Presumably you refer to moving the Settings App icon from the Home Screen to the Dock seen at the bottom of your screenshot. You simply need to drag the Settings App icon to the Dock...


Touch and hold the settings icon. When the icons wobble, simply drag the Settings icon to the dock - and then lift your finger from the screen. Finally, tap any empty area of the Home Screen to finish moving icons.


Should you need additional information, the iPad User Guide is a rich source of information about your iPad and iPadOS. Here is a direct link to the relevant section of the Guide:

No. I have another page of apps. I just went into Settings>>Home Screen & App Library. I clicked on Show App Library in Dock. Then I went to the Home Screen and moved the mail app and settings app to the left of the / partition. Next I went back to the Settings and unchecked the Show App Library in Dock. Went back to the Home Screen and the mail app, Safari app and Settings app are now in the dock. I wish your s and user guide would work- it would be simpler. Thank you for your help.
