17. STOPPING APPS
Sometimes when you have been using Android™ for a while, it may hold a number of
applications in active memory and slow down. You can stop individual applications or
stop all of them to give more space to working memory. You can also see which
applications are preventing the device from sleeping or which ones are waking it up
too often.
18. WIDGETS
Widgets are small applications that run continuously on one of the five home screen panels. Below are
some of the widgets that may already be on your device. To add a
widget, find an empty area on one of the five panels and hold your
finger down there. Select Widgets, and then select the desired one. To
delete a widget from one of the screens, hold down on it and drag it
toward the applications tab where it will change to a trash icon. When
the widget is on top of the trash and turns red, let off of it and it will be deleted (the same is true for any
screen shortcut). To get more widgets, go to the AppsLib store where you can find free and purchasable
widgets that add a variety of functions to your ARCHOS.
18.1. GOOGLE SEARCH
A quick way to enter a search term for a Google Internet search.
18.2. MUSIC
A quick method to access your music instead of opening the Music player.
There are also similarly looking widgets for the Gallery (photo viewing) and
the Video player.
18.3. ANALOGUE CLOCK
An alternative clock.
18.4. POWER CONTROL
This very useful widget allows you to easily shut on/off modules of the ARCHOS that take up power.
You can thus extend the usable battery charge of your device. From the left to right.
