App installation errors<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Sometimes when you are installing an app from the app store on your iPhone, it gets stuck during the process. However, the installation process produces an actual app icon along with an installing ghost app icon on your iPhone, creating duplicates or ghosts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To get rid of these duplicate apps, try to simply restart your device &ndash; all the ghost apps should disappear.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"2-app-library-icons\">2. App library icons<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>The App Library contains all the installed apps on your iPhone &ndash; whereas the home screen only displays apps that you want to see there, e.g. apps you use frequently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Starting with iOS 14, the app library was separated from the home screen in order to simplify it. Some users get confused when seeing the same apps on the home screen and in the app library, and see them as duplicate apps. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In reality though, the app library typically has a single copy of the app while the home screen only holds a shortcut icon for easy access to that app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you remove an app from the home screen, it will still be present in the app library, until you uninstall it from the phone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-layout-1 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"576\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/mobilepains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/image-4-576x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11393\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mobilepains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/image-4-576x1024.png 576w, https:\/\/mobilepains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/image-4-169x300.png 169w, https:\/\/mobilepains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/image-4.png 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"eager\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"576\" height=\"1024\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns='http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg'%20viewBox='0%200%20576%201024'%3E%3Crect%20width='576'%20height='1024'%20style='fill:%23e3e3e3'\/%3E%3C\/svg%3E\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11393 eager-load\" sizes=\"(max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/mobilepains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/image-4.png?wsr\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-1\" data-src=\"https:\/\/mobilepains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/image-4-576x1024.png.webp\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/mobilepains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/image-4-576x1024.png.webp 576w, https:\/\/mobilepains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/image-4-169x300.png.webp 169w, https:\/\/mobilepains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/image-4.png.webp 450w\" data-svg=\"1\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">iPhone Home Screen<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"576\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/mobilepains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/image-5-576x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11394\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mobilepains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/image-5-576x1024.png 576w, https:\/\/mobilepains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/image-5-169x300.png 169w, https:\/\/mobilepains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/image-5.png 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"576\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/mobilepains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/image-5-576x1024.png.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11394 lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mobilepains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/image-5-576x1024.png.webp 576w, https:\/\/mobilepains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/image-5-169x300.png.webp 169w, https:\/\/mobilepains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/image-5.png.webp 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/mobilepains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/image-5.png?wsr\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-2\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">iPhone App Library<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"3-ios-15-update\">3. iOS 15 update<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Starting with the iOS 15 update, you can now have multiple copies of the same app placed on different pages of your home screen. This means multiple app icons can be created on your iPhone&rsquo;s home screens &ndash; something that wasn&rsquo;t possible before.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This feature was mainly added to facilitate &ldquo;Focus&rdquo;, a new concept for providing customized home screens for specific focus use cases (e.g. work focus, study focus, entertainment focus, etc.).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>App icons can be spread across various home screens of your iPhone, so if you need a particular app in both work and study mode, you can have a separate app icon for each mode.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your phone recently got updated and you are seeing all these duplicate apps on your phone, iOS 15 (or later) may be the culprit here.&nbsp; However, you can easily remove the duplicate: tap and hold the app icon, and in the drop down menu that appears, choose &ldquo;Remove App&rdquo;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mobilepains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/img_621fd1ee768fc.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"360\" height=\"640\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mobilepains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/img_621fd1ee768fc.jpg.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"360\" height=\"640\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-3\" class=\" lazyload\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Note that copying the app simply means that you are creating app icons to the same app with the same context on different home screens of your iPhone. This should not be confused with app duplication which means that you can have the same app with different contexts (different accounts, different logins, etc).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even if you remove all duplicate icons for a particular app from your home screen, the app will still be available in the app library.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-to-duplicate-icons-on-iphone\">How to duplicate icons on iPhone?<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>iOS lets you create duplicate icons of the same app on your iPhone.

You can&rsquo;t get rid of these gray apps via the normal app deleting process. However, here are a few things you can try:<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"1-restart-your-iphone\">1. Restart your iPhone<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Try restarting your phone and see if the grayed out app icon disappeared: press and hold the power button on your iPhone, when the &ldquo;Slide to power off&rdquo; option appears, swipe the slider from left to right to switch off your phone. Give it a minute or two and then turn it back on by pressing and holding the power button. The Apple logo appears and your iPhone restarts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mobilepains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/img_621fd1eeda373.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"360\" height=\"640\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mobilepains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/img_621fd1eeda373.jpg.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"360\" height=\"640\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-4\" class=\" lazyload\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/figure>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"2-delete-the-app-from-iphone-storage\">2.

Force restart your iPhone<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>If none of the above mentioned methods work for you, try force restarting your iPhone. Force restart ends all running processes and restarts the phone. This means if some apps have ghost running processes in the background, they will be killed by the processor. This is different from a simple restart where the processes are saved in the memory before restarting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To force restart <strong>an iPhone with Face ID, iPhone series 8 and SE (2nd generation)<\/strong>, quickly press and release the volume up button, quickly press and release the volume down button, press and hold the power button until the Apple logo appears.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To force restart <strong>iPhone series 7<\/strong>,  press and hold the volume button along with the power button at the same time, and release both buttons when the Apple logo appears.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To force restart <strong>iPhone series 6 and SE (1st generation)<\/strong>, press and hold the power button along with the home button at the same time, then release both buttons when the Apple logo appears.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Force restarting the phone does not delete any of your personal data and often fixes the ghost app issue.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"can-i-install-multiple-copies-of-the-same-app-on-iphone\">Can I install multiple copies of the same app on iPhone?<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>Each app in the app store has its own unique app ID used to identify the app. You can&rsquo;t have multiple copies of an app with the same app ID. Therefore, it is not possible to install multiples of the same app on your iPhone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Installing a single app more than once (duplicate app installation) is not possible on iPhone unless you use a third party app. You can only create multiple icons of the same app (see section &ldquo;iOS 15 update&rdquo; earlier).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While iPhone doesn&rsquo;t allow you to install multiple instances of the same app, third party apps like <a href=\"https:\/\/apps.apple.com\/us\/app\/parallel-space-multi-accounts\/id1441117543\" rel=\"noopener\">Parallel Space<\/a> allow you to keep multiple accounts on the same app simultaneously.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Parallel Space lets you create clones of the same app so that you can use a number of accounts with a single app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mobilepains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/img_621fd1f029d0f.png\" alt=\"\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mobilepains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/img_621fd1f029d0f.png.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-8\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\" lazyload\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>iPhone doesn&rsquo;t support dual apps and Apple has no plan to do so in the near future due to privacy and security concerns. However, as discussed, some third-party apps allow you to clone an app to handle multiple accounts at the same time in that app. <a href=\"https:\/\/apps.apple.com\/us\/app\/dual-space\/id1474779422\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Dual Space<\/a> is another example.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"finding-hidden-apps-on-iphone-ipad\">Finding Hidden Apps on iPhone \/ iPad<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>To find hidden apps on iPhone\/iPad, open Settings and tap on your account on the top of the screen.
