Google Drive app icon not showing in Start screen

Hi,
I can see that I have a Google Drive app installed in my Samsung Galaxy Tab, but I can´t find the app icon anywhere so I can easily open it from the Start screen. Every time I want to open it I have to open the search bar and type Drive to access it. Is this how it's supposed to work? Because is very annoying.
How can I make the app icon be shown on the Start screen or in the app drawer?

I need help/advice with new P40 and google

Maybe the Pro version of the phone is more popular, and that's probably what the peeps who wrote the articles had? Have you actually tried the methods described in these articles?

Because installing GMS(Google Mobile Services, i.e. GAPPS) on a Huawei device involves the same files and methods, as long as it's on the current version of EMUI. It doesn't require rooting and modifying the device, and the worse thing that can happen if you screw-up, is you have to factory reset the phone.
Awesome, i have minimum understanding of rooting although i have tried it in the past, i never really got my head round it, I have an adapter coming tomorrow i am going to try and do this https://phandroid.com/2020/07/20/how-to-install-the-google-play-store-on-the-huawei-p40/

Connecting my Pixel 4a to Ford Sync

I think the video you watched was talking about Bluetooth. You have to pair your phone to your car and then it should show up in the Bluetooth section of your phone as "Ford Sync". There's not a special app, as far as I know.

Usually the procedure is to put your car into pairing mode. On every car I've ever paired a phone with there's an "add phone" or "Pair device" option in settings. If you have a touchscreen in the car it's usually a little easier to find, otherwise you'd have to do it with voice commands. Once the car is in pairing mode, open Bluetooth in settings on your phone and it should scan for devices to pair with. Ford sync should be listed. Once you tap on that, you might be asked for a security code. It should either have been already set when you entered pairing mode or it will be displayed on the phone.

This might help.

Thank you, that did the trick - my phone wouldn't recognize the Sync system until I put the car in pairing mode. Thanks so much!
