Getting Started
IV. YOUR HOMESCREEN
Think of your home screen as your desktop. What goes on the home screen
is up to you. You can fill the space with any combination of shortcuts, widgets,
and folders you like. Some preinstalled shortcut icons will appear at the
bottom, and a Google Search Widget appears at the top. You have five
customizable home screens in total.
When you power up your Cruz for the first time, you’ll see the main home-
screen panel. This panel is typically centered; you can access additional
panels on either side of the main one by sliding your finger left or right.
Tapping the dots in the bottom left and right screen will also shift home
screens.
When in landscape view, there are 3 shortcut buttons
on the right hand side of the screen. When in portrait-
view, these buttons will appear on the bottom of your
screen. The first is shortcut button to your web browser.
It is designated by a globe. Next is a shortcut to the
application panel, which shows you all the apps you
currently have installed on the device. The icon for this
is 4 rows of tiny squares. The last button is a shortcut to
your settings panel, which is the same grey dial icon as
the Wi-Fi settings icon on the homescreen.
On either side of these nav buttons are small white
“dots.” Tapping these will cycle through your various
home screens. You have five (5) fully customizable “home
screens” in total.
