IF SOMETHING LOOKS DIFFERENT
A little help along the way.

Check that this guide covers your device and software. If the names do not match, use the manufacturer’s instructions linked below for your model.

Use Previous step or select a step number above. This changes the guide only; it does not undo anything on your device.

They are example screens showing exactly where to tap. Your names, apps, wallpaper and layout may look a little different, but the options you need are the same. Some pictures show what you should see after a step.
