Step by step

1. 

   Touch and hold an empty spot, then tap Layout

   The Home screen goes into edit mode with Widgets, Wallpapers & style, Layout and Home screen settings along the bottom, and Done at the top right.

   Done

2. 

   Pick a grid and tap Apply

   The Layout panel shows 4×6, 5×6 and 5×7 with a live preview. Apply is at the top right; Cancel at the top left keeps the old grid.

   Done

3. 

   Check the Home screen

   With 5×6, ours fitted five icons in a row. The Storage cleaner widget kept its size, Weather moved up next to Tools and Featured, and the dock kept four icons.

   Done

If you do not see this option

• Want more rows? Turn on Hide icon names below the grids. On ours the choices then changed to 4×6, 4×7, 5×6 and 5×9; the page says: Your Home screen layout will change.

  

• What does Hide icon names look like? After Apply, ours showed the icons with no names underneath. We turned it off again.

  

• Back to the old grid? Open Layout again, pick the old grid and tap Apply. Ours went back to four icons in a row.

  

• Bigger icons? OPPO says ColorOS lets you adjust the size and shape of app icons. Source: Customize Your Way with ColorOS

If this does not work

• Icons too small? Go back to 4×6; 5×7 and 5×9 fit the most icons.
• Changed your mind before applying? Tap Cancel at the top left of the Layout panel; the grid stays as it was.
• Text too small as well? Change the font size; see change font size.
