To stop this behavior, open the Market on your tablet. Select My apps from the upper-right corner of your screen.
Select the ‘pull-down’ menu from the upper-right corner of your “My apps” screen.
Remove the check from the box labelled Add shortcuts for new app.
Now when you install an App from the Market, it won’t automatically create a shortcut on your Android Tablet desktop!
- You have your Android Tablet (or other Honeycomb device) home screens set the way you like them.
