Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge: How to Change the Grid Size on Home Screen in Android 5.1.1 Lollipop

By default, a home screen in your Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge has 4 rows and 4 columns which mean you'll be able to add or display up to 16 1x1 widgets or shortcuts to apps in a home screen. When needed, you can change the size of the grid on your home screen so you can add or display more or less widgets or shortcuts to apps.

You can do so by using the following steps:
  1. While you're in a home screen, pinch the screen using two fingers or long tap on an empty area.
  2. Tap the Screen grid icon at the bottom of the screen.
  3. Select the required grid size you want to use. There are three grid sizes available:
    • 4x4: select this option to divide your home screen becomes 4 columns and 4 rows so you can add or display up to 16 items. This option is enabled by default.
    • 4x5: select this option to divide your home screen becomes 4 columns and 5 rows so you can add or display up to 20 items.
    • 5x5: select this option to divide your home screen becomes 5 columns and 5 rows so you can add or display up to 25 items.
