home screens
The main home screen is displayed after the telephone starts up, and any key was pressed. This home screen is the starting point for operating the telephone service using the display. A number of useful display elements, for example the status information widget, are already provided.
To display another home screen, use your fingertip to drag the home screen to the right or to the left.
Five different home screens are available. They are arranged side by side.
You can add apps and widgets to customise your home screens to suit your own particular requirements.
If you have exited a home screen by using the telephone, you can use the navigation keys (home and back keys) to return to it at any time.
Apps and Widgets on the home screens
When the telephone is supplied, some apps and widgets are already present on the main home screen and the left-hand favourites bar.

Touch Function Keys on the home screens
Touch function keys
In addition to the programmable function keys with LEDs on the right of the device, you can use the Functions widget to create up to 10 touch function keys on the home screens and the favourites bars.
Notes:
The touch function keys you add to the home screens are only displayed on the home screen to which they were added.
The touch function keys you add to the favourites bars are displayed on every home screen.
 
The function key assignment option opens automatically when you add the Functions widget to a home screen or a favourites bar. You find more detailed information about setting up and using function keys in the Functions> Function name > Set up and use function key section.
After a touch function key has been assigned, a symbol will appear to identify the selected function. A symbol that is crossed out indicates a function that has been disabled. A luminous, coloured dot on the right under the symbol represents a luminous LED. An animated, coloured dot to the right below the symbol represents a blinking LED.
Tap on the function symbol to run the stored function.
Important: Some functions are only available when used on a PBX. These functions must first be configured in the PBX. It may be necessary to grant permission to use the functions.
The following functions can be assigned to the touch function keys:
