I can not get back the clock on home screen. I have tried rebooting my phone, changing the wallpaper and theme, have gone through all settings options, and have followed internet video. I don't know how to reset it. Any suggestions?

Hello, welcome to the Samsung community. I understand your concerns on this situation and I am happy to help. 

 

The Clock app offers features for keeping track of time and setting alarms. To find the Clock app, swipe up on a Home screen to access the Apps screen, and then navigate to and tap Clock. If you have uninstalled the Samsung Clock, you can reinstall it from the Galaxy Store. 

 

You can create shortcuts for almost everything you want on your phone. Add shortcuts to the Lock or Home screens, and access your favorite apps without all the hassle. Available screens and settings may vary by wireless service provider, software version, and phone model.

 

There are multiple ways to add shortcuts to the Home screen:

 

Touch and hold the app until a menu displays, and then tap Add to Home.

 

Touch and hold the app until the Home screen is displayed, and then release the app in your desired location.

 

Touch and hold the app, drag it to the top or bottom of the screen, and then release the app in your desired location.

He follow directions on web site. But also check to see if your screen is locked. If it is it will not display clock. You need to unlock it .
