Open the StifleStand application. It typically features a simple interface with a single button.
When you run the app on your Mac and click "Hide Newsstand," the tool automatically moves the Newsstand icon into a newly created folder titled "Magic".
Users can easily rename the "Magic" folder or drag other apps into it like a normal folder. How to Download and Use StifleStand for Mac
Unlike many customization tools of that time, StifleStand works on stock iOS, including devices like the iPhone 5.
Once your device is detected, click the button. Your device's Springboard (home screen) may briefly restart, and the Newsstand icon will disappear into the "Magic" folder. Technical Requirements and Compatibility System: Built for Mac OS X (versions around 2012–2013).
Because modern versions of iOS (iOS 10 and later) allow users to remove stock apps natively, StifleStand is primarily useful for those using older, "legacy" hardware. Important Safety Warning
Tested and confirmed to work on iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, and other contemporary devices running iOS 5 or iOS 6.
