HOME PAGE WALLPAPER

The wallpaper is the background picture on the home page. You 
can change this to other designs in the library or you can use one 
of your favourite digital photos as in the example shown.

To change the wallpaper:

Touch  and  hold  the  screen  in  an  area  where  there  are  no 

• 

application icons.

The ‘Choose wallpaper’ pane will open.

Choose from ‘Gallery’ (your own digital photos), ‘Live Wallpaper‘ 

• 

(moving images, maps etc) or ‘Wallpaper’ (still images).
Select a picture from the location you chose.

• 
If you chose to use one of your own pictures -

Blue lines will now mark two areas of the photo that will be used for 
the wallpaper in portrait and landscape orientation.

You can drag the visible area around the photo and change 

• 

the size of the marked areas.
Once the photo is set the way you want it, touch ‘CROP’ in the 

• 

top right corner of the screen.

The picture will now be cropped and set as your wallpaper.

PERSONALISING THE HOME PAGE APPLICATIONS

Moving Home Page application icons:

New  applications  will  be  added  to  your  Home  Page  as  you  get 
them. If you want to change the position of application icons on 
the Home Page -

Touch and hold the application icon.

• 

Drag the icon to a new position.

• 
NOTE: If you drag an icon beyond the Home page, another page 
will be revealed.

Adding application icons to the Home Page:

The example shows some regularly used applications added to a 
personalised Home page.
If you want to add more applications to your Homepage, refer to 
the next page where the All applications screen is covered in more 
detail.

Removing Home Page application icons:

Touch and hold the application icon.

• 

Drag the icon over ‘X Remove’ at the top of the screen.

• 

The icon will be removed from the Home Page, but will still be available 
to launch the application on the All Applications screen.

Widgets:

You can also personalise your home page by adding widgets.
For example, the Tesco recipes widget visible on the Home page 
illustration is a widget that shows a selection of recipes.
To read more about finding widgets and installing them, refer to 
the Widgets section on page 13.
