I want to ensure we're aligned, Larry, so I can provide you with the right details to resolve your QuickBooks Online (QBO) inquiry and access the New option.
Before we proceed, could you let me know if you're using the mobile application or accessing your company file through your mobile device's browser? If you're using a browser, please know that the New option has been updated to the + Create button. For visual reference, see the screenshot below.


Also, can you provide more details about the apps that you want to move or close? Are you referring to the features on the left navigational bar? To revert them and get back to the main dashboard, you can click anywhere on the screen of your device. See the image below.
