Extended Home screen

The Home screen actually extends beyond the screen width. After pressing HOME, slide your

fingertip left and right along the screen to reveal the full width of the Home screen. This additional

space gives you more room to customize Home with applications, shortcuts, and widgets.

Create Home screen shortcuts and

widgets

1 Start from the Home screen (press the HOME button

to get oriented). Then touch & hold the screen with

your fingertip. The

Add to Home menu opens.

2 Select an

Application shortcut, a Shortcut to some

of your saved information (such as a playlist, a Web

bookmark, or folder), a

Widget (a clock, picture

frame, or Google search bar), or

Wallpaper for your Home screen.

3 The application, shortcut, folder, or widget appears on the screen. (Read more about folders in

“Create and delete folders on the Home screen” on page 23.) If you selected Wallpaper, you’ll

be asked to select a picture.

Tip: To create an application shortcut quickly, touch the application tab to reveal all the application

icons, then touch & hold an application icon. Its shortcut is added to the Home screen; close the

application tab to see it.

Remove items from the Home screen

To remove a shortcut or widget from your Home screen, touch & hold the item to enter “move mode”

(read more in the next section below). The application tab turns into a Trash button. Drag the item to

the Trash button and release. You’ll know when your item is in the Trash because the item

and the tab will turn red:

1 ... 21 22 23 ... 141
