How to move apps from one screen to the next?

In order to organize a bit the screens after installing several apps, how can we move them from one screen to the next? I've found it possible to place them in the lower bar and then replace them into the required screen but that's very slow... Any other way?

Also, is it possible to place the apps where we want and not get them automatically reorganized (blanks filled)? Thanks,

So you are using Ubuntu, you can right click the window title or the firefox icon on the unity launcher and move it to another workspace or drag it to another screen.

I'm sorry, my question is about the Firefox OS, on a ZTE Phone. I have no problems with amazing Ubuntu.

So you have 2 screens? does the app switcher (holding the home button) work with dragging?

Sorry I guess the correct terminology would be 'virtual desktops'. You pass from one virtual desktop to another swiping left or right on the phone. I would like to switch conveniently an app (icon) from one virtual desktop to another.

So similar to "Workspaces" in Ubuntu, yeah i dont think that is possible right now, but always can be a future feature.
