Hi Harry, Placing the Compass and Clock on the Home screen is entirely possible but separating the Timer and such out of the Clock is not. The Alarm, Stop-Watch and Timer are all built-in to the Clock app and thus cannot be pulled out.
To move items out of the Utilities folder, double-tap and hold on the item until VO says moving said item. Don't let go then drag your finger towards any edge of the screen, usually I go left or upper left. Vo will say something like "Moving outside folder,", just lift your finger at that point and it will be taken out of the folder. Press your Home button once to take it out of Edit mode. You can press it again to close the folder then use the same process to move it to wherever you wish on the Home screen. Be careful not to drop it in another folder or on another item. If it's dropped on another item, a new folder will be created. If you move to the right spot, VO will announce the Row and Column and you simply lift your finger to drop it there. Items after the place that you drop it will be pushed out of the way. Also, note that if your page is already full, items can be pushed to the next page. HTH. Later...
