iPhone - Creating Home Screen for App that show icons to launch other app with in app

I just wanted to know how can I create Home Screen after launching my App, that shows multiple icons/app buttons to launch other apps, just like the way iPhone home screen has multiple icons/pages that list app icons.

My app will have different features like map,dining, weather etc.

Thanks

This type of functionality is not allowed by Apple. That is any sort of desktop replacement or dashboard system is explicitly prohibited.

However, if you check out the Facebook iPhone app, you can see that you could do something similar. That is one app showing a grid of icons. Each of the icon buttons launches a different view within the app itself.

This type functionality is allowed and is provided by the three20 library:

This library was spun off from code created in the Facebook App.
