App shortcuts

If an app provides shortcuts to some of its common functions, you'll see them when you press and hold the app icon.

Note: Not all apps support this feature.

1. Press and hold an app icon on the Apps screen or Home screen.
2. From the menu, tap the shortcut you want to use.
   
   Tip:

   • You can also drag a shortcut to add it to the Home screen.
   • You'll see in the menu if the app provides widgets. Tap the icon to choose a widget to add to the Home screen.
