    To begin, turn the phone on by pressing the power button located on the top of the phone
    .
    Once the phone has been activated, we'll see the lock screen.

    The grid size is currently three horizontal lines with three applications in each line
    .
    We can change that to four applications in one horizontal line. The application icons are currently quite spaced out. This can be useful with more space between the individual icons, but we also have to scroll down more to see all of the apps.

    Press down on the word "Apps" at the top left corner of the screen
    .
    This brings up three options. It does not matter which one of these options is active because they all have the same grid setting.

    The top option, "3 x 4" has a blue circle
    .
    This means that option is highlighted and is the current option we are using.

    If we press down on that circle across from "4 x 5", it will immediately change the grid size and take us out of that option
    .

    Now, it shows four applications in a horizontal line
    .
    There are also five lines, so we don't have to scroll down as far to see all of the apps. However, they are closer together, and this may cause problems for some people.
