Small apps

A small app is a shortcut used for applications and widgets. You can get quick
access to the small apps at any time using the favorites bar. A small app only takes
up a small area of your screen, so you can interact with a small app and another
application at the same time on the same screen. For example, you can have a web
page open and then open the Calculator small app on top of it and perform
calculations. You can download more small apps from Google Play™.
