missing app

<< < (2/2)

grumpy old man:
Yes it is the launcher I have lost.  Can't find in play store.  None of the icons in suggested article exist on my phone.

The loss of launcher is not a big deal as apps are still on phone, I just wanted to see if it was possible to get it back.

Ronski:
It's not the launcher you've lost, the launcher is what controls the desktop, it's just the app drawer icon that's missing. It may help if you say what phone you've got and what version of Android it's running.

Try this, yours may vary depending on phone and Android version.

tubaman:
From your description it sounds like you've just lost a group of apps from your home screen.
You can recreate the group by dragging the apps onto your home screen and then dragging one on top of another to recreate the group. Then drag the remaining apps into the new group. You can then name the group and tapping on its name.

grumpy old man:
Thanks for the various replies. 

Ronski - Thanks for link, but my phone, a motorola doesn't have same options as samsung.

Tubaman - brilliant that works, very simple.
