  2. Tap the switches next to the apps you wish to enable on your cover screen.

 

Option 2:

Notes:

  • When you add an app, an Apps widget is automatically created that consists of the executable app.
  • Apps found in the “Apps allowed on cover screen” feature include (but are subject to change): Messages (Samsung), KakaoTalk, Line, WhatsApp, Messages (Google), YouTube, Netflix, Naver Maps, Maps (Google), and WeChat.
  • Samsung Lab and Good Lock are not officially supported, so apps found through these features may not function as expected when launched from the cover screen.
