Just like on the iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad, you can re-arrange the icons on the 6th generation and 7th generation iPod nano to present your favorite apps on the homescreen. Here's how.
Difficulty: Easy
Time Required: A minute or less

Here's How:

  1. Wake the nano by clicking the sleep/wake button on the top right edge.
  2. If you're not already there, get to the nano's homescreen by swiping to the right until it appears.
  3. Tap the app you want to move and hold it until the icons begin shaking.
  4. Drag the apps to where you want them. This can be on the same screen or to a new screen. To move an app to another screen, drag it to the right or left edge of the screen. While the nano only comes pre-configured with a couple of screens, you can add more by continuing to drag apps to the edge of the last screen (that is, if you have two screens, create a third by dragging an app of the right edge of the second screen).
  5. When the icons are moved into the positions you want, click the sleep/wake button (6th gen. model) or the home button (7th gen. model) to save the new arrangement.
