About organising application icons

Application icons can appear on the Home screen or in folders on the Home screen. If you cannot see all your application icons, they might be hidden. You can make all your application icons visible on the Home screen or in folders by selecting Show All Icons from the Home screen menu.

You can reorder application icons to change which icons appear first on the Home screen. You can also create and delete folders, change the folder icon style for folders that you create and move application icons into folders and out of folders.

You can also select which panels appear on the Home screen by selecting Manage Panels from the Home screen menu.
