Home screen
Adapted from Wikipedia · Explorer experience
A home screen is the first thing you see when you turn on a device like a smartphone. It looks like a welcome mat for your gadgets!
On a home screen, you’ll find little pictures called icons. These icons are links to different applications and tools you can use. You can move and arrange these icons however you like.
Many home screens also show small messages called notifications. These messages tell you about new things happening on your device, like a new picture or a message from a friend.
Think of the home screen as your personal dashboard. It’s where you start to explore everything your device can do!
