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.
