Tip of the day

Navigate to Settings > System > Shortcuts. You can enable "swipe closing", a gesture used inside any application to close it with a swipe down from above the display.

Below that option you can add 3 shortcuts which are shown in a pulley menu on top of your lock screen. Pick any Sailfish OS or Android apps you want, to access them quickly after unlocking your phone:

After your selections, there's no need to save - you can simply close the settings. Try it by swipe from top this time, then flick down once to return to your lock screen, and pull down slowly to access your new, customized menu:

Instead of slow pull, you can do a faster flick gesture to open the whole menu, just like it's shown above, and tap on your favorite apps. "Silence sounds" option is there by default, and above that you find your selected apps.

Make it yours!
