  4. When you find the Remember The Milk widget you wish to add, tap on it and hold.
  5. You'll be prompted to drag the widget to your desired location on the Home screen.
  6. If you're adding a 2x2, 3x3, 4x4, or badge widget, select the view you'd like it to show and tap Save.

On some other devices, including many HTC devices:

  1. Go to your device's Home screen.
  2. Press the add icon in the bottom right.
