Managing mobile apps
The iPhone (left) places all apps in its home screen, adding screens as needed. You can move apps around as desired and place any four in the row at bottom that is available in all app screens. The Motorola Droid (right) places apps in a separate window. You can move apps from the window to your home screen by dragging them. However, if the home screen that is currently visible is full, you won't be able to add the app to it; you must first go to a home screen that has room for more app icons. You can also type the name of an app to find it and launch it on the Droid.
