The Status Bar
A Status Bar runs along the top of the NOOK touchscreen. The Status Bar looks like this when GlowLight is turned
on:
The Status Bar with GlowLight turned on.
The Status Bar appears on the Home Screen, the Library, the Shop, the Search screen, and on Settings screens. A
slightly different version appears in books or periodicals when you open the Reading Tools.
The Left Side of the Status Bar
The left side of the Status Bar presents:
•
An open book icon that returns you to the book, magazine, or newspaper you were most recently reading.
The Right Side of the Status Bar
The right side of the status bar presents:
•
A digital clock showing the current time:
•
A lightbulb icon that indicates whether GlowLight is turned on or off:
•
A wireless connection indicator:
•
A battery charge indicator:
The lightbulb icon indicates whether GlowLight is turned on or off. If GlowLight is on, an icon representing an illumi-
nated lightbulb icon appears in the Status Bar. If GlowLight is turned off, an icon representing a crossed-out lightbulb
appears instead.
The wireless connection indicator displays a stack of concentric curves, indicating the strength of your NOOK’s
connection to a local Wi-Fi network. The higher the stack of curves, the stronger the connection. In general, it’s best
to have at least 2 or 3 curves showing to have a reliable connection. If no curves are shown, the NOOK is not con-
nected to a network.
By default, the NOOK status bar displays time on a 12-hour clock. To change the time or to switch to a 24-hour
clock, set the 24-hour clock option on the Time Settings screen.
