Adding application to Home screen
You can add an application icon to the Home screen by touching and holding it on the Launcher screen
until it vibrates and then dragging it towards the Home icon on the bottom of the screen. All extended
Home screens will appear in small version. Choose the Home screen page you want to add the application
and lift your finger.
To close the Launcher tap the Home icon on the Launcher or the Home button. The Launcher closes
automatically if you touch an icon to open its application or if you move an icon from the Launcher to the
Home screen.
Opening and switching applications
To open an application, tap an application's icon on the Launcher or tap on application’s icon on the Home
screen.
Switch to a recently used application
Press & hold the Home
button
A small window opens with icons of applications that youve used
recently.
Touch an icon to open its application
OR
Press Back to return to the current application
When you open an application, the other applications youve been using dont stop; they keep on running:
playing music, opening webpages and so on. You can quickly switch among your applications to work with
several at once.
The Android operating system and applications work together to ensure that applications you aren’t using
don’t consume resources unnecessarily, stopping and starting them as needed. For this reason, there’s no
need to stop applications unless you’re certain that one you downloaded is misbehaving.
Shortcuts
Tap the icon on the bottom of the screen to view all applications on
your device. You see all applications by sliding your finger horizontally
across the screen to go to the left or right side of this screen.
If you want to return back to Home screen, tab on the Home icon
on the bottom of the screen.
