Opening and Switching Applications
Multi-tasking is easy with Android
™
. Opened applications can keep
running in the background when you open another application.
There’s no need to quit an application before opening another. You
can easily switch among several open applications. Android manages
each application, pausing and starting them as needed to ensure
that unused applications don’t waste your device's resources.
To open an application:
●
Simply tap its icon on the screen.
To open multiple applications:
1. Tap an application icon to open it.
2. Press .
3. Tap and tap the icon for the other application you want
to open.

Note
You can customize your Home screen with shortcuts to the applications
you use most often. Applications are located on the Applications
screen, but you can add an application shortcut to your Home screen
for faster access. No matter where the icon is, on the Applications
screen or your Home screen, just touch it to open and use it. See
Adding Application Icons to the Homescreen for more information.
