Re-install launcher.

Can you find the Apps icon on your home screen?
From Home screen, tap the Apps icon,
Tap and hold an app which you want to add to home screen,
Drag the app to the desired home screen position then release.

Many apps are installed because I find it on the settings app but are not in the home screen.
How can I add the installed app on the home screen ?

On your home screen, tap the Apps icon or swipe up in order to show all apps.
Then select an app.

If I swipe up nothing happens.

[REQUEST] [APP] Fast Home Long Press App?

I've been using http://www.appbrain.com/app/com.esdmobile.taskswitcher with a single Home button tap to activate, but I'm not a fan of the huge app previews. I'd like an icon only view (especially since it's 15 apps on one screen via CM6).
So I'm looking for an app that will open the Home Long Press by tapping the Home button once (ie NOT a long press), while still allowing use of LauncherPro etc. (A second tap would bring it back to the actual home screen.)
Does such an app exist?
have you tried quickdesk?
Power Strip is nice. It is so much more than just recent apps though. But I have it set to start with the recent apps tab, and can also use it to check a few widgets or as a launcher.

Yeah, didn't like it.
I'm just looking to open the Recent Apps list via a single button tap.
You could tap on 'more recent' on your desktop

Aye. It's a start I currently have More Recent set to LauncherPro Dock middle button swipe up Although it's not as fast as I would like: when in an app, need to go Home -> Swipe up, so an extra step.
If the Android Recent Apps list is completely inaccessible, then More Recent on a single home tap would be just as good

Change apps at homescreen SW2

Hi,
I can't find a way to change app places at smartwatch 2 's home screen. Like Alarm, Flashlight, Timer, Gmail, Messaging in the first page etc.
Is there any way to do this?
Thanks.
Whilst on the home screen, press the menu button, you get 2 options, alphabetical and by usage.

How to change order of apps on Sony sw2
You can rearrange apps how you like by going onto the smartwatch app on your mobile and then going to my apps, once there press the icon in the top right this will give you the option to sort alphabetically or own sort order. Click on own sort order and then you can slide apps from top to bottom in a custom order which will be mirrored on your smartwatch.

Nova Launcher:Disable search apps pop up that comes up when long press in the dock

Hello. I just installed Nova Prime 5.4-beta 4 on my LG G6. I am trying to figure out how to turn off/ disable the feature where when you long press somewhere in the dock area a "search apps" screen pops up rather than the normal widget/ wallpaper/ settings menu. It only does it when I long press in or near the dock, but since this is where I am use to long pressing to change wallpaper, or add a widget I keep getting this pop up instead. I have looked all through the settings and cant find it. I read that somewhere in the gestures menu there is suppose to be a long press menu, but if thats true I dont have that on mine. Ive added a screenshot to show you the pop up I am referring to. Thanks

Thanks. Im actually not talking about the home button. Ive got the long press home button to open search. What I mean is when I long press in the area where I have highlighted the 2 pink lines on the attached screenshot it opens the search apps menu also in the screenshot. But if I am able to press somewhere in the blue area above the pink lines I get the widget/ wallpaper menu. Its a bit hard getting the right area. I contacted Nova about it and they said the only way to disable that is to turn off the swipe up to access the app drawer feature. So I just try to long press just slightly higher in the area I highlighted blue. Hope this makes sense.

That actually worked. Thanks. Made the long press area a little smaller, but it stopped that menu from popping up. Thanks again!

Hi XDA Forum,
Here's a Nova alternative setup I like that will disable opening the the Search App form when you accidentally short tap the Home button . This setup also allows you to keep the Swipe Up for apps and the little " ^ " indicator above the Home button to open the App drawer when you actually want to get into the app drawer:
1. Nova Settings | App Drawer | Gestures | Swipe to open/close = On and
Swipe indicator = Enabled .
2. Nova Settings | Gestures | Home button | Nova | select None, and
"Only on main home page" = disabled .
This setup also seems to disable that "2 pink lines" area immediately above the home button, but below the " ^ " indicator, that Gam3r 4 Life showed in a pic above on 30th August 2017, 12:05 AM.
Regards . . .

camera apk

Some how I have removed my camera short cup from the home screen and I do not know how to bring it back. Any help will be appreciated!
It's not in the app drawer? Find it in the app drawer and touch and hold it until it moves it to the home screen. If you don't see it in your app drawer, go to settings/apps to see if it's still in your installed apps list.
Apps just don't disappear randomly.
I can still see the APK but I can't bring it to the home screen, if I use the search function I can find it is just I can bring it from there to the home screen. I know I didn't disappear , it was my daughter or me

Hold down on it and drag it up to the top of the screen.

Issues with stock launcher and swipe up from home

Anyone else who is using the stock launcher experiencing this (already submitted issue)?
https://forums.oneplus.com/threads/...-not-working-properly-when-in-an-app.1020737/
1. Have "Back, Home - swipe up on the home button -" activated in the "navigation bar & gestures" settings of the device.
2. Open any app on the device
3. Swipe up on home button or on the right side of the Pill navigation bar in order to access recent apps. In short, try accessing the recent apps screen by swiping up fast.
4. Observe that it doesn't work and after swiping a second time, it takes you instantly on the home screen without accessing the "recents apps" screen

Happens to me randomly with stock launcher set as default. With Nova as default it seems to be resolved.
