    Editing Startscrreen/Setting Startscreen Default


    I'm curious to know if there's utility out there that will allow you to edit/set the layout of the Win10 start screen. Also a way to set the default tile size. I'm slowing (very slowly) growing accustomed to the start screen (as opposed to just the start menu), but find the standard, larger blocks take up a lot of room.

    Any help/direction is appreciated.

    Lumia - missing features

    People tile is on the startscreen by default.. It should be in the app list so you can tap/hold then pin to start .



    In my previous comments I did assume you had this as it is there by default.

    No startscreen on Lumia 950

    I recently bought a Lumia 950, I set it up, but it seems like it doesn't have a startscreen. I just get the app-list and I can't get to the startscreen in any way (swipe right or by pressing the windows button). Even after a few updates (currently running
    1703) and a few soft resets the startscreen is nowhere in sight. Is there anything I can do to get it? I never encountered this problem with any Lumia I had in my hands.
