Samsung Galaxy A20 - Customize Your Home Screen

Here's how to add / remove Home screen items (widgets, apps or folders) and set the wallpaper on your Galaxy A20.
To customize the Home screen on your Galaxy A20, do any of the following:

Add Apps

A shortcut to an individual contact or bookmark can only be added to a Home screen via a widget.
  1. From the Apps screen, touch and hold an app.
  2. Drag and drop the shortcut to the preferred Home screen.
    For the app to be successfully added, there must be sufficient space within the selected Home screen. If needed, additional Home screen panels may be added.

Add Widgets

Widgets are mini-apps (e.g., weather, clock, calendar, etc.) that can be added to a Home screen. They aren't the same as shortcuts as they generally display info and take up more space than a single icon.
  1. From a Home screen, touch and hold an empty space.
  2. Tap
    Widgets
     (at the bottom).
  3. Touch and hold a widget.
  4. Drag the widget to the preferred Home screen then release.
    For the widget to be successfully added, there must be sufficient space on the screen. If needed, additional Home screen panels may be added.
  5. If applicable, tap additional options to activate the widget.
    Options vary depending upon the type of widget.

Add / Remove Folders

  1. From a Home screen, touch and hold an app (e.g., Email, My Verizon, etc.).
  2. Drag the app on to another app (e.g., Gmail, Call Filter, etc.) then release it.
    A folder containing the shortcuts is created (titled Folder name). To rename the folder:
    1. Tap the folder.
    2. Tap the
      Title bar
       (top of the open folder).
    3. Enter a name then tap
      Done
      .
      To remove a folder, drag the app(s) out of an existing folder until the folder disappears.

Remove Apps / Widgets

Removing an app from a Home screen uninstalls it from your device.
  1. From a Home screen, touch and hold the item (e.g., widget, apps, etc.) until the menu appears then release.
  2. Tap the applicable option:
    Options vary depending on the app.
    • Select
    • Remove
    • Disable

Set Wallpaper

  1. Touch and hold a blank space on a Home screen.
