Section 5: Applications
This section contains a description of each application that is
available on the Apps screen, its function, and how to
navigate through that particular application. If the application
is described in another section of this user manual, then a
cross reference to that description is provided.

Manage Applications

The Apps screen displays all applications installed on your
tablet, including apps you download and install.
From Apps, you can change the way apps appear on the
screen, uninstall apps you have downloaded, and share apps
with friends. When you install new apps, new screens are
added to hold them.
Tip: To open applications quickly, add the icons of frequently
used applications to one of the Home screens, if it is not
there by default. For details, see “Shortcuts and Widgets”
on page29.

Update Applications

Once you have registered your device and signed into your
Google account (see “Set Up Your Gmail Account” on
page84), you may see the Up dates Available
notification in the Status Bar if there is a new version of one
or more apps available or, when you open an application that
is preloaded on your device, an Update Available message
may be displayed.
To update the applications:
1. Touch the top of the screen and swipe downward.
The Notification Panel displays.
2. Touch Updates available.
