How to make a blank iPhone Home Screen
How do you get an empty Homescreen on the iPhone? Removing all the app icons from the Home Screen leaves a clean blank space. It wasn’t a simple process before iOS 14. However, now it will only take some dragging, hiding, and moving to clear the iPhone Home Screen.

And once all the apps are shifted to App Library, you’ll have a clean screen.
