Adding, Removing, and Moving Widgets and Icons
You will quickly find that your DROID is highly customizable, starting with your Home
screen. The DROID 2 and DROID X have seven Home screens, and the DROID has five.
TIP: We explain more details about how to use widgets and move icons in Chapter 6: "Organize
Your Home Screen: Icons and Widgets."
To add a widget, shortcut, folder, or
change the wallpaper, you long press
anywhere you see a blank spot on a Home
screen. This brings up a menu that lets you
add any number of items including
Motorola widgets, Android widgets,
shortcuts, folders or even change your
wallpaper (see the image to the right).
Icons or Widgets: Long press an icon or widget to move
it around the screen, between Home screens, or delete it
from the Home screen. (Don't worry: you can get the icon
back on your Home screen after you press the Launcher
icon.)
Items inside apps: Pressing and holding items inside
apps such as calendar events, contacts, or pictures will
usually give you a context-sensitive menu. For example,
long pressing a contact will give the option to view, call,
send a text message to, share an email with, or delete the
contact.
