Opening and Switching Applications
Multi-tasking is easy with Android™ because open applications keep
running even when you open another application. There’s no need to quit
an application before opening another. You can use and switch among
several open applications. Android™ manages each application, stopping
and starting them as needed, to ensure that idle applications don’t
consume resources unnecessarily.
Opening an application
Open an application simply by tapping its icon on the screen.
TIP You can customize your Home screen with the application icons you use most often.
Applications are located on the Applications screen, but you can copy any application
icon to your Home screen for faster, more convenient access. No matter where the icon
is, on the Applications screen or your Home screen, just tap it to open and use it.
