Moving Notes to the iPhone 5 Dock
The steps in this article are specifically about moving the Notes app to the iPhone dock, but the same steps can be applied to any other app that you might want to put in your dock. As the dock remains in the same location as you swipe through the different Home screens on the device, it is usually a good idea to put your most frequently used apps here to make them easier to access. Step 1: Tap and hold the Notes icon until all of the apps on the screen start to shake, and some of them have x’s at the top-left corner.
Step 2: If you have 4 icons in your dock already, then tap, hold, and drag one of those icons out of the dock. In the example image below, I am moving the Mail app out of my dock. If you have 3 or fewer icons in the dock, then you can skip this step.
Step 3: Tap, hold, and drag the Notes icon to the dock.
Step 4: Press the Home button under your screen to lock the icons into their new locations.
