Using Your Mini 3i Smartphone
Accessing and Using Other
Applications
In addition to the applications that ship with
your phone for communication, productivity, and
entertainment, you can download applications
from the online sources provided by your
service carrier, or from other sources on the
Internet.
Regardless of the applications you plan to use,
there are a few short steps and tips that apply to
all applications:
To browse and select an application to use, •
you must access the Home screen. If your
phone is in a sleep or hibernate mode with
an active screensaver, tap and hold the
moving circle, and drag it to the gray circle
at the bottom of the screen.
To open a program, tap an icon once.
•
To view all of the application and shortcut •
icons on your screen, you may need to swipe
your finger across the screen in a rapid
motion to move the focus from right to left,
and so forth.
To move or delete an icon, press and hold
•
the icon, and follow the instructions on the
screen.
NOTE: Icons of certain applications may be
locked in position by the service carrier.
To add an application or shortcut, press and •
hold an empty space on the Home screen
and follow the instructions that appear on
the screen.
To protect your applications, settings, and
•
data, it is recommended that you back up the
information regularly to a microSD card.
NOTE: For information on backing up data,
see the User’s Manual on the Dell Support
website at supportapj.dell.com.
