Some apps don't show up to be able to move to the edge favorites panel. Is this just the way it is or am I missing something? I wish that I could add more favorites panels that you can edit however you want.

After doing a Regular Search and Advanced Search and not finding an answer I'm sorry to say I have to ask for help.
When we take the stylist out you can have it set so that the "Shortcuts Toolbar" slides out on the right hand side.
I'm using Apex Launcher but also have Go Launcher EX, Nova, and TouchWiz available, if one of those would be a better choice for me.
How do I change/customize the shortcuts in the shortcuts toolbar to something I would prefer?
Is there a way to activate the shortcut toolbar without removing stylist?
Thank you for any and all help you might be able to give.
With the current firmware these are not changeable, nor can you open this without taking the s-pen out. You can change what happens when you remove the Pen, IE one of the apps in the menu can open automatically or nothing can happen, but you can't change the listed apps there.
Nirvana388, Thank you very much for your help or should I say confirmation of what I had unfortunately figured out.
Yea definitely disappointing would love to customize that and save myself an extra home screen panel.

Not the same... but
Have you tried Sidebar app from play store?
I find the shortcut toolbar a bit of waste being there if you can't change the apps in the list ..
but give Sidebar a try.. it just works..

I updated my AT&T Galaxy Note Edge to Lollipop and I can't work out how to add a new item to a folder in the Apps screen now. Previously there was a plus icon you could press but now I only see that if I add a new folder and not on an existing folder.
It looks like items can be added to folders on the home screen with no issues by dragging the icon there. It's just on the Apps screen I'm having issues.
Does anyone know how to do this? It's a pain as I update my folder in the Apps screen and make a shortcut to it on my main home screen.
Hi, I was wondering if there is a way to put more then 5 apps on the bottom of the screen in the app bar? Im currently exploring nova launcher and its working well but I wanna put less apps on the home screen and hopefully put more in the bar at the bottom and maybe if there is something out there that'll let me put a lot of apps in the bar and use it to like scroll through the apps I put in there.
Thank you
You can change the dock to accept up to 7 icons with Nova Launcher
Other than that, create folders on the dock and add shortcuts to each of those would give you unlimited dock icons
Or look for an app in the play store that has some sort of side or bottom bar you can add to like this

Chrome..is there a way to shortcut my entire bookmaks list through 1 home screen icon? Im sick of going through the dots bookmark thing everytime i want to see a new site.
I used to use Cmarks before Google blocked the Api
With Nova launcher, yes.
(Using it for DuckDuckGo; no reason it cannot be done for Chrome)
Is it like a widget in the launcher?

Click to expand...

Nope.
Just like a normal single icon on home screen (for the folder inside which are the shortcuts).
You can modify the icon for the main folder icon & the inside shortcut icons as you please.
Several shortcuts can be saved this way with either horizontal card panning or vertical scroll of shortcuts; background colour & transparency adjustable.
So that's close to what I've done as a temp. A folder with shortcuts in it. Cmarks was glorious cuz it had everything in a nice tight list and syncd with Google bookmarks automatically. It was like you bookmarks bar in 1 icon. I so miss this functionality.
Hi guys so i wanted some advice i have a old samsung s8 that i want to give to my old gran as she is not tec savvy i want to know is it possible to remap the system so all it has access to is whatsapp and cant do nothing else take all apps off the home screen and such apart from whats app
many thanks
Yes, it is possible to remap your Samsung S8 so that your grandmother only has access to WhatsApp and cannot do anything else. Here are some steps that you can follow:
Create a new user profile on your Samsung S8, which will be used exclusively by your grandmother.
Go to the Play Store and download a launcher app such as Nova Launcher or Apex Launcher. These apps will allow you to customize the home screen and remove all unnecessary apps.
After installing the launcher app, set it as the default launcher for your grandmother's user profile.
Go to the home screen and remove all the apps that you don't want your grandmother to access. You can do this by long-pressing the app icon and then dragging it to the "Remove" or "Uninstall" option.
Add the WhatsApp app to the home screen and place it in a prominent position so that your grandmother can easily access it.
Finally, lock the home screen layout so that your grandmother cannot accidentally move or delete the WhatsApp icon. You can do this in the launcher settings.
By following these steps, you can create a customized user profile for your grandmother that only has access to the WhatsApp app and is easy to use.
Hello thanks alot for your help just to ask how do i go about making another profile ?
Also is it possible to have it where when the phone switches on you could just have whatsapp there no sliding right or left or being able to change any settings ?
Many thanks
