Screen settings

Use the Screen settings to configure brightness and other screen settings.

Brightness: Opens a dialog for adjusting the brightness of the screen. You can check Automatic brightness to set the tablet to adjust the brightness automatically, using the tablet’s built-in light sensor. Or uncheck that option to use the slider to set a brightness level you want at all times when using the tablet. For the longest battery life between charges, use the dimmest comfortable brightness.

Auto-rotate screen: Check to automatically switch the orientation of the screen as you turn the tablet sideways or upright.

Animation: Opens a dialog where you can set whether you want to enjoy animated transitions for some effects (such as opening menus), for all supported effects (including when navigating from screen to screen), or to enjoy a tablet without any optional animation effects (this setting does not control animation in all applications).

Timeout: Opens a dialog where you can set how long to wait after you touch the screen or press a button before the screen darkens. For the longest battery life between charges, use the shortest convenient timeout.

Location and security settings

Use the Location and Security settings to configure how you want the tablet to determine your location (this affects accuracy) and how you want to share your location with Google and others. You can also configure settings that help secure your tablet and its data.

Use wireless networks: Check to use information from Wi-Fi and mobile networks to determine your approximate location, for use in Maps and other geographically aware applications, when you search, and so on. When you check this option, you’re asked whether you consent to sharing your location anonymously with Google’s location service, to help improve the service.
