Adding a widget to your Home screen

Widgets make at-a-glance important information and media content easily available. Choose from a selection of widgets and add the most useful ones to your Home screen.

  • On the Feeds panel or any widget panel, slide two fingers together to customize the Home screen.

  • Tap View > Widgets. You can:

    • Swipe to browse through the widgets.

    • Tap Search icon to search for specific widgets.

      Note: Some widgets are available in different styles and sizes.

  • Press and hold and then drag a widget to a home screen thumbnail where you want to add it.

  • You can also add widgets that allow you to quickly switch on or off certain settings such as Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.

  • Changing the settings of a widget

    You can modify basic settings of some widgets (for example, the People widget) from the Home screen.

    • Press and hold a widget on your Home screen, and then drag it to Settings icon.

    The relevant screen where you can change some settings for this widget then opens.

    • Customize the widget settings.

    Resizing a widget

    Some widgets can be resized after you’ve added them to your Home screen.

    • Press and hold a widget on the Home screen, and then release your finger. If a border appears, that means the widget is resizable.

    • Drag the sides of the border to enlarge or shrink the widget size.
