homescreen
Phone's starting view
The homescreen is the main display on a smartphone, tablet, or similar device—the screen you see when you unlock the device or press the home button.
It typically shows app icons, widgets, and wallpaper.
I moved the weather app to my homescreen for quick access.
Also spelled as two words: home screen.
