Does anyone really use the left side of home aka search?

[reputationZed]

I use it constantly, don't even organize or care about the running order of the 60+ apps I've got on various homescreens. On Page 1 I organize the things I need one-click access to. For all apps on all other pages, I use search.

Try it, you'll understand.

Same here, sort of a Launchbar for iOS

I hate that more thananything on my two iOS devices iPad and iPhone. I wish I had the option to instead use it for more apps like android since I have never and wil never use that damn search feature what a waste!!

...and breathe.

I use it all the time. Especially for Wikipedia searches. To each his own I guess.

 

[vincenz]

I only use it occasionally.

Never use it wish there was a option to remove it.

I use it as an App launcher. Rather than looking for the app I need I just type in the and viola

I only use it to quickly find a song.

While I don't use it very often, I'm glad it's there. Plus, it's not as if it gets it the way at all!

Sometimes my iOS devices have so many apps installed that I forget where certain ones are placed. The Spotlight search is very useful under those circumstances. It's also very useful on the iPhone when I'm looking for a text message from a while back.

Just like Spotlight on OS X, it's a useful feature when you need it.

I don't have one. I JAILBROKE and removed it because I never use it. That thing used to aggravate me when an accidental left swipe on first springboard page took me too far over. Got tired of rolling my eyes at it; so now it's gone. (As is my lockscreen)!

I've never used it on any of my iOS devices.

I use it and it's actually quite helping.

I minimized my home screen putting apps into folders so I just type into spotlight what I want and bam click and opens. I love it and use it to open nearly any app not directly on my dock or home screen. It's faster than flicking through pages or finding where u stuck an app.

Use it as much on my mbp too

I use it to search for things on the web and for songs

 

[iPhalandrew]

Yes!

I use it all the because I never can remember what app is in what folder/ what page!
