Manage applications in Card view

Card view displays open applications as small cards so that you can easily scroll through them and drag them to change their order.

When you have no open applications, your smartphone displays Card view automatically. When no cards are open, Card view shows only the Just Type field (see ), your wallpaper (see Change your wallpaper) and Quick Launch (see Open an application in Quick Launch).
