To add an app shortcut to your home screen, follow these steps:
- Touch and hold the app icon. This is the first step in initiating the process.
- Lift your finger. After a short press, release to reveal options. If the app offers shortcuts (quick actions), a list will appear.
- Touch and hold the desired shortcut (if applicable) or the app icon itself. This step ensures you're ready to move the selected item.
- Slide the shortcut (or app icon) to your desired location on the home screen. Drag it to the empty space where you want it to appear.
- Lift your finger to release and place the shortcut. This finalizes the action and adds the shortcut to your home screen.
In summary, the core action is to long-press the app icon, then drag and drop it onto your home screen. If the app offers shortcuts (like quickly composing an email or starting a new note), you'll see those options appear when you long-press; then you can choose to drag one of those shortcuts instead.
