Hi,
I was wondering how do I add an app to launchpad?
I've tried to drag the app from applications in Finder to the Launchpad icon on the dock, but it does not work and I've also tried to drag the app from the dock to the launchpadd icon on the dock, but that does not work either.
What else can I do?

Add apps to Launchpad
Apps that you download from the App Store automatically appear in Launchpad.
Add an app that you didn’t download from the App Store: Drag the app to the Applications folder in the Finder on your Mac. The app is then shown in Launchpad.

It also does a basic check of your startup disk, similar to using First Aid in Disk Utility.
And it deletes some system caches, including font caches and
the kernel cache, which are automatically created again as needed.
Thank you for your answer, but I have already tried that.
The app (spotify) is already in the application folder in Finder, but it still does not show in Launchpad.
