Can I stop installed apps adding their icon to my homescreen? Currently every app I install adds a launcher icon to the homescreen.  As my default homescreens are nicely arranged and as a result full, it creates another home screen 'page' to put the icons on.  

This is really very annoying as I have to remove both the icon and the newly created screen on every install.  

Is there any way to stop apps adding a launcher to the home screen by default?
From Google Play Store application:


Go into Settings
Uncheck Auto-add shortcuts


That will prevent Google play store from creating shortcuts to the home screen each time a new app is installed.
