View And Work With Notifications - HP Veer User Manual

IMPORTANT If you delete an account from your smartphone using the
Accounts app, all data is removed from all apps on your smartphone associated
with the account. The account itself still exists online. For example, if you delete an
Exchange account using the Accounts app, all your Exchange data is removed
from Email, Contacts, Calendar, and Tasks. If you want to delete data only from
one app served by the account—for example, you want to delete the calendar
events but keep the contacts—simply turn that app off for that account.

View and work with notifications

Notifications show up at the bottom of the screen to notify you of new
voicemail and messages, upcoming appointments, missed calls, application
updates, and more. Some notifications also display app controls, such as
music playback controls, when you are not in the app itself.
There are several kinds of notifications:
Banner alert: This is a notification that appears in a small strip at the
bottom of the screen. Some banner alerts appear as confirmation of an
action—for example, to confirm that text was selected or copied. Others
notify you of an item you can act on—for example, a missed call or an
incoming text message. For these alerts, if you do not tap the alert after a
few seconds, it becomes an icon in the lower-right portion of the screen. Tap
the bottom of the screen to display the alerts as dashboard items.
54 Chapter 4 : Work with applications
Dashboard item: The dashboard provides an expanded view of all
notifications you can act on. For example, you can tap a voicemail
dashboard item to check your voicemail, or a calendar dashboard item to
open your calendar.
If the dashboard item has a number next to it, the number indicates how
many items are included in the notification—how many voicemail or email
messages you have, and so on.
