Creating Shortcuts
Shortcuts are different from the Home screen Widgets.
Shortcuts can access a specific contact, activate a
feature, action, or launch an application.
To add a shortcut from the Application Tab:
1. Press to access the Home screen.
2. Select a location (screen) for your new shortcut by
scrolling across your available screens until you
reach the desired one. (See “Home Screen
Overview” on page 28.)
3. Tap tab to reveal all your current applications.
By default, the applications are listed in a Grid
view.
4. Scroll down through the list and locate your
desired application.
5. Touch and hold the onscreen icon. This creates an
immediate shortcut of the selected icon and closes
the Applications screen. The new shortcut then
appears to hover over the Home screen.
6. While holding the onscreen icon, position it on the
current screen. Once complete, release the screen
to lock the shortcut into its new position.
To add a shortcut via the Home screen:
1. Press to access the Home screen.
2. Touch and hold on an empty area of the screen.
Note: The Email application can access both Exchange
Server-based email (such as Work email) and other
Internet-based email providers such as Yahoo! and
Gmail.
Note: The same shortcut can be added to any of the
available screens (Home or Extended). The application
you add to the screen will still appear within the
Applications screen.
