Quick start: Home screen

The home screen gives you all your latest information

in one place. It’s what you see when you turn on the

phone or touch Home from a menu. It’s basically

like this:

Note: Your home screen might look a little different.

The home screen extends beyond what you see on

the screen to give you more room for adding

shortcuts, widgets, and more. Flick the home screen

left and right to see more panels or to add widgets or

shortcuts.

Widgets

A widget is small app on the home screen that

typically displays information such as weather, news,

and social networking updates. You can add a widget,

such as a clock, music player, or a calendar that shows

upcoming appointments. To open a widget, touch it.

To add a widget, touch an empty spot on the home

screen. (You can also touch Menu > Add

>Widgets.) If your home screen is full, you won’t see

the add option. You’ll need to move or delete widgets

or shortcuts to make room.
