iPad Air 5 dock icons disappearing after iOS 16.1.1 update

I downloaded 18.1.1 now I have no icons in my dock and can not put any in there. They wiggle and return back to home page. Does anyone else have this problem? How to fix it. Help.

iPad Air Home Screen (very bottom, gray) Dock Why can't I drag and drop icons to this bar/dock/whatever, after the OS26 update? Every time I try, they make a "popping" action and disappear. I've tried dragging the Camera app/icon, Phone app/icon, and nothing. Is there a setting I'm missing?? Thanks in advance for any help! Joe [Edited by Moderator]

iPad Pro: App Dock hidden after iPadOS update I have an iPad Pro 10.5 and recently updated the IPadOS to 17.7.10. I also changed my Lock screen and Background photos. Now the App Dock at the bottom of the screen remains hidden, unless I swipe up to reveal it. And I cannot drag any new apps to the Dock, because it keeps disappearing. I'm not sure if something I did caused this, or it's a glitch in the iPadOS that I upgraded to. If someone has any ideas on how to remedy this, please let me know. Thanks! RayK

When dragging App icons to the Dock, ensure that you drag them to the left-side of the Dock's divider bar.
