![]() It takes just one click to display CPU temperature and performance in detail. It detects CPU throttling due to thermal constraints. Hot is one of our tiny open source freebies. If your Mac’s performance drops due to high temperatures, which is known as thermal throttling, you can see this happening in real time through Hot. In the app, users will find an intuitive graph that shows the current CPU temperature and also whether the CPU is running at full speed. Once you download it, there’s no need to install it or even move it to the Applications folder. Unlike other more complex apps, Hot is extremely simple and easy to use. The Hot utility is part of the iMazing open source project, which means that it is completely free for anyone to use. Obviously it would be much easier on a larger screen where all of the home screens were visible simultaneously, using a mouse to drag and drop.ĭo not despair, I contacted DigiDNA the developers of iMazing and suggested a function similar to the old iTunes method of screen management would be a popular addition to their already successful app and they replied, "it is one of the most requested features we have in development, so you can be sure that if it is possible, it will get released in one of the future updates.IMazing, the company behind the popular iOS device management app of the same name, this week released an update to its utility app for macOS called “Hot.” The app is designed to let users monitor CPU temperature and throttling on Macs, and it’s now compatible with the Apple M1 chip. The bottom line here is that all this is difficult and time consuming, especially if you have eight pages of apps or more, I only had five. This method works on the assumption that I have four or more apps in the same category and in a lot of cases this is true but like me you will find that in some cases you only have two or three. So my second home page now looks like this Once you start this method it's easy to build on it over time. ![]() I emptied the next page and began setting up "like function" apps in rows using Alexandre Levacher's method (The Startup) Then I replaced those with the other apps I used most. From that point I removed all Native apps I didn't use at all from the first home page to the last page eg. The above is how I started my reorganization. Be warned, it will also remove any folders you may have created. This will put all of the Native apps on the first Home Screen and the rest in alphabetical order over the other screens. The limit is eleven, if you exceed that number the apps, although loaded and useable, will not be visible.īut this doesn't solve the basic problem reorganizing all of your apps into some sort of intuitive order can take hours.Īpple provides a way to start in Settings > General > Reset > Reset Home Screen Layout. Personally I like to keep the bottom line of any page empty, (four spaces) even if that means having more screens. This little trick saves a lot of frustration and enables you to move apps from screen to screen without the unwanted automatic reshuffle. Hint number one here is never fill all of the empty spaces on any home screen. My wife uses the finder a lot, which is fine but it doesn't show you where the app is, it just opens it.ġ. It can take some time to undo this, enough to put anyone off entirely. If you let the app go accidentally it can change the content of that page pushing another app back to the previous page which if full will move another app back a page and so on. The apps all wiggle and move around, changing their order and positions as you drag the app across multiple home pages. ![]() So today with increased storage across iOS devices and an ever expanding range of apps available how do we reorganize and keep our iOS apps in a logical and orderly manner?Īnyone who has tried this knows that it is an awkward process. In 2009 there was an app called AppButler which not only created folders and custom icons as well as page numbers and line breaks for your home screens but that fell by the wayside in iOS 3 and has not been heard of since. There is an app called Apple Configurator2 but it organizes apps on home screens only as a secondary function and not particularly well. Interestingly no third party developer has produced an app for organizing/reorganizing your iOS apps. I should point out that it is possible to go back to the previous version of iTunes where this feature still exists but it is a complex and risky procedure and means you will not get any future updates of iTunes so I haven't bothered to go into it here. (If you want to let Apple know how you feel about this, you can provide feedback directly via this link: Feedback - iPhone - Apple) Management of apps is now relegated to your iPhone or iPad directly. When iTunes was updated to 12.7.x, the option to organize apps directly in iTunes was removed.
