About apps, widgets, and shortcuts
When you tap on your home screen, a tray opens where you can access installed apps and widgets and set up shortcuts.
The Apps tab includes a complete list of the apps installed on your device, including apps that you download on Google
Play™.
Widgets are like miniature apps that you can often interact with on the home screen. For example, the BBM widget
shows a small view of your current chats. The Bookmarks widget shows all of the websites that you have bookmarked
so that you can open them right from the home screen.
Shortcuts help you perform the tasks that you do the most. For example, if you frequently write email, you can set up
an email shortcut. Tapping the shortcut opens an email composer.
Search for installed apps, widgets, and shortcuts
1. On the home screen, tap
2. Enter a search term in the Search apps, widgets, and shortcuts field.

2. Tap Apps, Widgets, or Shortcuts.
3. Touch and hold an app, a widget, or a shortcut, and then release your finger when the home screen appears.
After you add a shortcut to your home screen, you might be prompted to set up the shortcut. For example, if you add the
Contact shortcut, you must tap the contact that you want to send an email to.
