Opening Other Apps While on a Call
It’s easy to multitask on your DROID. This is especially useful when you are on a phone
call. For example, you can press the
Home
button to jump back to the
Home
screen
and start another app, or long-press the
Home
button to jump to a recently used app.
Some common examples of useful multitasking while on a call include the following:
Checking and scheduling a new
Calendar
event.
Looking up a name, address, or phone number in the
Contacts
app.
Finding a message in your
app to use during the call.
Getting Back to the Phone From Any App
Returning to your phone call from any app is easy. Follow these steps to get back to
your call in progress from the
Home
screen or any other app on your DROID (see Figure
7–4):
1.
Start by swiping your finger down from the top status bar.
2.
Tap the
Phone
call in progress to return to the current call or tap the
Red phone
icon to hang up.
You can also return to a call by long-pressing the
Home
button to bring up your
Recent
window of apps, and then selecting the
Dialer
icon.
