How to move apps in and out of the launcher
As you’ll see from the screenshot above, the standard applications are no longer in the launcher. Instead I was able to add Google Maps and Messaging in there and removed Contact and Calendar. How did I do it?
The first thing I did was hit the black launch button all the way on the right. From there, I simply selected the programs I wanted to remove. To do so, I selected the application I wanted to remove (ex. Contact) by pressing my finger on the screen where the app is until a white ring around the icon for the app. Then with your finger, move the app out of the launcher and into the menu with all of your other apps.
This will give you an empty space which you can use putting another app in it’s place. To do, you’ll just repeat the previous steps in reverse. Find the app you want to move into the launcher and press your screen above where the apps is. Once a white ring appears around the icon for the apps move it down and voila – you’re done.
Doing this has helped save me from wasting time swiping to get to what I want.
