Creating Shortcuts
Shortcuts are different than the current Home screen Widgets
that only launch an application. Shortcuts activate a feature,
action, or launch an application.
Note: To move a shortcut from one screen to another, it must first be deleted
from its current screen. Navigate to the new screen, then add the
shortcut.
Adding a shortcut from the Applications Menu
1. Press to activate the Home screen.
2. Navigate to the desired Home Page.
3. Tap to display your current applications.
4. Scroll through the list and locate your desired application.
5. Touch and hold the on-screen icon. This creates an
immediate shortcut of the selected icon and closes the
Applications tab. The new shortcut then appears to hover
over the Home screen.
6. While still holding the on-screen icon, position it on the
current page. Once complete, release the screen to lock
the new shortcut into its new position on the current
screen.
Adding a shortcut via the Add to Home screen
1. Press to activate the Home screen.
2. Touch and hold on an empty area of the Home screen.
3. From the Add to Home screen window tap Shortcuts.
4. Tap a selection from the available list:
• Applications
