Adding and Removing Widgets Widgets are self-contained applications that reside either in your Widgets tab or on the main or

Removing a Widget

screen.

more space for adding icons, widgets, and more. Touch and hold the icon or widget and then
drag across the screen to move from the main screen to an extended screen.
