Customize start page

Sign in to your How-To Geek account On your iPhone or iPad, you can easily customize the Safari Start Page in iOS 15 and iPadOS 15 (or higher). You can make the page blank (mostly), add a background image, or pick and choose what you want to see. Here's how. First, open Safari on your iPhone or iPad and open a new tab by tapping the tabs button (two overlapping rectangles), then tapping the plus ("+") button. You'll see Safari's "Start Page" by default. To edit what's on the Start Page, scroll down if necessary and tap the "Edit" button. When you tap "Edit," a "Customize Start Page" window will appear. Use the switches beside the listed options to turn them on or off. Here's what each option does. Favorites: This displays items from your Favorites list (like bookmarks). Frequently Visited: You'll see a list of frequently visited websites. Shared With You: This gives you a list of items shared with you from other people through the Messages app. Privacy Report: This shows a report on the number of trackers Safari has blocked recently. Siri Suggestions: This displays suggestions from Siri related to what's in your history and bookmarks. Reading List: This shows items from your Reading List. iCloud Tabs: This shows Safari tabs that are synchronized across iCloud from your other devices. While also in the "Customize Start Page" window, you can use the "three lines" handle beside each item to tap and drag the Start Page items in the list. This will change the order of how the items will appear on the Start Page. And if you turn the switch beside "Background Image" into the "on" position, you can select a background picture that will display behind the content on your Start Page. Tap an image in the thumbnails or tap the plus ("+") button to select a custom image from your photo library. If you want to make your Start Page as minimalist as possible, switch off every item on the "Customize Start Page" list. (Unfortunately, you'll still see the "Edit" button.) When you're done, click the "X" button to close the Customize Start Page window. The changes you've made take effect immediately. Happy browsing!

This is pretty easy to do, but the menu for doing it is in a spot that is a little hard to find. When you first create a Tab Group, the background will match your main Start Page. Once you've opened a Start Page within the Tab Group you want to customize, swipe up to scroll to the bottom of the page. At the bottom of the Start Page tap the Edit button. This will open the Customize Start Page sheet. Unfortunately, almost all of the options here are universal, not specific to the Tab Group you're currently customizing. For example, if you toggle off Favorites or Shared with You, that section will disappear from all Start Pages, not just the one for this Tab Group. The background image, however, is unique for every Start Page. Swipe up to scroll to the bottom of the page to see them all. Like the options above, if you toggle off Background Image entirely, it will turn it off on every Start Page. If you select a background, whether one of the built-in options or your own image (which you can access by tapping the option with the large plus sign) , it will be applied only to this Tab Group. So pick one that fits the mood of the group and that will help you immediately identify which group you're looking at. Just tap the image you like and then close the sheet with the X
