Adding and Removing Primary Shortcuts

You can change any of your primary shortcuts with the exception of the Apps shortcut. The
primary shortcuts are the bottom row of app shortcuts that remain static on all home screens (by
default Phone, Contacts, Messaging, Internet, and Apps).

Note: Before replacing a primary shortcut, you must first add the replacement shortcut to the
