General question

Dec 27, 2014 12:32AM PST

I just got a Samsung Galaxy S tablet for Christmas. I have never used a tablet before. I was just curious if its possible to remove icons from the opening screen (the desktop if you will). I downloaded some apps and its getting cluttered having all the icons on the page. (I can barely see my wallpaper anymore).

A long press on the icon should bring up a delete sign.
