Are you sick of having Newsstand on your iPhone homescreen and not able to put it in a folder..Well now with this program it will put Newsstand into a folder

Mac and Windows link to the program. - You must login or register to view this content.

Step 1: Download and run StifleStand as an administrator.

Step 2: Connect your iOS device.

Step 3: Swipe to the page where your Newsstand app resides.

Step 4: Click Hide Newsstand on StifleStand, and watch the Newsstand app be whisked away into a folder called “Magic”.

That’s all there is to it, but do note the following points:

You will not be able to use Newsstand while inside a folder, attempting to launch it will send your back to your Lock screen if not jailbroken, or kick you into safe mode if jailbroken.
To regain your Newsstand app, simple drag it out of the folder.
You can add additional apps to the Magic folder, and use them as usual.
You can rename the Magic folder if you choose to do so.
If you have problems getting StifleStand to work, it may be because you have too many apps installed on your device, as noted by Filippo Bigarella in this tweet.

When I had my Iphone I freaking hated this app so much. But I was jailbroken so I easily hid it. This is a good tut for those who don't have jailbreak though.
