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 access. No matter where the icon is, on the Applications
screen or your Home screen, just tap it to open and use it.

use it.
