The Home Screen
In Android, the
home screen
is the central launchpad for all of the HT1’s most frequently used
features and applications. The home screen can consist of multiple screens (on the HT1 you can add
additional screens to the right of the home screen).
The home screen contains the
status bar
on top of the screen and the
favorites tray
at the bottom,
on top of the
Google Assistant
button. The status bar displays various information icons. Swipe
down to expand it and show more detail. The favorites tray can have up to five (changeable) favorites.
Tap and hold the Google Assistance button that allows you to ask voice questions.
Between the status bar and the favorites tray are apps icons (which can also be
folders
containing
multiple apps) and
widgets
. Tapping on apps icons launches the app. Touch and hold to rearrange
icons. Widgets perform functions, like showing the time, weather, news, or act as shortcuts.
