Is there a way I can hide the iPhone dock or remove it?

Hi so I was reorganising my home pages on my iPhone 11 to look better. I took all the apps and folders that were in my dock and placed them on different parts of my Home Screen but the empty dock is still visible. Is there a way I can hide the empty dock or remove it?

How do I move apps to the dock in iOS 17? After upgrading my iPhone 7 to an iPhone 15, and a soon to be unsupported iOS to iOS 17 I wanted to move apps to the first page of my home screen. Used to be you could make room on the dock by moving apps off of it and then use the dock to move apps back and forth from screen to screen. Well, apparently that does not work any more. I moved my phone and mail apps from the dock to a screen with some empty slots, but I cannot move anything onto the dock, INCLUDING trying to get my Mail and Phone apps back to the dock. How do I move apps to the dock?

The Dock is a feature.

You can’t simply remove this feature because you don’t want it.
