How To Move Voice Recorder To Home Screen...

[Angie Rose Elizabeth]

I've the HTC 10 (Android 7.0) and I want the voice recorder to be visible on my home screen. How do I do that?

Hi there! Usually, just go to the App Drawer, tap and hold on the Voice Recorder app and then drop on an empty space on your Home Screen. Alternatively you could tap and hold on an empty space on the Home Screen and select ADD SHORTCUT, then select your desired app from the list (not sure if HTC Phones support this, but they should).

Thank-you for replying back, I really appreciate it! Sadly, the only way I can kind of have access to it is when I go into "Settings" and "App manager", but even with that, I can't find any way to move it to where I want it to be.

Have you checked if the app isn't 'hidden' from your Drawer? If that's the case, yeah, you'd only have access to it through the App Manager. Also, if the app isn't really an app (I know, it's weird, but some system apps are like that), they don't have a direct access to them. I don't think that's the case here, but who knows...

How do I check if it's hidden from my Drawer? Wow, I wish some of this stuff wasn't so dang complicated.

It depends on the launcher you're using. I don't have an HTC phone to test so I don't know if that's even possible on the HTC stock launcher (if you're using a 3rd party one like Nova, there's a 'hidden apps' section in the app's settings).

So, if you open your Application Drawer (not the settings, the drawer where all your phone's available apps are listed), you don't see the Voice Recorder?

You mean, this?
