Add Widgets to the Home Screen

Widgets are simple application extensions that run
on your phone's home screen. Unlike a shortcut, the
Widget works like as an onscreen application.
1. From home, touch and hold an empty space, and
then tap Widgets.
2. Touch and hold a widget icon to select it.
3. Drag the icon to an empty location on the
home screen.
