Home Screen is a customizable screen that provides information

about notifications and device status, and allows access to

application Widgets.

Extended Home Screens extend beyond the current visible

screen width to provide more space for adding icons, widgets,

and other customization features.

There are six available extended screens (panels) each of
which may be populated with its own shortcuts or widgets.
These screens share the use of the five Primary Shortcuts.

The current screen is indicated at the bottom by a white

(Home or extended).

Shortcuts are icons that launch available device applications

such as Camera, YouTube, Voice talk, Contacts, Phone, Email,

Play Store, etc. These function the same as shortcuts on your

computer.

screens, the majority can also be found within the Applications
