How do you get rid of the grey bar

I Agree, no apps and the fact that there's a flat black background makes the dock's transparency effect useless and it just looks gray.

Thank you all for your responses. Yes, you must be right - the dock must be there. I had never seen an empty dock before.

To Adrianloza503 - you have not told us which model iPhone you have, but it's clearly an earlier model than iPhone X. With iPhone X or later, the increased real estate on the home screen allows an extra (sixth) row of apps to be displayed, but there are still four apps per row as you have shown.

Sorry, I have to take back the comment about the sixth row above. I've now seen what I think is an iPhone 8 showing six rows of apps.

So I don't understand exactly why the screenshot in the original post only shows five rows of apps. Perhaps it's an older iPhone.

You don't.

You can put up to four apps there that will be available regardless of which Homes Screen your on.

I don’t understand why you don’t see the dock at the bottom of your screenshot.

Might you have turned on zoom? You can double tap the home screen with three fingers to turn zoom off.

I think so too. (music and safari icons are out of the dock)
