Press down on an item and move it slightly, as if you’re wiggling it a little. Without moving the object a small amount, you won’t be able to make a drag group. 2. Using your second hand, tap other items to add them to the drag group. 3. If you want, you can switch the second app, and you’ll need to swipe the Dock up first, using your other hand. 4. Then drag an app icon (where you want to drop the drag group) into the other part of the screen, and release the app. 5. Move the drag group into the target app. 6. Drop the drag group. You’ve used both hands to drag and drop like an expert!
