I can't say. "Oh! What a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive"

Volume down and power button at the same time.

How did you get folders?

How do you enable the weather on the home screen? I can't find it in the settings.

You just drag one app on top of another and it'll create a folder. Drag the app away and it'll remove the folder.

I tried 27 different things over the past hour and never thought of something as simple as that. Thank you. Is there a smilie on this forum for putting a paper bag on your own head?

Thanks again!

Thanks Q! That was another question I had, though I normally use 1weather. At any rate here's my screen now to get this back on topic. This will change in the morning (kids will be waking up soon)

Don't forget you can give the folder a name if you tap just below the folder icon. It'll pop up a text box and you can name the folder whatever you want.

EDIT: Oh I see you've already started doing that. Cool.

Is there a way to set the weather widget off?

Make sure you're on the most recent version of the launcher, give it permission for location, and refresh Google Now. I'm sure it's not supposed to be this complicated, but...

Here's my home screen. I have an agenda widget that appears when I click on the date.

Received my XL yesterday and have enjoyed setting it up and getting it ready. I tried the Pixel launcher for a bit, but just couldn't get down with it. So, I installed Nova Prime. A real simple setup for me. One page with a folder for most used apps. Swipe gesture to get to my app drawer and a few other swipe gestures to activate a certain apps. Sunrise Icon Pack with one of the Google Wallpapers and Fox Zooper Widget.

Simple with Google daily wallpaper

How are you finding it so far on the Pixel? Everything else still work good (assistant, navigation, notifications, etc...)?

I've been trying to give Pixel Launcher and Google Keyboard a fair shot, but I'm starting to think Nova Launcher and SwiftKey are gonna need to come back soon...
