To customize the Home screen on your Galaxy Note20 5G / Galaxy Note20 Ultra 5G, do any of the following:

  2. Touch and hold an app.
  3. 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

     (at the bottom).
  3. Tap the appropriate app.
