I am using the iPhone 6. When using Safari and I turn the phone to landscape orientation, the left half of the screen shows my bookmarks. There doesn't seem to be any way to close this panel. Is there a setting to close this bookmark panel and stop it appearing?
iPhone 6, iOS 8, 128GB
Apparently there is a "Star" button on the left of the URL address on the iPhone 6 Plus that can be used to turn off the Bookmarks panel. However there is no such button on the iPhone 6!

Just tap in the bookmark icon and it will disappear.
I had this very same issue and figured I was just being dumb. I called Apple and spent nearly an hour on the phone and they couldn't figure it out. At the time this thread just had the inquiry. Thanks for pointing out the obvious! :-)
This was driving me crazy.
>Just tap in the bookmark icon and it will disappear.
This is correct! But it took me a little while to find the button because it is in the toolbar and the toolbar was initially hidden. Scrolling the page up a bit caused the toolbar to show and there was the button in question:
Thank you. This resolved my issue.
FINALLY I figured this out, since I got my iPhone 6+ 128 GB (and this should also be true for iPhone 6 users), when I have been turning my phone horizontal (landscape mode) it would fill up HALF THE SCREEN with the bookmarks, favorites, blah blah, and no matter what I did in settings or trying to edit it was still there. I JUST GOT RID OF IT!!! Lemee know if this helps for iPhone 6 users, but for 6+ when you turn your phone horizontal in safari go to the top where the URL address is, and to the left up there (not in the favorite bookmark area) is an icon that looks like an open book. Just tap it and it gets rid of that f$&%in bookmark take up half your phone screen!
OOops I'm so so sorry someone already answered this (with screen shot) ~_~; my bad I guess I shoulda red more posts, sorry for he interruption there, but at least we got that sht outta here!!!/cheer!!!

This was driving me batty. It worked. So simple. Thanks!
Yes my brother! I was feeling slow, but now I know....many thanks

Thanks a lot. Finally I get rid of it
Just to clarify, you need to tap the bookmark (open book) icon just to the left of the browser URL box at top of page
safari landscape bookmark
