When I put a shortcut icon on the Home Screen, it is automatically labeled, as shown in pic. This is great. :D

But the 'Favorite' Icons at bottom have no labels. :( This is not great. How can I get the labels to appear?

Thanks

If I'm not mistaken, currently only with a third party launcher such as Nova, ... etc...
Here what it looks like ... with the Nova launcher...

Thanks, the attachment isn't displaying. But I sure hope you're wrong. I would be shocked if I couldn't get labels onto the Fav Icons.

LOL, it defies logic that those Fav Icons aren't labeled automatically. Thanks for the tip about a work-around! :D

Yup... it would be better to replace the UI with Nova as default launcher...
Be nice right lol
Whats good if you dont want to download 3rd party launcher and use the stock one with little more customization u can , the stock launcher not that bad

You shouldn't, if it's the default .... it doesn't matter though, I absolutely agree with your option ...

Great... maybe Samsung developers see it this way .. as a feature for UI 5..

Once I get a little more into this phone, I will likely try out that Nova Launcher app, thanks for that tip!!!! :D

Thanks to all for the replies and sage advice.
