Open and Switch Applications

Multi-tasking is easy with Android™. Opened applications can keep running
in the background when you open another application. There's no need to
quit an application before opening another. You can easily switch among
several open applications. Android manages each application, pausing and
starting them as needed to ensure that unused applications don't waste
your phone's resources.
To open an application:
Simply tap its icon on the screen.
TIP You can customize your Home screen with shortcuts to the applications you use most
often. Applications are located on the Applications screen, but you can add an application
shortcut to your Home screen for faster access. No matter where the icon is, on the
Applications screen or your Home screen, just tap it to open and use it. See Add
Application Icons to the Home Screen on page 38 for more information.
To open multiple applications:
1. Tap an application icon to open it.
2. Press .
