You can specify the layout of apps and folders for the iOS Home screen. The Home screen layout device policy is for iOS 9.3 and later supervised devices.

Important:

Deploying multiple Home Screen Layout polices to a device results in an iOS error on the device. This limitation applies whether you define the home screen through this XenMobile policy or through the Apple Configurator.

To add or configure this policy, go to Configure > Device Policies. For more information, see Device policies.
