What is App Library on iPhone?
The App Library is the new feature of iOS 14 to organize all your iPhone’s apps in one place. They are automatically grouped in categories such as social, productivity, utilities, etc. There is currently no way to rename the categories or move apps from one to another. You can scroll to see the apps or use the handy search feature. The App Library displays all your apps in little four-square boxes. At the top-right, you’ll see the Recently Added apps. At the top left, you will see Siri Suggestions. These are four apps intelligently recommended by Siri depending on the time of day, location, etc. The suggestions get more relevant the more you use your phone. Moreover, they are determined only by on-device data, and information about your app usage, location, habits, is not sent anywhere.
