Managing apps
Select the “options” icon and then select in the lower right corner of the screen
“manage apps” to open the apps management tool.
The downloaded tab displays the apps that you have installed on the tablet.
The tab “on SD card” displays the installed apps on the SD card.
The tab “running” displays the apps that are currently running (see chapter multi-
tasking). Every running app uses an amount of processor- and memory capacity.
So in order to maintain the speed of the tablet, just open only those apps you
really need.
The tab “all” displays all apps, irrespective of their location.
When you tap on an app in one of the following tabs: “downloaded”, “SD card” or
“all”, the app information will be displayed and the following options will appear:
“Force stop”: this option kills the app, this is useful when the app is running but
not working anymore.
“Uninstall”: this option removes the app from the tablet.
“Disable”: this option disables an app. With this feature it is possible to disable
apps like the keyboard, internet browser etc. This feature is only available for the
pre-installed apps.
“Clear data”: this option deletes all data that is stored in the app like, accounts /
passwords, files, databases and settings.
“Move to SD card”: this option obtains more internal memory space because the
app goes to the SD card. If the SD card isn't inserted, then the app can’t be
used.
“Clear cache”: this option clears the cache, like saved websites on the internet
browser.
“Launch by default”: this option selects an app as default app. For example, if
you have installed two photo viewers and you always want to use A instead of B
then select A as launch by default.
In the tab “running” the following options will appear:
“Stop”: this option stops an app. As the app will not be available for multi-tasking
anymore until you restart it, you save memory and processor capacity.
“Report”: if some errors occur during usage of the app, select this option to send
a report to the creator, enabling them to analyze the problem.
System settings
On the home screen tap on the “options” icon and then tap on “system settings” to

Wireless & networks
Wi-Fi
Move the Wi-Fi bar to “off” to deactivate the Wi-Fi antenna.
Move the Wi-Fi bar to “on” to activate the Wi-Fi antenna. The antenna starts to
scan for networks automatically.
When the Wi-Fi antenna is on, all available Wi-Fi networks are displayed. Tap on the
network of your choice to connect. Networks with a lock require a password. If you
are connected to a network, the network will be marked as "connected".
