hi all!

Lets try this: as more and more Jolla C's are delivered, there will be lots of questions of usability etc. This post is a wiki and intended for small questions / advice on all users. Post your question as "answer" and your answer as "comment".

My advice is: theres a neat flashlight app inside notification screen settings, you dont have to DL additional app.

Question 1: How do I change background picture / create personal ambience with own picture?

Question 2: Settings > Lock Acreen allows user to pick three actions to lock screen's pulley menu but my chosen ones dont show there. Wonder what's wrong?

Question 3: How do I close a random app? I was able to use close by swiping from top to bottom on Jolla 1, wasn't I?

  1. Go to the gallery app, choose a picture, then from the pulley menu choose "Create ambiance".

  2. No idea yet. Are you sure you're looking at the lock screen, and not the home screen? shut the display for a while, and then double tab / swipe across the screen to wake the device. Then the apps are found in the top pulley, at least for me.

  3. You can enable top-down swipe closing in settings->gestures, or close your apps by long-pressing in the home screen and then tapping the small "X" under app cover.

EDIT:

Hopefully these images will clarify the 2. point; first, the lock screen pulldown menu (activate by swiping top-down on the screen, not from the edge): image description

Ambiance changer, (activate by swiping from the top edge): image description

  1. When I do this, I get lock icon + Salamander ambience as my pulley menu "choices"??

@t0mps0 how does that happen in the 1. ? What exactly did you do? There is also settings->ambiences, where you can star/unstar ambiences you want to show up in the top-down ambience changer.
