Glossary of Terms
airplane mode
A mode in which all the wireless services on your phone are turned off.
Wireless services include the phone used for making and receiving calls, the
Wi-Fi feature, and Bluetooth ® wireless technology. See Turn wireless
services off (airplane mode).
application menu
A menu hidden in the upper-left corner of the screen that lists items
available in an application, such as cut, copy, and paste (where available);
preferences; and application help. To open the application menu, drag down
from the upper-left corner of the phone (above the screen) onto the screen,
or tap the application name in the upper-left corner of the screen. See Open
the application menu for details. See also connection menu.
application search
A search feature that is available after you open certain applications. To
search, simply begin typing a search term when the list view is displayed—
for example, a contact name or phone number, the subject text of an email
message, or a few words from a memo. See also Just Type.
application update
An update from the developer of an application you bought through App
Catalog on your phone. You can check for application updates manually.
Additional fees may apply. See Update the Palm ® webOS TM operating
system.
back
The gesture you use to move up one level from a detailed view to a more
general view of the application you’re working in. The back gesture is a
quick swipe from right to left in the gesture area. For example, when you
finish reading an email message, make the back gesture to close the
message and return to your list of messages. Or when you finish writing a
memo, make the back gesture to close and save the memo and return to the
display of all your memos. See Go up one level in an app (back gesture).
Making the back gesture is also the way you save your work in many apps. If
you don’t see a Done button, make the back gesture to save your work.
card
A minimized view of an open application. You can easily move among and
reorder cards in Card view. To reduce the app you’re working in to a card,
tap the center of the gesture area, or flick up once from the gesture area. Tap
a card to restore the full-screen view of the application and continue
working in it. See also Card view. A group of related cards appears in Card
view as a card stack. See Work with stacked cards for information.
Card view
The view on your phone that displays all open applications as minimized
cards, allowing you to easily move among and reorder them. The
background of Card view is your wallpaper. Don’t confuse Card view with
the Launcher (see Launcher), which shows you all the apps installed on your
phone, not just the open ones. To get to Card view when an app is displayed
full-screen, flick up from the gesture area to the screen, or tap the center of
the gesture area.
connection menu
A menu hidden in the upper-right corner of the screen that lets you turn on/
off wireless connection features such as Bluetooth ® wireless technology and
your wireless service provider’s network. To open the connection menu,
drag down from the upper-right corner of the phone (above the screen)
onto the screen, or tap the upper-right corner of the screen. See Open the
connection menu for details. See also application menu and airplane mode.
