Samsung Galaxy A51 5G UW - Customize Your Home Screen

Here's how to add / remove Home screen items (widgets, apps or folders) and set the wallpaper on your Galaxy A51 5G UW.
To customize the Home screen on your Galaxy A51 5G UW, 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 to the top of the screen, then 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. Tap the widget you want to use.
    If applicable, tap additional options to activate the widget. Options vary depending upon the type of widget.

Add / Remove Folders

  2. Drag the app on to another app (e.g., Gmail, Call Filter, etc.) then release it.
    A folder containing the shortcuts is created. To rename the folder:
    1. Tap the folder.
    2. Tap
      Folder name
       (top of the open folder).
    3. Enter a name then tap
