There were 2 home screen launchers in LG Tribute 5 (predecessor), both came with an app drawer. In Tribute HD one more launcher is added, it is without the app drawer, and is made the default home screen launcher.
So, as soon as you boot into LG Tribute HD, you realize the app menu button is missing. As we’re used to it since the early days of Android, it feels awkward without it. However, there is no need to worry as we can get it back in few simple steps.
The only thing that we’ve to do is, go to Home Screen Settings and choose the appropriate launcher. Follow the screenshots below to get back the app drawer –
