Locking and unlocking the screen

When your device is on and left idle for a set period of time, the screen darkens to

save battery power and locks automatically. This lock prevents unwanted actions on

the touchscreen when you are not using it. When you buy your device, a basic screen

swipe lock is already set. This means that you have to swipe in any direction from the

middle of the screen to unlock it. You can change the security settings later and add

other kinds of locks. See

beyond the regular screen display width. The number of Home screen panes is

represented by a series of dots at the top of the Home screen. The highlighted dot

shows the pane that you are currently in.
