Working with apps

You can open and switch among numerous apps: Android manages your tablet's resources for you so you don't need to
quit one to get the most out of another one. You can learn about how your apps memory. You can also view and work
with the files and other items you've downloaded in such apps as Browser and Google Mail.

Opening and switching apps

Home's Apps screen has icons for all of the apps on your tablet, including any apps that you downloaded and installed
from Android Market or other sources.
When you open an app, the other apps you've been using don't stop; they keep on running: playing music, opening
webpages, and so on. You can quickly switch among your apps, to work with several at once. The Android operating
system and apps work together to ensure that apps you aren't using don't consume resources unnecessarily,
stopping and starting them as needed. For this reason, there's no need to stop apps unless you're certain that one you
downloaded is misbehaving. For details about how apps use memory and how you can manage them, see "Managing
how apps use memory" on page 33.
See "Market" on page 88 to learn how to discover and install additional apps (including productivity tools, utilities,
games, references, and many other kinds of apps) on your tablet.
