Among the entertainment tabs on the home page there's a 'For You' option, which is handy in that it contains all of your recently used apps.

USB interface in mobile devices may be used for different purposes such as battery charging, using the device as a mass storage, host, etc. bit CPUs provide better performance than 32-bit ones, which on their part perform better than 16-bit processors. At first, it’s easy to think you simply didn’t tap the right place onscreen, but after a while it’s clear the device simply can’t keep up with your inputs.
