Customising the Home screen
The Home screen can be extended to the right. To scroll through
the Home screen and Extended screens swipe right or left. You
can customise these screens with images, shortcuts, apps and
widgets.
To change the wallpaper or add a widget, press and hold on one
of the screens until a pop-up window appears containing these
options:
·
Wallpapers: select the image you want to use as a background
for the Home Screen and Extended Screens then tap Set
wallpaper to confirm. If the selected image is too large it will
need to be cropped.
· Widgets: select the widgets you want to have on the Home
Screen. They are distributed vertically and in alphabetical
order to make them easier to find. Widgets belonging to
the same app are positioned horizontally for more clarity.
Long-pressing the sidebar displays the first letter of the
applications, facilitating their identification.
· Settings: two options for customising the Home screen are found here.
· Display Google application: This function is enabled by default. Swipe the screen
to the right to access Google Now, where you can view cards and perform searches.
You will have to configure this beforehand by going to Settings > Google > Search >
Your feed and ticking the Menu option box.
· Allow home screen rotation: by default, the desktop is configured to be used
vertically. Enable this option to use it horizontally. In this way you can rotate both
the home screen and the apps drawer.
To create a shortcut to an app or contact go to the apps drawer, press on the app’s icon and
drag it to the desired position on the desktop.
