to free up the space for a multitasking drawer. In this drawer, all the running apps, excluding the app currently running, would show up as an icon. Long pressing one could trigger the "wiggle mode" with a little "-" button on the top-left corner of every icon. Tapping the "-" button would close the app.<sup id="cite_ref-10" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-10"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p><p>In June 2013 with <a href="IOS_7" title="IOS 7">iOS 7</a>, the multitasking view was redesigned. By double-clicking the home button, the multitasking view appeared as cards. Each card was a screenshot of the corresponding app. They were listed from left to right, and under them was the icon with its app name. On the leftmost place, there was a screenshot of the home screen as well. Swiping a corresponding card up would close an app.<sup id="cite_ref-11" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-11"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>11<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p><p>In June 2014 with <a href="IOS_8" title="IOS 8">iOS 8</a>, quick actions to contacts were added to the multitasking view. When entering multitasking, contact avatars appeared at the very top of the list of cards. By clicking them, one could get to further actions, such as <a href="FaceTime" title="FaceTime">FaceTime</a>, Messages, and Phone Call.<sup id="cite_ref-12" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-12"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>12<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p><p>In June 2015 with <a href="IOS_9" title="IOS 9">iOS 9</a>, the multitasking view was redesigned and the quick action to contacts was removed. The cards were lifted on top of each other from left to right with the icon and app name on top of it. In the rightmost position of the list is the view of the home screen.

</p><p>In June 2017 with <a href="IOS_11" title="IOS 11">iOS 11</a>, the home screen view no longer appeared in the multitasking view. After <a href="IOS_11" title="IOS 11">iOS 11</a> Developer Beta 3, if all apps were closed, SpringBoard would directly display the home screen. In previous versions of <a href="IOS_11" title="IOS 11">iOS 11</a> Developer Beta, a <a href="Gaussian_blur" title="Gaussian blur">Gaussian blur</a> effect would occur over the home screen, and clicking the home button would return to the home screen. Before <a href="IOS_11" title="IOS 11">iOS 11</a> (and after <a href="IOS_7" title="IOS 7">iOS 7</a>), the screenshot of the home screen would stay and, in the same way, clicking the home button could return home as well.<sup id="cite_ref-13" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-13"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>13<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-14" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-14"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>14<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p><p>Before <a href="IOS_11" title="IOS 11">iOS 11</a> (and after <a href="IOS_7" title="IOS 7">iOS 7</a>), multitasking on an iPad could only be accessed by double-clicking the home button or swiping up with five fingers (if enabled in settings). In <a href="IOS_11" title="IOS 11">iOS 11</a> on iPad, a single swiping up from the bottom of the screen would bring up a newly designed dock. By continuing swiping, a new grid-like multitasking view would appear, along with the redesigned <a href="Control_Center_(Apple)" title="Control Center (Apple)">Control Center</a>. Double-clicking the home button or swiping up with five fingers was not removed. In fact, <a href="IOS_11" title="IOS 11">iOS 11</a> on the iPad was the only iOS version where <a href="Control_Center_(Apple)" title="Control Center (Apple)">Control Center</a> and Multitasking were merged.<sup id="cite_ref-15" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-15"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>15<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p><p>Since September 2017 with <a href="IPhone_X" title="IPhone X">iPhone X</a>, multitasking could be accessed by swiping up the Home Indicator and pausing.

</p><p>In June 2018, the <a href="Control_Center_(Apple)" title="Control Center (Apple)">Control Center</a> was removed from the Multitasking view in <a href="IOS_12" title="IOS 12">iOS 12</a> on the <a href="IPad" title="IPad">iPad</a>.

</p><p>On the <a href="IPad_Pro_(3rd_generation)" title="IPad Pro (3rd generation)">iPad Pro 2018</a>, the home button was removed. Therefore, double-clicking the home button to access the multitasking view was replaced with the same mechanic introduced with the iPhone X.

</p><p>In December 2018, iOS 12.1.2 was released to the public with a new closing animation in the multitasking view. The previous animation, where screenshots simply move all the way up to disappear, was said to violate the patent claims in China. In the new animation, the screenshot slides up a little and fades away in the meantime. This feature is only introduced to users in China.<sup id="cite_ref-16" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-16"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>16<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The animation was brought back again with iOS 12.3 Beta 3.<sup id="cite_ref-17" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-17"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>17<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p><p>In 2021, with <a href="IPadOS_15" title="IPadOS 15">iPadOS 15</a>, a multitasking menu appears at the top of apps in iPads, letting users enter Split View or Slide Over more easily.

</p><p>In 2022, with <a href="IPadOS_16" title="IPadOS 16">iPadOS 16</a>, Stage Manager (only available on select iPads) gives <a href="IPad" title="IPad">iPad</a> users access to a multi-window view for multitasking.<sup id="cite_ref-18" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-18"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>18<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

<p><a href="Mac_OS_X_Lion" class="mw-redirect" title="Mac OS X Lion">Mac OS X Lion</a> and later versions include a feature called 'Launchpad", based on the appearance of SpringBoard in iOS.

</p><p>Before the Developer Preview of <a href="Mac_OS_X_Lion" class="mw-redirect" title="Mac OS X Lion">Mac OS X Lion</a>, SpringBoard was renamed Launchpad.
