Widgets are like miniature apps that you can often interact with on the home screen. For example, the BBM widget
shows a small view of your current chats. The Bookmarks widget shows all of the websites that you have bookmarked so
that you can open them right from the home screen.

Shortcuts help you perform the tasks that you do the most. For example, if you frequently write email, you can set up an
email shortcut. Tapping the shortcut opens an email composer.
