If you’ve been an iPhone user for a while, you know that there are certain contacts and apps that you use more frequently than others. In iOS 11, Apple made it easier to keep these favorites at the top of your list by allowing you to move them with just a few clicks. Tap and hold on the app or contact that you want to move. Drag it to the location that you want it to be in. Lift your finger off of the screen. Your favorite will now stay put at the top of your list, making it easy for you to find and use it when you need it.
