realme How to Manage Apps & Shortcuts on Home Screen

To add app shortcuts to the home screen, tap and hold an app in the app drawer and then drag it upwards.

Note: App icons can be freely moved on the home screen.

To keep the overview or to customize the home screen of the realme smartphone, app icons can be freely moved or removed.
This is done either by tapping and holding a single icon or via the edit mode of the home screen.

Note: When removing an app icon, the app is not uninstalled and the corresponding app data remains untouched.

We can specify whether newly downloaded apps should be automatically added to the home screen on the realme smartphone.

We can specify whether updated apps should be displayed with a small dot next the app icon on the home screen.

The app icons on the home screen of the realme smartphone can be automatically arranged or filled after, for example, an app has been removed or uninstalled.

If the app lock is enabled on the realme smartphone, we can hide the desired or locked apps on the home screen. To do this, we simply navigate to the app lock settings, select a locked app and activate the menu item Hide home screen icon.

The hidden apps can be accessed via the correspondingly set password, which is entered via the phone app's dialpad.

Another way to gain access to the hidden apps is to quick launch them via a set fingerprint.

Note: The privacy password is always required to configure the app lock.
