This introductory lesson
will cover the basics of using the AARP RealPad tablet.
It is important to know
how to navigate
so that you can explore
the RealPad features.
We will examine the toolbar
which provides access
to everything you need
including a number of short help videos to get you started.
This is the home screen.
The black bar at the bottom
of the screen
is the navigation bar.
There are three icons
in the middle
of the navigation bar.
The back icon,
the home icon,
and the open apps icon.
Tap the open apps icon
to see all of the apps
that are currently running
on your RealPad.
To close an open app,
swipe left or right across it.
Closing apps that you
aren't currently using
can conserve your battery.
Tap an app to open it.
Tap the back icon to return
