With the current home bar/dock situation, our background images are marred by this disgusting blurry bar. So annoying. I too had a transparent dock (without jailbreaking) until i made the mistake of changing my background image.

You learn how to spell by seeing the word written. Siri is one way of learning. Are you suggesting we take dictionaries away from children because they migh look up words and find out how to spell then?

Do you think children are sitting in class talking to their phones?

I hate it too- showed up after a software update. POS, I did find out yiu can remove others in settings, general, dock. And to the people who commented about the dock it is a dang dock. If this wasn’t an apple site I’d change the vowel in dock that’s how much I hate it.

I went to the Apple Store & somebody showed me how to reduce the transparency. That is what it can be done.

You actually want to turn Reduce Transparency to "Off". However, that simply changes the way the Dock looks. It doesn't remove it.

Not sure what you mean by "dock". If you mean the four apps that sit at the bottom of all your home screens, you cannot remove it. If you mean the scrollable display of recently used apps shown after a double click of the home button, you can't remove that either.

Those 4 apps are suppose to be there.

The dock has been avaialble with the iPhone since day one nearly 5 years ago. The apps on the dock are avaialble regardless the home screen selected for easy/quick access of your chosen apps in the dock regardless the home screen you are on.

I have Phone, Mail, Safari, and Music in my dock so I can quickly access these apps regardless the home screen I'm on.

You can add/remove apps from the dock. You might try removing all apps from the dock that are currently available there, but there is not an option to remove the dock.

You'e welcome.

However you can get rid of the dock/glass shelf they are sitting on.

No you cannot - not with a non-jailbroken/hacked iPhone.

Regardless, what difference does it make? It is a glass shelf for crying out loud which doesn't change or affect anything. There is not a setting to reveal or not reveal this glass shelf.
