The Mabnol : How to Move Icons on Android

This wikiHow teaches you how to move any app icon to a different place on your phone or tablet's home screen, using Android. If your device allows customizing the Apps menu, you can also use this method to move the icons here.

EditSteps

Open your Android's home screen. Unlock your phone or tablet with your security code, or press your Android's home button to get to the home screen.
- If your phone or tablet allows customizing the order of apps on the Apps menu, you can tap the icon, and use the same method to move icons here.
Tap and hold the app icon you want to move. Find the app you want to move on your home screen, and long-press on its icon. This will highlight the app, and allow you to move it around your screen.
Drag the app icon anywhere on your screen. While holding the app icon, move your finger around to move the app on your screen.
- If you want to move an app to another page of your home screen, drag it to the right or left edge of your screen.
Release your finger to save the app's new location. When you find a new spot for the selected app icon, release your finger to save it.
Drag the app icon onto another app to create a folder. This will create a new folder on your home screen, and group the two apps together in this folder.
- Once you create a folder, you can drag and add more apps into it.
