Home screen refers to the top-level interface on a mobile device from which apps and other features are accessed.

On both Android and iOS, devices boot to the home screen, which is the primary navigation and information point. This is similar to a desktop on Windows or OS X computers.

A homescreen is typically composed of app icons and widgets. Choosing or tapping on an app icon launches the associated app. Widgets display live, auto-updating content such as weather, inbox contents, or news headlines.

A homescreen can consist of several pages that the user can navigate among, typically with a swipe gesture.

Android's homescreen interface is heavily customizable, allowing the user to change the look and feel of the device to their tastes.

Third party apps available on Google Play and other app stores can extensively re-theme the homescreen, and even mimic the look of other operating systems, such as Windows Phone.[38] Most manufacturers, and some wireless carriers, customise the look and feel of their Android devices to differentiate their products from the competition.
