Change the stock apps in the Dock

The iOS Dock is the bar at the bottom of all your Home screens that contains the Phone app, Messages, Safari, and Music by default. If you are not a regular user of these apps, you can utilise the space differently. 

You can simply hold an app icon in the Dock until it jiggles and drag to a new location and now select your new preferred app and drag onto the Dock.

When app icons start jiggling. or swipe to the left to show the Today View. go to the bottom of the screen and select Edit. Then select the “-r” icon as before.
