Hello There,

I will be buying a iPad Mini & wanted to know, how many app pages has the 16GB & the 32GB have? And how many App's does each page hold?

Thank You

  • It depends on the size of the Apps not the number of apps you have. A larger memory size (16GB or 32GB) will mean more apps you can download, as well as videos and music.

    Each page holds 20 apps (not including the 4 apps attached to the dock) - how many pages of apps will depend on how many apps you have downloaded

    Thank You,

    Just had a google & it seems the iPad Mini 2 will be in March/April. I might wait a while. Though who knows how much it will cost, especially if it's going to have a retina screen

    I imagine it will be a similar price, and i reckon they'll stick the retina in it. However if they put it into the yearly cycle it may not be out until September, which is what i reckon they'll do as the first gen ipad mini sold better than they expected.

    you can get 20 icons on a screen, but these can be organised into folders, which then make up the place of one icon. I believe you can get 16 apps in one folder, which means a total of 320 per screen?
    I base the 16 apps per folder as the biggest folder on my iphone, if i had my ipad mini with me i would test it, but its at home...

    That was very helpful. I will see if I can wait until March lol. If it's not coming out then, I will buy the iPad Mini & not wait until Sept.

    I am just going to use if for gaming & light surfing, I have 400 odd games in my wish list & I would have more if I could add more, but I've reached my limit. Plus since updating the add to wish list is not there any more any one else noticed this?. It's a real shame.

    You can get 5 across the bottom, BUT you can put folders on the bottom, so potentially 100 apps along the bottom. Thus also 20 in the actual home area. (+5 across the bottom) but they stay the same in each screen you use)

    20 apps max to each folder. Remember there are a couple of the apple apps that cannot be put in folders (nor deleted).
