Customize the Home screen

The top row of the Home screen is a great place for your favorite apps. When you highlight an app in the top row, you get shortcuts that can take you to content without opening the app first.

You can decide which apps appear in the top row, arrange them in the order you prefer, and delete apps that appear on the Home screen.

Rearrange apps. Using the Touch surface on the Siri Remote, highlight an app, then press and hold until the app starts to jiggle. Swipe to move the app to a new location, then press the Touch surface again to save the new arrangement.

Pick your top-row apps. Move your favorite apps to the top row of the Home screen. You may get additional options and shortcuts when you highlight them.

Delete an app. Use the Touch surface to select the app you want to delete, then press and hold until the app starts to jiggle. Press the Play/Pause button for more options, then select Delete.

Deleting an app also deletes its data. You can download any app again that you’ve purchased on the App Store, free of charge, but the data may not be restored.
