The Home screen is the main screen of 2 or 3
working screens. On these screens you place
your Favorite APPs, with the most used on the
home screen. The larger o the 3 white dots show
which screen is active.
You can add further working screens if needed.
If you have APPs which you seldom use you can
remove them from the working screens by tap and
hold, then drag to the delete bin which appears at
the top.
This does not uninstall the APP, simply removes
the copy from the working screen.
Generally there are at least 2 Home screens.
The set of 5 icons at the bottom of the working screens
can be changed, but these are some of the usual ones.
Phone Contacts All APPs Gmail Internet
The “All APPs” screens are the storeroom of all APPs
currently installed on your mobile.
You can open an APP from there, but for APPs you use
frequently, it is desirable to tap, hold and drag onto one
of the working screens.
This puts a copy on the working screen for quick access.
There could be 2 or more screens of all APPs provided.

What accounts do you need to operate?
At least – 2 accounts
1. An account with the mobile service provider (may also be known as ISP or Internet
Service Provider), such as Telstra, TPG, Optus, Aldi, or one of many others. You need
to register or sign up either on line or at the service provider’s shop.
You will need to provide credit card or bank account details from which to pay the
fees, also proof of identity, full name, date of birth, address, passport or driver’s
licence or other proof.
2. An account with Google for access to additional APPs, (applications) and other
facilities such as a Gmail address, backups etc. Again proof of identity is needed. If
you wish to purchase paid Apps you will also need to provide a credit card or bank
details. These can be added later.
What does your phone come with?
All Android phones have built in APPs for:-
Phone calls, Texting, Contacts, Internet browsing,
Taking photos, Showing photos (Gallery), Time and date,
Play store (source of more APPs), Settings (change phone settings),
Gmail, Calculator, and many others.
There are generally more built in APPs, such as Music, Radio and many others.
These can differ for each make and model of phone. These built in APPs are
permanently installed and are not uninstallable (without serious intrusion), but you
don’t have to use them. Some may already be shown on the main screen/s, but can be
removed from the main screen/s if not needed. Others can be added to the main
screen as required.
There can be so many that they are often called “bloatware”.
You can start an APP by tapping on it from either the main screens (more convenient)
or the APPs screens.
Holding the Home button for 2 or 3 seconds will display all recently used APPs. You
can then quickly open any APP by tapping on it. You can clear all recent APPs by
tapping on the garbage bin icon at the bottom.
More on using the phone later ----.

Setting up The following instructions are intended as a general guide. If you are
unfamiliar with mobile phones you may need additional help.
1. Install the SIM card, some cards need to be activated, the supplier will advise.
Many Android phones also have a socket to add extra memory by installing a Micro S
card. Follow any instructions for activating the SIM card.
Very important
You must keep a record of your accounts, account user names (special names chosen
at the time of activation), passwords and any reference numbers etc in a safe place.
If you lose such details it can be cumbersome to recover them.
2. Date and time settings. These are normally set to location of Sydney/Canberra
Australia and automatic time and date. This uses network provided time zone settings
to keep your clock accurate and also make changes for daylight saving.
3. Setting up email. You can set up an email address through your provider or via
web mail through Gmail or Yahoo. There are advantages and disadvantages for both
provider and web mail accounts. Many people have setup email accounts for both to
get the best of both worlds. You can get help settings these up.
4. Other settings. You can also set up security settings to protect your phone from
unauthorised usage by a password, swipe, pin number or fingerprint. These can be
setup or changed at any time.
The phone can be left with open access. More on this later.
