Can the App Icons be locked in place

[gcraig57]

Here's my problem I carry my phone in my front pocket of my pants. So from time to time when I look at my phone the home screen now is set to the second page of apps. My phone app is on my home page but sometimes I have to search for the icon because it has moved. So here my question is there a way to lock the icon/apps in place so they can move with out unlocking them? I have tried to find a app for this but my search only address' the lock screen.

You could install a 3rd party launcher such as the excellent Nova Launcher or Nova Launcher Prime from the Play Store. This has the ability to lock the home screens so that they cannot be altered after you have set them up and this feature was designed for exactly your problem.
