Zusammenfassung: | Methods and apparatuses for arranging applications for a mobile device are described, in which the mobile device includes a set of applications. The mobile device may identify certain applications that a user of the mobile device is likely to activate, based on a particular environmental setting. The environmental setting may include a present location determined by a GPS, a present date and time, a present day, or the like. The mobile device may display graphical elements (e.g., icons) corresponding to the identified applications on a screen of the mobile device such that the user may conveniently activate the identified applications. In some embodiments, the mobile device may sort individual applications of the set based on quantities and/or lengths of activations to identify such applications. The mobile device may enlarge the icons by a predetermined factor before displaying them on the screen. |
