Note
When you first see the Home screen, and your tablet is connected to the
Internet, it will download a selection of recommended, optional apps. These
may be deleted, as with any other downloaded app.
Folders are groups of apps that occupy one space on a Home screen.

Widgets provide special functions, quick shortcuts to special app
features, or serve as small apps that display constantly-updated
information (like the time and weather). Many apps provide widgets,
while some apps provide only a widget, and must be added and used
from a Home screen.
