Change Home Screen Settings on Galaxy S8 & S8+
When it comes to your Home screen, customization is the name of the game. You can change it up by switching the layout, resizing the grid, and you can even bring back the old All Apps button if you want. You do you.
The available screens and settings may vary by wireless service provider and software version.
